Controlling the Release of Orders
Providing the capability to control when orders are released is also available with NetSuite Advanced Order Management. Meeting the demands of customers’ orders, preserving safety stock and increasing inventory when items are depleted is necessary in the order fulfillment process. Using this software solution offers complete transparency with this process, allowing you to understand the fulfillment status and make exceptions to orders when required.
Adding Store Pickup Meets Specific Customer Demands
Having complete control over the fulfillment process and the locations where items come from allows you to offer store pickup and mixed orders. Once your warehouse is made aware of a pickup order, the fulfillment request is generated automatically and notifies the store of the order. After the specific items are selected from inventory, the customer is notified to pick up their merchandise. Streamlining this process creates the efficiency and transparency required to meet customers’ demands when they need the items they’re buying ASAP. Offering this ability can make you the company they turn to when shopping.
Saving Sales and Increasing Revenues
Turning each store into a warehouse allows you to fulfill customer demands more effectively. Increasing inventory turnover and reducing markdowns should affect your bottom line positively. Controlling the items and locations in your shipping process allows you to operate each store intelligently and choose the appropriate one best suited to fulfill your selling products. Including the functionality to handle exceptions and inventory discrepancies helps alleviate fulfillment challenges as well.
Offering Increased Visibility of Your Fulfillment Operations
Using your sales order and return data to understand more about your fulfillment process can give you a deeper insight into its efficiency. Combining this with fulfillment-request reporting should allow you to know where you can improve.
