Definition
What is supplier follow-up automation?
Supplier follow-up is the routine chasing that keeps purchase orders on track: confirmations, ship dates, samples and documents. Supplier follow-up automation sends those emails on schedule, reads the replies and keeps your PO tracker current, so new dates reach your replenishment plan.

How it runs
Five steps. Four run on their own.
Step 4 waits for you. The other four run on a schedule or a trigger and write every action to a run log.
- Runs on its own
- Waits for a person
- Step 1, Automated Read open POs Promised dates, documents due, samples pending.

Your Autopilot Build turns these steps into a written spec for your accounts: triggers, rules and approval points.
What stays with a person
Prices, terms and new suppliers stay with you.
- You Step 4 of 5 You decide
Price or term changes and new suppliers.
Everything else in the flow runs on its own and is logged. You can make any rule stricter. We do not make money or listing rules looser.
Rules on every module
- Anything that spends money or changes a listing waits for your approval.
- Anything unusual goes to an analyst instead of being acted on.
- Every action is written to a run log you can read.
- One switch stops every workflow.
- Official APIs only. No scraping and no browser automation of Seller Central.
