Item Fulfillments and Multiple Shipping Routes
Multiple Shipping Routes lets you ship items from the same sales order to multiple addresses with different carriers.
After you fulfill a sales order with Multiple Shipping Routes, NetSuite creates an item fulfillment for each address. The sales order fulfillment list displays each order's shipping address and corresponding shipping method. Each shipping route represents a pending item fulfillment. NetSuite displays one line for each route in the fulfillment queue.
On a sales order with Multiple Shipping Routes, click Fulfill. The following occurs:
-
The Fulfill Sales Order queue displays shipments for the order.
-
If only one shipment is pending, a new item fulfillment opens
-
If you use Bar Coding and Item Labels, Select Order Number selects the first shipment for the entered order.
If a sales order has multiple drop ship lines and Multiple Shipping Routes, NetSuite creates a purchase order for each route and vendor combination.
NetSuite generates a picking ticket for each shipping route. The Print Picking Tickets queue displays one line for each route. You'll see the same order more than one time in the queue.
