When speed is of the essence: from express delivery to desired delivery dates

Sent to you via express

If a supplier offers other shipping methods in addition to standard shipping, these additional delivery options can be selected before submitting the order.

You can choose from various express delivery options, Saturday delivery or collection and dispatch to a consignment warehouse. By the way: a variety of shipping options have already been added for the companies TD SYNNEX, ALSO Germany and Ingram! You will find the 'Shipping method' drop-down menu in the checkout dialogue section on the left under 'Further details'.

Currently, the actual shipping costs may still differ from the costs shown in the overview - but soon it will also be possible to store and then view the actual costs for each shipping method.

The shipping method can be easily selected in the drop-down menu during the ordering process - provided the supplier offers it.

 

Down to the day

If the supplier offers the option, you can use the 'Delivery date' checkbox in the 'Line items' section when ordering to specify that the goods are to be delivered on a certain day. Under 'Fixed delivery date' or 'Desired delivery date', simply enter the date on which the delivery courier should be at your door. Note: for orders placed with ALSO Germany, it is already possible to enter a desired date for each item!

After you have activated the 'Delivery date' checkbox, you can enter a fixed oder desired delivery date.

Are you a supplier and would like to enable your customers in ITscope to choose shipping methods and delivery dates?
