2. StoreNet Live Home Page
StoreNet Live transmits orders to stores through a web portal. Store
associates can check their dedicated StoreNet website for orders each
morning, or StoreNet Live can send an email notification when orders
are ready to pick and pack. An intuitive user interface guides store
associates through the order fulfillment process and updates the POS
retail system with inventory adjustments for e-commerce sales.
Web Pick List
Store associates print Pick Lists, which display the items
that have been soft allocated to orders for their stores.
Store associates pick the inventory, stage it for packing,
and confirm the inventory quantities picked (or indicate
missing inventory). All inventory that is confirmed as
picked is then hard allocated, picking receipts or packing
slips with shipping labels are automatically printed.
Un-picked Ship-from-Store items/orders are automatically
re-routed to the next best available store. Un-picked Pick-
up-in-Store items/orders are communicated back to the
host system and the customer. A Fulfillment Checklist
helps ensure store associates comply with corporate and
store-specific fulfillment guidelines.
Carrier Integration
Packing slips and shipping labels are designed to the re-
tailer’s specifications for Ship-from-Store orders. The
packing slip also includes an integrated peel off shipping
label (UPS or FedEx). Each store has its own meter num-
ber and book numbers for tracking the freight expenses
by store. All shipments roll-up to a retailer’s corporate
UPS or FedEx account numbers and rates. StoreNet Live
handles all carrier communications electronically eliminat-
ing manual processing by store associates.
Pick ticket confirmations trigger the transmission of the
manifest file to UPS or FedEx. Upon UPS/FedEx pick-up,
a “possession scan” is acquired in StoreNet Live, and a
ship confirmation is sent back to the retailer’s host order
management/e-commerce system, triggering billing to the
customer’s credit card for the items that shipped.
