How You Record the Shipment of Drop Ship Products to the Customer

You can record the delivery of a product drop shipped directly to the customer site.

When recording the shipment to the customer, use one of the following options:

  • AP Invoice option

  • ASN (advance shipment notice) option

Both options acknowledge delivery of the product and initiate downstream processing for costing and billing.

You set up the process flow option for generating drop ship receipts using the Manage Drop Ship Financial Flows page.

AP Invoice Option

Use this option for supplier sites that don't send ASNs. The arrival and entry of the AP invoice automatically initiates downstream processes to cost and bill the shipment.

ASN Option

Use this option for supplier sites that generate ASNs. The arrival of the ASN automatically initiates downstream processes to cost and bill the shipment.
