# Introduction

Welcome to the official documentation of the **Dropshipping** plugin by Hubyte for Shopware 6.

## What does this plugin do?

The Dropshipping Plugin automates order forwarding to suppliers or manufacturers who can be used as suppliers in your Shopware store. As soon as an order reaches a configured status, emails with all order-relevant information are automatically sent to the responsible supplier(s).

### Core features

* **Automatic order forwarding** – Suppliers are notified automatically when an order status changes
* **Flexible supplier management** – Create dedicated suppliers or use manufacturers as suppliers
* **CSV and XML export** – Send order data as file attachments to suppliers
* **DHL integration** – Automatic creation of DHL shipping labels (requires DHL Versand by Pickware)
* **Minimum order value** – Supplier-specific minimum order value with cart validation
* **Test mode** – Redirect all emails to a test address
