## defaultFulfillmentProcess

<GenerationInfo sourceFile="packages/core/src/config/fulfillment/default-fulfillment-process.ts" sourceLine="45" packageName="@vendure/core" since="2.0.0" />

The default <a href='/reference/typescript-api/fulfillment/fulfillment-process#fulfillmentprocess'>FulfillmentProcess</a>. This process includes the following actions:

- Executes the configured `FulfillmentHandler.onFulfillmentTransition()` before any state
  transition.
- On cancellation of a Fulfillment, creates the necessary <a href='/reference/typescript-api/entities/stock-movement#cancellation'>Cancellation</a> & <a href='/reference/typescript-api/entities/stock-movement#allocation'>Allocation</a>
  stock movement records.
- When a Fulfillment transitions from the `Created` to `Pending` state, the necessary
  <a href='/reference/typescript-api/entities/stock-movement#sale'>Sale</a> stock movements are created.



## FulfillmentProcess

<GenerationInfo sourceFile="packages/core/src/config/fulfillment/fulfillment-process.ts" sourceLine="26" packageName="@vendure/core" since="2.0.0" />

A FulfillmentProcess is used to define the way the fulfillment process works as in: what states a Fulfillment can be
in, and how it may transition from one state to another. Using the `onTransitionStart()` hook, a
FulfillmentProcess can perform checks before allowing a state transition to occur, and the `onTransitionEnd()`
hook allows logic to be executed after a state change.

For detailed description of the interface members, see the <a href='/reference/typescript-api/state-machine/state-machine-config#statemachineconfig'>StateMachineConfig</a> docs.
