Quirky Chocolate label generation application – Python script automating batch order fulfilment and PDF wrapper printing

Business Challenge

Quirky Chocolate engaged Flyte to optimise the process of fulfilling batch web orders. The existing process was slow and relied on a number of manual inputs which made it difficult to scale over time.

The Solution

Flyte developed a MacOs application using python that reads the batched incoming orders and carry out each of the manual steps automatically

Python Script

The solution was to develop a MacOs application using python that reads the batched incoming orders and carry out each of the manual steps automatically.

The application will:

  • Review all ordered products and determine the appropriate wrapper size for each.
  • Find and merge the correct wrapper design and ingredient combination into a single PDF for each variation.
  • Print the order number in the required location and include the quantity required to the name of the generated file.

The Result

Flyte delivered a streamlined solution improving the efficiency of the fulfilment process

With this solution in place, the number of manual steps in the order fulfilment process have been vastly reduced, with only the print submission to be manually triggered, so the Quirky Chocolate team can redistribute this effort towards other key business processes.

The order processing and printing automation project with Flyte went smoothly. Every day we are benefiting from the automation they put in place. Not only does it save the team a lot of time but has helped to significantly reduce errors. The success of the project was due to the brief – we were very specific about what we wanted to achieve.

In return the Flyte developers met the brief extremely well and the whole project stayed on track and on budget. Staying on budget was a critical part of the success of the project for us and why I have no hesitation recommending Flyte.
