# Overview

> Fulfill, provision, and ship the equipment a merchant boards with

Deployment endpoints cover everything that happens to physical equipment after an application is approved: the order, the devices on it, the file build each device is programmed with, the VAR sheet that identifies it to the processor, and the shipment that gets it to the merchant.

An order carries **line items** — one per device. Each line item is configured by a **file build**, provisioned against a device workflow, and identified by a **VAR sheet**. Once provisioned, line items are grouped into **shipments** that quote carrier rates, buy labels, and track delivery. Every step is recorded on the order's **event** timeline.
