The splitShippingGroupsFulfillment chain splits shipping groups according to the fulfillment systems that handle each of the particular items within each shipping group.
The following sections describe each processor in the pipeline chain.
retrieveShippingGroupsToBeSplit
Iterates through the shipping groups contained within the order and determines if the entire shipping group can be fulfilled by one fulfiller. It does this using the isShippingGroupSingleFulfiller method of the OrderFulfillmentTool. Those shipping groups that cannot be fulfilled by one fulfiller are placed as an ArrayList in the pipeline’s pParam map parameter, with the key being the pipeline’s SHIPPINGGROUPIDS constant.
