Question about flow with a centralized distribution center

Hello, I am using your module and I think it’s great, but I have a question. My suppliers do not handle their own shipments; they deliver to a distribution center. So, if a customer places an order with multiple suppliers, the order is sent to the customer once all the suppliers have deposited their products at the distribution center, and only one charge is applied. Here’s my question: How can I keep track of which orders I already have at the distribution center and which suppliers are yet to deliver their orders?

I thought about creating a custom order status, but in this case, it wouldn’t be efficient if I have an order with more than one supplier. What do you suggest?

Greetings and thank you in advance.
