Prioritize Main Supplier For Orders
StoreAutomator has a functionality that prioritizes the suppliers of items.
To use this functionality,
- The main supplier must be selected at the inventory item level.
- This selected main supplier must be matched to the warehouse. Go to the warehouse > find the warehouse that you want to use the supplier for the warehouse> click edit> select the supplier and save it.
- This warehouse must be selected in the channel setting in the Warehouse tab. Note: Auto fulfilment is not required.
- Go to Channel>Channel Settings>Common
- Click on Warehouse tab
- Add the warehouse.
- Enable the switch of Prioritize Main Supplier
- Click on the Save button
When you use this functionality, the order of the warehouse listed under the warehouse tab in the channel settings is not important. The system will look at the main supplier of the item, and accordingly the item will be fulfilled from that supplier. Even if you have this item in another warehouse, the system will look for the supplier and its warehouse.
