Edit Location

Purpose: Use the Edit Location screen to work with a location, including the address, telephone numbers, and other related information such as the store rank and hours.

Location relationships: See Data Hierarchy for an overview of the Order Broker organization, system, and location hierarchy. Also, see the Locations screen for more information on how locations are created in Order Broker.

How to display this screen: Click the edit icon (Illustrates the edit icon.) for a location at the Locations screen.

Note:

  • Only users with Locations authority can display this screen. See the Role Wizard for more information.

  • When you create or update locations through an import, entries you make at this screen may be overwritten the next time the import runs.

Updating a location

Update any of the fields described below and click Save, or click Cancel to return to the Locations screen without making any changes.

Note:

Required, optional fields: The Name is always required. All of the remaining information on this screen is optional, although the screen displays a warning message before you can create a location without a State/Province, Country, and Postal Code, because these fields are required to use the proximity locator. The remaining fields are optional, however:

  • If you use the proximity locator in your organization, you should always enter a valid address, regardless of whether the location is subject to proximity locator searching (for example, a warehouse).
  • Canadian postal codes should be entered with a space: for example, L5R 4H1 rather than L5R4H1.
  • locateitems response: the name and address information for the location that is displayed in the locate items response is derived from your entries at this screen.
  • ADSI integration in Store Connect: The name and address may also be submitted to ADSI when the store associate ships an item, based on the setting of the Shipping Label Return Address specified at the Store Connect Preferences screen. The return address location must include:

    • contact name and company name

    • street address line 1

    • U.S. city, state/province, and postal code

    • phone number of 10 positions, plus any formatting (for example, (508) 555-1111). The store location phone number is used if there is not a day or evening phone number for the order shipping address

  • submit order request for a pickup order: If a submit order request for a pickup order originates from a location without an address that includes a valid postal code, Order Broker returns an error indicating that the location does not have sufficient inventory of the requested item.

Labor Cost

Used to shop an order for fulfillment or sourcing as part of the weighted brokering method (see Submit Order Request for Delivery Order (Weighted Brokering) for background) when determining the cost to pick, pack, and ship an order. Your entry can be a maximum of 19 positions, including up to 15 positions before the decimal and 4 positions after. It can also be 0 (0.000), but cannot be a negative number, and should not include a currency symbol. Optional.

You can also update the labor cost through the Location Bulk Updates wizard.

Gift Wrap

Select this flag to indicate that the location supports gift wrap; otherwise, leave it unselected. It defaults to unselected.

Used when? If the Use Attribute Rules flag is selected for the organization at the Preferences screen, locations are filtered based on this setting when the LocateItems request, SubmitOrder request, or ProductAvailability request indicates that the item requires gift wrap, or if the order line is rejected and reshopped.

For a ship-for-pickup order, it is the pickup location that needs to support gift wrapping rather than the sourcing location. See Enable Ship-For-Pickup? for background.

Note: This field is not updated through the location import, but it is updated through the LocationUpdate request message.

Geocode

If you use proximity locator and the location has a postal code, Order Broker determines a location’s latitude and longitude using either the Oracle Maps Cloud Service or the proximity location table, depending on your configuration, and saves this information as part of the location record.

Latitude

The location’s latitude. Set automatically when you create or update a location if you use proximity locator. See Proximity Locator Searching for an overview. Display-only.

Longitude

The location’s latitude. Set automatically when you create or update a location if you use proximity locator. See Proximity Locator Searching for an overview. Display-only.

Days Open

The Auto Cancel Unclaimed Pickup Orders job uses the Days Open settings to determine when to cancel an unclaimed pickup or ship-for-pickup order. Only days that are selected here are included in the calculation. See Auto-Cancel Unclaimed Orders for a discussion and setup information.

Days Open for Auto-Cancel

Use these fields to indicate which days of the week should be included to determine when a pickup or ship-for-pickup order is eligible for automatic cancellation. If a day is not selected, it is not included in the calculation.

All days of the week are available for selection.

Updating these fields: All days of the week are selected by default when you create a new location through the New Location screen, the LocationUpdate request message, or the Importing Locations through File Storage API process. You can change the settings at this screen, or through the Location Bulk Updates wizard.

If you change a location’s Days Open for Auto Cancel settings, this does not affect the Pickup By Date that has already been assigned to any order lines for the location.

Updating an existing location through the Importing Locations through File Storage API process does not update the Days Open for Auto-Cancel.
