The Ship Via option determines from where the product will be shipped. There are three options available: Grower, Warehouse, and Warehouse Cross-Dock. This article explains each option in detail.

Grower

This option was created for orders that are shipped directly from the vendor to the final customer. This option is available for Prebooks and Standing Orders and you will find it on the edition screen for both options or right when you're creating a new Prebook or Standing Order.

Important

 If this option is selected, the system will not take into account the AWB freight, handling costs, nor inbound truck freight in the landed cost calculation in order to suggest a selling price. The system will only consider the flower cost and the GPM.


Warehouse 

Shipping items via warehouse means that these items will be sent from the vendor to any of the importer's warehouse locations; these items will be processed through the inventory and shipped to the final customer from the warehouse. This process doesn't have any special markings on the product, labels or printed documents.

Warehouse Cross-Dock


 


Buyers will be able to identify orders from the Bulk Purchasing Mode with the Ship Via filter:



Ship Date Estimation

When the Ship Via grower option is selected, the system won't take into account the ports nor the vendor shipping schedule for calculating the Ship Date. The Ship Date shall be identical to the prebook Truck Date, since the product will be shipped directly to the final customer.


In addition, the vendor will be able to view the following information from the Confirm PO's tab:

  • Customer Name.

  • Customer Shipping address.

  • Customer Code.

This information will be printed on the Shipping Labels and the Purchase Order PDF file.

Important!

The system will automatically mark boxes that are sent directly from the Vendor to the Customer as "SW" (Shipped Warehouse) right after they're added to the AWB. You will be able to view these changes under the Tracking > AWB Summary.


User roles: Admin, Allocations, Procurement Manager, Sales, and Sales Manager.
