Excellence in eCommerce fulfillment will help you compete

eCommerce fulfillment is about keeping the promises you make when you accept customers’ orders. Only an integrated information system can give you the visibility you need to:

• Make realistic promises.
• Follow through with allocation, picking, packing and shipping.
• Run efficient supply chain practices such as inventory and warehouse management, transportation management, distribution, and inventory optimization.
• Use business intelligence (BI) and analytics to identify issues and challenges early, resolve situations before they impact customer service, and direct performance improvement efforts that help you maintain your competitive edge.

Acumatica ERP for retail companies provides the functionality you need to manage inventory, purchasing, manufacturing, customer orders and CRM, and accounting. Acumatica also offers leading-edge Business Intelligence based on Microsoft Power BI. All of this functionality is fully integrated to give you access to real-time information across your entire enterprise.

Depending on the nature of the transaction, Acumatica allows sales representatives to select from multiple fulfillment types, including carryout, pick-up, ship, install, and online fulfillment. You can determine fulfillment types at the line level, which is ideal for environments in which an initial carry out sale is followed by a delivery or shipment.

For example, Acumatica integrated with FusionPOS™ creates a sales order for each transaction (Accounting Customers) or roll-up transaction (Cash or Marketing Customers). Payments are applied to the open sales order. Fusion then matches the Fulfillment Type with your accounting system’s Ship Method, allowing items flagged for future shipment to remain as an open sales order. For items otherwise flagged, Fusion can auto post the shipment or invoice depending on client preferences.
