Stores (Ship to Stores)

Store Master is used to set up all stores a client company will ship to. Setting up the store master will allow you to:

  • Send orders to WMS with just the store number for the ship to information.
  • Set up a default ship via for each store that needs to be used shipping if ship via is not provided on the order.
  • Use the WMS Routing Functionality - This will allow setting different routes with specific service levels with each route containing stores. Please see next section for more details on the routing functionality.
