Note: On 1 September 2024, JTL introduced new editions that bundle most of the previous individual services into different packages. In order for you to continue working as smoothly as possible, existing customers were automatically switched to the package configuration that best matched their existing contract. The individual packages differ in terms of limitations and/or range of functions. Therefore, some of the features described in the JTL-Guide may not be available to you as part of your booked JTL edition. You can change your package configuration in your JTL customer account. Find out more about the new editions and packages here. Check our FAQ for frequently asked questions about the product editions.
Having the supplier send goods directly to the provider
Your task/initial situation
You are an online merchant and would like to have some of the goods you order from your supplier sent directly to your fulfilment service provider. This is one of JTL-Wawi’s standard purchasing processes with a destination warehouse that belongs to your fulfilment service provider.
Ordering goods from supplier
- In JTL-Wawi, go to the area Einkauf (Purchasing) Click on the folder Lieferanten (Suppliers) and select the supplier from whom you want to order. Then click Bestellen (Order).
- Under Lieferung an (Deliver to), select the warehouse of your fulfilment service provider as the destination warehouse. Then create your purchase order as usual.
- Send the purchase order to your supplier by email or mail it to them. The purchase order will now have the status In Bearbeitung (Being processed).
- Carry out a fulfilment synchronisation in the area Lager (Warehouse). The purchase order will now be announced to your fulfilment service provider. Items that do not yet exist will be created.
- As soon as the goods arrive at the fulfilment service provider, they carry out a goods receipt. If you then perform another fulfilment synchronisation, you will see that the goods have been posted to your service provider’s warehouse.
You can see the differences between the announced quantity and the delivered quantity in the columns Menge (Quantity) and Bereits geliefert (Already delivered) of the purchase order.
- Completely and partially delivered items are posted directly as stocks in JTL-Wawi and are available to be shipped.
