The work behind the connection

What you can do with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce connects online and store operations through customer orders, retail inventory, and commerce services.

Run customer order service across channels

Finn gives customers one coordinated answer about orders placed online, through a call center, or in a store.

Typically handled byRetail contact center and commerce operations team

Starts when

A customer asks about an order, delivery, pickup, or requested change.

What Finn handles

  1. Retrieve the Commerce customer order and its item-level payment and fulfillment details.
  2. Explain which location is handling each item and collect the customer’s requested resolution.
  3. Apply the permitted order change or assign the exact store or warehouse action through its operating process.
  4. Verify the updated order and send one complete customer response.

The result

The order and customer conversation agree, with location-specific exceptions explicitly owned.

Coordinate click-and-collect orders

Finn manages the customer communication and store follow-through between order acceptance and a recorded pickup.

Typically handled byStore pickup coordinator

Starts when

An order is assigned to a retail location for customer collection.

What Finn handles

  1. Read the order lines, selected store, inventory position, and pickup details.
  2. Notify the store of the picking task and track the staff’s actual acceptance and preparation.
  3. Send a ready-for-pickup message only after the store records readiness.
  4. Follow the recorded pickup or customer-requested change and update the linked service case.

The result

The pickup reaches a recorded collection or explicit exception without treating an accepted order as ready.

Follow store-fulfilled shipments to completion

Finn coordinates the administrative work behind orders shipped from retail locations.

Starts when

A Commerce order is routed to a store for shipment.

What Finn handles

  1. Read the assigned order lines, delivery terms, and available store fulfillment status.
  2. Track staff acceptance, picking, packing, and the connected carrier’s shipment reference.
  3. Resolve missing customer information and coordinate authorized order changes with the location.
  4. Report actual shipment progress and close the customer follow-up after the recorded delivery outcome.

The order has a traceable store-to-carrier journey and customer updates based on actual events.

Resolve cross-channel returns

Typically handled byReturns contact center and store service desk

Starts when

A customer wants to return or exchange an online or store purchase.

What Finn handles

The result

The cross-channel return has a consistent order and payment trail and a documented customer resolution.

Maintain assortments and product information

Typically handled byStore support desk and inventory coordinator

Starts when

A requested item is unavailable at the preferred location.

What Finn handles

  1. Check Commerce inventory availability and the item’s order and delivery constraints.
  2. Present the customer with valid pickup, shipment, or alternative-product options.
  3. Complete the accepted order path through the channel that owns it and notify the fulfilling team.
  4. Verify the order and reservation outcome instead of promising stock from an estimate alone.

Connection setup

Set up the connection around your work.

Contact Finn to discuss the records your workflow needs and the actions you want it to perform.

Your team chooses what Finn can access, what agents can change, and when a person must approve the work. The connection needs the appropriate account access and permissions from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce.

Your Commerce administrator must approve and configure the connection. Some store employee actions require an activated point-of-sale device and a signed-in employee.
