The first step toward seamless fulfillment on Uphance is ensuring that your inventory and warehouses are properly configured to fulfill your orders. With Uphance, you can proactively configure your default warehouse from where orders should be fulfilled. You can also assign manufacturers to different warehouses where necessary.
Warehouse Configurations
To configure your inventory and warehouses, navigate to Settings >> Inventory>>Locations. Here, you can add a new warehouse or modify the existing ones you have.
You can also set a particular warehouse as your default warehouse as illustrated below. When you do, orders will be fulfilled from that warehouse by default until all the items in it get exhausted.
Setting Priority for Your Warehouses
Let's say you have 4 warehouses: A, B, C, and D. Due to business needs, you want to start picking orders for fulfillment from A and then progress to B, C, and D (in that sequence) once A gets emptied. How would you do that?
The simplest way is to set up a priority rule for your warehouse simply by arranging them in your intended order. The warehouse at the topmost takes priority 1, the last takes the least.
