The payout schedule fires for the marketplace

List Withdrawals returns the pending requests with the vendor and amount on each

Get Withdrawal Balance and Get Withdrawal Charges confirm the balance covers the request and what the method costs

Get Site Capabilities confirms which Dokan modules this store actually serves

The finance approver receives the batch, the totals, the charges, and every vendor whose balance falls short

The approver names which requests are paid, and Batch Update Withdrawals runs on exactly those

What This Integration Enables

Dokan turns a WooCommerce store into a marketplace, and that single change alters what automation has to be careful about. In an ordinary store the counterparty on the other side of every write is a customer. On a marketplace it is a vendor: an independent business with a store page, a commission arrangement, a payout balance, and a commercial relationship that survives the transaction. Approving a withdrawal is not updating a record, it is moving someone else's money. Suspending a vendor is not a status flag, it is taking a business offline.

The second thing worth knowing before building anything is that Dokan is not one API. The free plugin registers roughly sixty routes; a fully loaded Pro marketplace serves several times that, and which modules are installed decides what exists. That is why Get Site Capabilities is the first call rather than a diagnostic: it reports the namespaces served, the module map, and whether the webhook routes the trigger needs are present. A 404 on this platform usually means "that module is not installed here", and a flow that knows the difference behaves very differently from one that treats it as a bug.

FlowRunner agents run the marketplace surface across vendors, catalog, orders, shipments, withdrawals, coupons, reviews, refunds, and reports, with human-in-the-loop steps placed where the consequence lands on a vendor rather than on a row.

Without FlowRunner

Payouts reconstructed by hand Someone opens the vendor dashboard, checks balances one at a time, and approves in the admin panel

Vendor onboarding is a mailbox Applications arrive as messages and a person retypes them into store records

Moderation waits for someone to look Held reviews and refund requests sit until a marketplace manager remembers the queue

With FlowRunner

Payouts arrive assembled Requests, balances, charges, and shortfalls are gathered into one reviewable batch

Applications become stores An approved application creates the vendor, checks the store slug, and sends the onboarding message

Queues come to the manager Held reviews and refund requests are screened and routed, and only the judgment calls surface

Use Case Scenarios

Payout day, assembled rather than reconstructed

On a schedule the agent calls List Withdrawals for pending requests, then Get Withdrawal Balance and Get Withdrawal Charges per vendor so the numbers in front of the approver are the platform's own rather than a spreadsheet's. Requests that exceed the available balance, or whose method carries a charge the vendor may not expect, are called out separately. The whole batch goes to the finance approver in Slack. Approval runs Batch Update Withdrawals once. What changed is not the speed of the approval, it is that the approver sees the same numbers Dokan does at the moment they decide.
An application becomes a working store

Vendor applications arrive through a form in Typeform. The agent reads each response, calls Check Store URL Availability so the store slug does not collide with an existing one, creates the vendor, and sends the onboarding instructions with Email Vendor. The account stays inactive until the documents clear, at which point Update Vendor Status brings the store live. Nothing about the application is retyped, and the slug collision that would otherwise be discovered after launch is discovered before it.
Order events that reach the right vendor

On Store Event fires for a created order, and because WooCommerce delivers store-wide rather than per vendor, the flow resolves the vendor itself before doing anything else. The order and its lines are appended to a reconciliation sheet in Google Sheets, high-value orders are flagged to the operations team, and tracking added later by the vendor goes on with Create Order Shipment. The trigger delivers everyone's orders. Sorting them out is the flow's job, and it is a job worth doing once rather than in every downstream step.

Human-in-Loop Highlight

Batch Update Withdrawals approves a set of vendor payout requests in one call, and two things make it the operation on this page worth stopping for. The first is obvious: the money belongs to the vendors, not to the marketplace, and once a payout is approved the marketplace is paying out against a balance the platform computed rather than one a person checked. The second is particular to Dokan. The operations a flow would reach for to unwind a mistake are module dependent, and Get Site Capabilities is the only way to know which of them this install actually has. A recovery path that exists on a fully loaded Pro marketplace may simply not be registered on the store the agent is running against. So the agent gathers and stops: "11 withdrawal requests pending, 4,912.00 total. Two vendors are requesting more than their available balance, both listed below. Bank transfer charges apply to seven. This store reports the refunds module as absent. Approve all, approve the nine that clear, or hold?" The finance approver answers. An agent can compute a payout batch perfectly well. It should not be the thing that decides to send it.

Triggers

Event Triggers

On Store Event Fires on WooCommerce's own store events for orders, products, coupons, and customers, covering creation, update, and deletion for each. Dokan publishes no outbound webhook of its own, so this is built on the WooCommerce core Dokan requires, and registering it needs an administrator or shop manager credential. Deliveries are store wide rather than per vendor, so resolve the vendor inside the flow before acting on an event.
