WIll ZenCart place orders my affiliate programs?

I just installed ZenCart and I am featuring products from a few affiliate programs like Amazon.

When my customers sign up and place an order, will Amazon (or the appropriate program) be paid and informed to ship the product (and give me my affiliate commission)?

Not automatically - unless there is a 3rd party module that has programming to make these connections in the downloads area

What if you have Amazon & Walmart and a customer comes in from Amazon and buys an item from your Amazon listing and also another from the Walmart listing???

That's what I'm worried about, I have multiple affiliate programs going on and I was hoping to be able to allow customers to order all the items they want, (regardless of whether they're coming from Amazon or WalMart etc.) and to purchase the items through my shopping cart and to have the affiliate commission and shipping happen automatically.

Sorry, but Zen Cart is designed to sell your own inventory - not someone elses.

In this case, can anyone recommend an opensource 3rd party module which can be programmed to make these connections for me?

Or can anyone recommend another type of CMS which allows orders to be made from multiple affiliate programs through my site?

I have seen a couple but they are not opensource!!

To program this is DIFFICULT!!!

Say I order a dozen things and you have a dozen affiliates things, and I happen to order one from each -

There are 12 shipping fees, 12 packages arriving at my door, and so forth. not to mention how the program decides all of this

In that case, I may need to find a solution separate from ZenCart.

Thank you for clearing me up on this, I've been trying to figure this out for a while.
