Order Management

Goods are stocked in a European warehouse before orders arrive. Each order is picked, packed and handed over to a local delivery service. Fulfilment starts from a single item and connects multiple selling channels.

SELLING PLATFORMS

Connect selling channels with your warehouse

Marketplaces and owned stores: coordinate inventory, orders, dispatch and returns for each channel.

Choose your channel for preparation, launch checks and official references. Availability and connection are confirmed for your project.

One workflow for shipping, returns and resale

01 · Agree channel & data

Confirm SKU mapping, order data, stock and status updates. Validate the connection method and a test order before launch.

02 · Store & ship locally

Receive stock, pick and pack orders, then hand parcels to DHL, DPD or the agreed carrier.

03 · Inspect the return

Receive the parcel, match it to the order and assess condition and completeness against the agreed inspection plan.

04 · Approve the next step

Restock, redispatch or arrange functional testing and repair for eligible electronics; disposal requires approval.

Service scope, connection method and channel requirements are confirmed before launch. Warehouse services do not replace platform seller approval; delivery times depend on destination and shipping service.

For your enquiry: platform, product types, SKU count, monthly orders and returns, destination countries and required inspection or repair steps.

From the first conversation to the first dispatch

A shared launch plan makes responsibilities and approvals clear. Scope, timing and connectivity are agreed for your project.

  1. 01

    Define the scope

    Provide target markets, SKU count, dimensions, order volumes and return rates to establish storage and service requirements.

  2. 02

    Prepare the handover

    Agree product records, barcodes, inbound lists and order transfer. Document packing, shipping and exception rules.

  3. 03

    Check a test order

    Reconcile received stock. Review an agreed test order from handover through packing and shipping information.

  4. 04

    Review ongoing operations

    Agree contacts, inventory reconciliation, replenishment and return decisions. Discuss peak periods and exceptions in advance.

WORKFLOW EXAMPLE

A decision in the workflow

Example: one order is split into two shipments. Check the items and quantities in each shipment and the remaining open quantity on the order.

Prepare for this step →

Keep orders, shipments and parcels separate

One order can contain several items, partial shipments and parcels. Link every item quantity to the original order reference and each parcel to its tracking number. A created shipping label does not confirm handover. Check open quantities separately from parcels already handed over, so one scan does not accidentally make the whole order appear complete. Agree which events your sales channel needs for its status display.

Review changes before applying them

Provide a unique order reference, SKUs, quantities, delivery address and packing requirements. For a duplicate transmission, use the reference to begin the review and agree handling with the system owner. A change or cancellation after picking starts requires checking work already completed. Record the requested action, affected quantities and approval rather than sending a replacement order that could unintentionally trigger another delivery.

Keep open quantities visible

Before closing an order, reconcile ordered quantities against shipped, cancelled and still-open quantities. Keep the associated items and shipping references for each parcel. Refer missing scans or unresolved remaining quantities to the agreed owner rather than recording them as successful delivery.

Questions about Order Management

Speak with sales
What information makes an order complete?

A unique order reference, SKUs, quantities, recipient details and packing instructions. For partial shipments, keep each quantity linked to the original order.

Can one order have several shipments?

Yes. Items and quantities need a clear link to each partial shipment; cancellations and changes are reviewed against work already completed.
