# Tag draft orders when the invoice is sent

When a draft order's status changes to invoice_sent, add the tag invoice-sent to it. A starting point for payment reminders and for keeping a quote pipeline tidy.

One trigger, built-in Shopify actions only, no other app needed. Nothing in it is specific to a store, so it works as soon as it is imported.

![The workflow in Shopify Flow: Tag draft orders when the invoice is sent](https://cdn-dev.eu.codecreationlabs.cloud/crm-tool/uploads/SjJ78gKLnLlocopCui3Cs62dJbGZ7F1n/1cf09a4691d3ca1d.png)
*The complete workflow as it looks in Shopify Flow.*

## What it needs

- The app's permission **Draft Order Data Access**. See [Permissions and data access](https://docs.workflow-trigger-extensions.app/permissions-and-data-access.md).
- Nothing else: turning the workflow on switches the trigger **Draft Order Status Changed** on in the app.

Install the Workflow Trigger Extensions app and grant Draft Order Data Access on its Permissions page. Turning this workflow on switches the trigger on in the app.

## Get the workflow

1. Download the `.flow` file attached at the bottom of this page.
2. In your Shopify admin open **Flow**, click **Import** and choose the file.
3. Check the steps, then click **Turn on workflow**.

The file is an export from Shopify Flow itself. Do not edit it by hand; change the workflow in Flow after importing it.

## How it works

1. **Draft Order Status Changed** carries `oldStatus` and `newStatus`.
2. The **Condition** checks `newStatus` **Equal to** `invoice_sent`.
3. **Add draft order tags** puts `invoice-sent` on the draft order (`draftOrder.id`).

## Make it yours

- Add a **Wait** of three days and a reminder to the sales rep.
- Add a second branch for `completed` to tell the account manager that a quote became an order.
