Why Retail Orders Are Different

Retail Purchase Orders Come With Rules DTC Orders Don't

  1. 1

    Orders Arrive as EDI Documents

    Retailers send purchase orders electronically, not through a storefront. We receive them through SPS Commerce so they flow into fulfillment.

  2. 2

    Retailers Have Packing Requirements

    Most retailers publish requirements for carton labels, packing and delivery. We pack and route orders to the requirements you share with us.

  3. 3

    Short Shipments Cost You

    Retailers check what arrives against the PO. Every pick is barcode-scanned to hold 99.8% accuracy.

  4. 4

    Retail Stock Competes With DTC

    A large PO can empty your online store. One inventory in ShipHero WMS shows what's committed before you confirm.
