Global Parameters Maintenance - Order Processing Design
General
Information
This tab
screen lets you customize the way that you want order processing to
be done in your company. Order processing is one of the most
important functions in M.O.M. In brief, it is the way that you take
an order from order entry and ship it to your customer. In M.O.M.,
order processing consists of a number of different stages through
which an order must pass before it finally ships to your
customer.
-
Credit Card Approval - for those orders with credit card payment,
the process of approving and charging the amounts.
-
Picking - the process of printing picking paperwork and pulling the
items off the shelves for each order.
-
Packing - the process of printing packing slips and boxing the
order.
-
Gift Certificate Printing - the process of printing any gift
certificates that are ordered by customers.
-
Box Labeling - the process of printing any special labelling
paperwork for the box, including shipping labels, airbills, COD
tags, etc.
-
Notices - the process of printing customer notices, both for orders
and non-order situations.
-
Drop Shipping - the process of sending purchase orders to the
designated suppliers of each order that are to be sent directly to
each customer.
-
Shipping - the process of informing the designated carriers of each
package that is to be shipped to each customer.
- Invoicing - the
process of printing invoices for those orders for which the invoice
needs to be mailed.
Each stage
is "latched" to the previous one, and an order must pass through
each stage before going to the next one. And, as new orders enter
the first stage after order entry, there are other orders that have
already worked their way further through the stages. As a result,
it is possible to have many different orders at many different
stages at any one time.
