If\u00a0you have a sales order that you’re not going to fully ship, inFlow On-Premise 3.6 can help record\u00a0which\u00a0products you’re taking off the shelf today, and also tell you exactly when these products were moved. Here’s how to start!<\/p>\n

Partial fulfill\u00a0(for orders without shipping)<\/h2>\n

If you don’t ship your sales orders, keep shipping turned off.\u00a0You’ll see a\u00a0Fulfill<\/em>\u00a0tab along the bottom of the order screen.<\/p>\n

Any product\u00a0going out right away to your customer should be added to this tab, and inFlow On-Premise will automatically assign it with a\u00a0Fullfill Date<\/em>\u00a0that matches the current date.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div><\/p>\n

If you don’t provide all of the products on that order at once, the\u00a0Fulfill Date<\/em>\u00a0can be helpful because it shows\u00a0exactly when a product was taken out of stock and given to your customer. This makes it easier to review large orders that may have been fulfilled over a period of days or weeks.<\/p>\n

Partial ship (for orders that have shipping)<\/h2>\n

If you ship your orders then you’ll want to\u00a0Add Shipping<\/em>\u00a0to your order. You’ll see this in the\u00a0in the top-right corner of the SALES\u00a0<\/em>tab. With shipping turned on,\u00a0you’ll see a\u00a0Pick\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Ship\u00a0<\/em>tab at the bottom of your sales order screen.<\/p>\n

Each time a product is added to the\u00a0Pick<\/em>\u00a0tab, it will be assigned a\u00a0Pick Date<\/em>\u00a0(which matches the current date)\u00a0<\/em>to reflect when it was taken off of the shelves and made ready for shipping.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div><\/p>\n

It’s important to note that inFlow On-Premise doesn’t adjust\u00a0your\u00a0Quantity on Hand<\/em>\u00a0until it has been\u00a0shipped \u2014 so if you’re trying to track when an item was removed from inventory on an order that has shipping, you’ll want to look at the\u00a0Shipped Date<\/em>\u00a0available in the\u00a0Ship<\/em>\u00a0tab.<\/p>\n

Invoicing partial orders<\/h2>\n

If you want to invoice as you ship, then please review our\u00a0article on back-ordered items<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you plan to invoice only once all items have been shipped, you’ll want to follow the steps below:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create your sales order and select the items your customer has ordered.<\/li>\n
  2. Click the\u00a0Pick<\/em>\u00a0tab and select the items that are to be shipped out.<\/li>\n
  3. Move on to the\u00a0Ship<\/em>\u00a0tab and click\u00a0Auto Fill<\/em>. Only items which have been picked will appear and you can record which box each item has been packed into.<\/li>\n
  4. Add any details such as tracking number\/ carrier in the\u00a0Shipping Details<\/em>\u00a0link at the bottom of the tab.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This order status will now appear as\u00a0Started<\/em>\u00a0(at the top right) and when you’re ready to ship out another batch of items, simply go back to the pick tab and repeat steps 3-4 as many times as necessary to ship all items out. When all the items have been shipped the status of the order will change to\u00a0Fulfilled<\/em>.<\/p>\n

    Another way to quickly choose which items have been shipped is to click the green circle beside the item and select\u00a0Shipped<\/em>. You can see this shortcut in action in our QuickTips video\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
