This page allows you to make a freight order request, excluding special order items. When you load the page, if you have an order request started that you have not finalized, it will load. There is a dropdown of all products in your store, you can select the desired product and enter the quantity you want to order (in cases) in the text box. Then click on Add Cases to add the item to your order. While there are no items on your request, a link to View Unable to Order Report report will also be displayed (see details here). Each record will display NABCA code, product description, number of cases requested, number of bottles requested, store pack, warehouse pack, a notation if the amount requested is not in full cases (single pack items), product size (in ml), the number of bottles currently on hand, the number of bottles in on freight orders that you have not yet received, the maximum for your store (based on your store minimum), and the four week sales number. Note that the inventory level after your order is denoted by the color of the text on the line: red text indicates more than eight weeks inventory, yellow text indicates four to eight weeks inventory, and green text indicates less than four weeks inventory.
If you have not started a new order, you can click on the Load From Minimums button to load an order based on the minimums you have set for your store.
You can edit each item in your order by changing the quantity in the text box next to it. After you have made your edits, click on the Update All button at the top of the screen to save them. To remove an item from your order you will need to set the cases text box value to 0 for that item and then click on the Update All button at the top of the screen. If you want to delete the entire order, click on the Delete Order button at the bottom of the form. You will receive a pop-up message reading "Are you sure you want to delete your entire order?". If you select OK your order will be deleted. If you select Cancel, your order will be available for further editing.
After you have added all of the desired cases to your order, you can finalize the order by clicking on one of the finalize buttons. If you have not sent in a main order for the week, you will be able to click on the Finalize Order - Main Order button. Note that there are weight restrictions for your main order for the week. If you have already finalized your main order for the week, this button will be grayed out.
At any time, you can create a supplemental order by clicking on the Finalize Order - Supplemental Order button. There are no weight restrictions on your supplemental orders.
Cases ordered must be a positive integer value. If you enter an invalid number of cases, you will see this
message:
Some items cannot be added to your order. If it is not possible to add an item to your order, you will
receive a message like this:
If you attempt to submit a main order that does not meet the weight requirements, you will receive a message
noting the current amount of weight on your order and the total required weight. It will look something like
this:
The system also checks to see if the number of cases you are ordering is a reasonable amount based on your four week sales numbers. If the number of cases you have added seems high based on this calculation, you will receive a message like this: This warning is only a reminder; you will still be able to finalize your order with the item as requested (unless the item is in low stock level at the warehouse).
