Hello!

Welcome to the ShipOut OMS reporting system, before placing an order, we hope you have made the required system initialization settings (see the comprehensive operating process below):

1.Required Settings: Create SKU .(note:associate store alias when you

need to link store to process orders)

2. Linked stores (required for online stores only): Pre-linked stores that require automatic extraction of orders

A general overview of the features

ShipOut enables its customers to use OMS (Order Management System) for Product management, Inbound,Outbound, Inventory management,Work orders and other operations. A one-stop operation that effectively saves sales and warehouse staff communication costs and labor costs.

1. User activation and login

New user activation account: You will receive an email from the warehouse establishing an OMS (Order Management System) account for you, which will include the initial password.

Click log in> fill the Account Number (i.e. Email Address) and the initial password to log in. You can also reset your password by clicking “Forgot Password”.

2. Product management

Feature Overview: ShipOut allows the user to add, delete, deactivate, modify, filter to view products, and automatically submits the product to the warehouse for review after it has been created by the OMS user.

Note:

(1) The SKU cannot be modified once it has been created.

(2) The size and weight of the products must be correctly for it effect related costs.

(3) Products must be associated with a store ‘Alias’when you need to get orders from online stores.

2.1 Create a new product manually

There are two options to create a new product:  

  • Few SKUs – may create new products manually  
  • Many SKUs – recommended to Import products in batches using the Excel file template provided by the OMS

There are two types of products:  

  • Standalone products – containing only one product.  
  • Bundled product – composed of multiple standalone products.  

Please be advised that an SKU must be a unique identifier within the warehouse system and the smallest unit to distinguish different products.

3. Product warehousing declaration

3.1 OMS Declaration

Inbound is the process by which the OMS customer arranges for the products to be sent to the warehouse and submits inbound request to the warehouse. The quantity must be consistent with the actual delivery quantity.

Before creating inbound orders, kindly ensure that the SKU has been created on the “Products” page and approved by the warehouse.

1) There are two Types of Warehouse Orders:  

  • Inbound – warehouse data must be added to the inventory data and must select “Inbound” when creating.
  • Crossdock – shipout immediately after receiving. Products doesn’t need to be added to the inventory, select “Crossdock” when creating .

2) There are two ways to create inbound orders:  

  • Single inbound order – can be manually created for a small order.
  • Multiple inbound orders – needs to be created in batches. It is recommended to import the inbound orders.  

3) After the inbound order has been submitted to the warehouse, the package label should be attached on the outer package or placed in the box according to the needs of the warehouse (see the following operation steps for details) so that different boxes can be located easily when received by the warehouse.

3.1.1 Manually create a inbound order:

Steps: Inbound> Create> Select Warehouse> Fill in necessary information> Save> Submit and the record will show under Draft on the WMS.

Delivery method – Refers to the type of packing. Commonly there are boxes, pallets, and containers of various sizes. It is useful for warehouse to set different fees according to different packing types.

Logistics details – Fill in the shipping address details. Common address information can be set in advance in Settings> Warehouse Settings> Address Book.

Tracking numbers – It is convenient to estimate the time of arrival and confirm the order number. When there are multiple packages you can fill in multiple Tracking Numbers, separated by commas.

Box type – The same type of box is the same if the SKU and the quantity are the same. If there are several types of cartons in the warehousing list, you can add a carton type and fill the quantity of each carton type and quantity of the SKU in it.

There are two methods of creating inbound orders:  

  • “Create” an inbound order
  • Import inbound ordr using the inbound template

3.1.2 Batch Import inbound orders

Steps:  

Inbound> Import Inbound> Select Warehouse > Download Template > Fill in Template > Select the Form that you entered in > Upload: Review Information > Import > Submit the order to the warehouse in draft page.

Fill in the rules:

1) Columns with red headings from the downloaded templates are required and correct formatting must be followed. To avoid issues, please refer to the instructions in the template.

2) Inbound Order Count – Used to identify the number of the inbound order, each inbound order has a serial number, just type in 1, 2, or 3.

3) Arrival Type – Used to indicate the type of transport to the warehouse (box, pallet or container) which is limited to the options in the drop-down menu.

4) Inbound Tracking number – The tracking number sent to the warehouse is based on the package or, if the inbound record of each package needs to be tracked. The tracking number of each box needs to be indicated.

If the items to be obtained are palletized, or each box does not have an individual tracking number, simply put in the master tracking number or the BOL number. However, the carton mark of each shipment must be attached to the outer package or placed inside the box, so that the warehouse can scan and receive the box.

5) Carton Type Count – used to differentiate the types of boxes in the warehousing list. Whenever the same SKU is placed and the quantity of the SKU is the same, it is considered as 1 carton type.  

6) Carton Quantity –the number of boxes belonging to the ‘same’ box type in the inbound order.

7) Inbound Type – indicates if the type of carton is a standard inbound or cross dock type. Cartons with a crossdock inbound type will not be assigned to a location and will not be added to inventory

8) OmsSku – it is the SKU in the box, each box can contain multiple SKUs.

9) Quantity Per Case – the number of products per box.

3.1.3 Printing carton mark

If there are multiple pieces of one ticket, in order to make it easier for the warehouse to scan each box for receipt, and to make it easier to track the receiving record of each box, you need to print the Carton Mark and have it placed on the outer /inside the box after the Inbound Order has been submitted to the warehouse.

Steps: Inbound >Awaiting > Select view drop down> Print Carton Mark
