How to: Create a Customer Order for Shipment to Customer
This is the process where a customer wants to place a customer order to be shipped to their home or some other address.
To make a shipment order
- Add items to the transaction.
- Select an item for customer order.
- Press the Customer Order Mark button. This will highlight the currently selected item.
- Repeat steps 1 to 3 for each item to order.
- Add a member contact to the transaction. Note: You can do this at any point before you press Total, or when the Customer Order Creation panel is open (explained in step 8).
- Press Total. This will display the Ship/Collect panel with all locations that can source all the items that were marked for customer order. If no location can source the entire order, a dialog box will be displayed, asking if you wish to see where each item does exist. The order cannot be created since no location can source the entire order.
- Select the SHIP ITEMS option in the list, and then press OK. Navigate to the Customer Order Creation panel which displays information connected to this customer order.
- You can either fill out the information manually or retrieve a member contact via the Customer button.
- Verify the contact information, and press OK.
- Press OK to proceed with payment.
- The POS will prompt the user to enter a shipment cost.
- Select a payment method to complete the order and transaction.
- When the order is completed, a Retail Message appears at the sourcing location that has the highest priority and is able to source all items in the order.
Note: All shipment orders must be prepaid.
