Fulfilling and Billing Wholesale Orders
- Orders ready to be fulfilled and billed will be entered into a Zendesk ticket- with the specific day that the order needs to be shipped. (Order must be processed before 12 pm to go out that day)
- Pull up the Order Number in Netsuite
- Click on Approve
- Click on Fulfill
- Fulfillment screen will then come up
- Check every inventory line on the order and make sure the “On Hand” inventory is equal to or greater than the “Quantity” on the order
- If the On Hand inventory is less than the quantity- change the quantity to be equal to the On Hand inventory number
- If the On Hand inventory is 0- than “uncheck” the box on the line item so it will not be fulfilled ( these items will then move to backorder)
- Click on the “Shipping” Tab
- Select “Ground” for the shipping method
- Enter the “Shipping Cost”

- 13% of order total for locations East of the Mississippi
- 15% of order total for locations West of the Mississippi
- Click “Save”
- Fulfillment screen will come up again
- Click “Bill”
- If the customer is paying with a credit card- the screen will say “Cash Sale” at the top.
- Double check that credit card selected is correct
- If the customer has Terms than the screen will say “Invoice” at the top
- The order total and the shipping charges should appear in the blue window in the top right corner of the screen
- Double check that the shipping cost is the appropriate percentage based on the billed order total (depending on the fulfillment- the order total may change if some items are backordered)- We will only bill shipping costs for the items that are being fulfilled with this shipment
- If you need to adjust the shipping charge
- Click on the “Shipping” tab
- Make necessary changes to the Shipping Cost Field
- When everything is correct- Click “Save & Email”

- Call customer
- If they are able to provide you with new or updated information- make necessary changes and try to run the card again.
- If you do not get new information- the order will NOT be able to be shipped that day- Make a note in Zendesk to try to get new information
- If this happens do NOT proceed with the following steps- you are done with this order at this time
- Once the credit card is successfully run- go back to the fulfillment for that order
