Ship the entire order at once – or partially, as items become available.
With Full or Partial Shipping in Rackbeat, you can handle your sales orders flexibly and adapt deliveries to your stock availability and customer needs. You decide whether an order should be shipped in full or split into multiple shipments over time.
Once a sales order is confirmed, you can create one or more shipments directly from the order. This allows you to:
1. ship the entire order at once
2. ship parts of an order if not all items are in stock
3. manage backorders without losing overview
4. reduce customer waiting time with partial deliveries
When an order is shipped partially, it is automatically marked as partially shipped, giving you clear visibility into what has been sent and what is still pending.
Rackbeat ensures that all shipments are linked to the order. When the remaining items arrive in stock, you can easily create a new shipment on the same order and complete the delivery.
This means you can:
– always keep track of backorders
– avoid over- or under-shipping
– complete orders as goods are received
– ensure accurate inventory adjustments with every shipment
You can also download picking lists for the warehouse and delivery notes for customers, making both internal handling and customer communication easier.
If plans change, you can cancel a shipment and release the reserved items, making them available for other orders. This provides extra flexibility in a busy daily workflow where priorities can shift.
In short: Full or Partial Shipping in Rackbeat gives you the flexibility to deliver smarter, maintain control, and ensure smooth order and inventory management – even when not everything can be shipped at once.
