A send sale item is an item that must be shipped to a customer-specified offsite location after it is purchased.
Send sales are similar to special orders and orders because each of these transaction types may involve the direct shipment of a purchased item to a customer or third party. A send sale, however, implies that the item is in the store's saleable inventory when the purchase is made and is available at the time of purchase.
|
Note: A special order can be set up if an item is not available in the store's inventory when the purchase is made. A special order may allow a flexible payment structure between the time of purchase and receipt of the merchandise, but a send sale item must be paid in full when it is purchased.An order can be set up if an item is not available in the store's inventory when the purchase is made; however, the item must be available at another location within the store chain or warehouse. |
Your system may be configured for one-step or two-step send sale processing.
In one-step processing you enter the ship-to address and select a shipping method (if required) during the sale transaction, and no further action is required in Xstore Mobile once the transaction is completed.
In two-step processing you enter the ship-to address and select a shipping method (if required) during the sale transaction, just as performed in one-step processing. After the sale is completed, a shipping document is created automatically and must be processed as a separate step in the Back Office Shipping module.
Refer to the Oracle Retail Xstore Mobile Shipping, Receiving, and Inventory Guide for more information about completing the shipping document in the Back Office for two-step processing.
At the Sale screen, select the Context Menu button.

From the Extended Transaction menu, select the Send Sale option. You must have security privileges to add a send sale to a transaction.

If a customer is not assigned to the sale, the Customer Search form displays so that you can search for a customer to assign to the transaction.
Figure 10-5 Customer Search Form - Sale Customer
Enter your search criteria on the form and select Process to find a customer to associate with the transaction and continue with the send sale process.
This Customer Search information applies to the customer purchasing the items, not necessarily the send sale recipient. However, the customer purchasing the item may also be the recipient. Continue with step 6.
If a customer is assigned to the sale, the shipping destination prompt is displayed. Continue with step 6.
If the customer associated with the transaction has shipped items using the send sale process previously, a list of past recipients is displayed.

If the recipient of the items in this new send sale is listed, select the name from the list and press Enter.
If the recipient is not listed, select Skip.
Continue with step 6.
By default, the system may display the address information for the customer assigned to the current transaction on the shipping destination form. This allows you to quickly associate the purchasing customer's shipping address with the send sale item. If no customer is associated with the transaction, the shipping destination form fields will be blank.

If your system is set up for enhanced send sale processing, you are required to select a Ship Via shipper.
If your system is not set up for enhanced send sale processing, the Ship Via field will not be active.
|
Note: A red triangle in the upper left corner of a field indicates a required entry.When applicable, the Change Country menu option provides the ability to search for customers from countries other than the country where the store is located. For example, if you change the country to Canada, the State form field lists Canadian provinces, and if Mexico is selected as the country, then the State form field lists Mexican states. |
When the system returns to the item-entry screen, enter or scan an item ID.
The system validates every item to ensure that it meets the requirements for send sale items. Continue until you have added all the send sale items to the transaction.
Depending on your store policy, you may be prompted for an originating inventory location. If prompted, select the inventory location from which the item originated, or leave the inventory location blank to leave the location pending. Select the Process option.
