Prepare for the buyer.
Before the shipment is built.
Retailer orders and marketplace replenishment need their own instructions. FlexHub scopes the labels, documents, case packs and handling around the current requirements for your products.
Discuss retail preparationMake the requirements usable.
Share the current purchase order and routing guide. Assign who approves each document and exception before work begins.
| Checkpoint | What to agree | Working record |
|---|---|---|
| Order & routing | Destination, release, appointments, ship method and responsibility for retailer portals. | Purchase order and current vendor guide |
| Product & pack | Unit identifiers, case quantities, kit components, packaging, inserts and any marketplace prep. | SKU/case file and approved pack instructions |
| Labels & documents | Unit and carton labels, packing slips and pallet requirements. EDI, ASNs and UCC-128/GS1-128 labels only within the confirmed integration scope. | Approved label/document mapping |
| Handoff & exceptions | Carrier account, supplied labels, dispatch records and the owner of any routing change. | Shipment reference and required approvals |
One instruction set.
Fewer assumptions.
Illustrative instruction card for a retailer case. Quantities and checks are examples, not a live order or promised standard.
Document unit-to-case conversions separately from the sales SKU. If the buyer changes the guide or order, agree the revision before packing. Requested photos or quality checks are part of the scoped work.
Build the finish into the plan.
Supplies, instructions, labor and charges are defined before introducing a new workflow.
Kits & bundles
Agree components, quantities, finished SKU, assembly instructions and stock treatment. Review scheduling and materials for a launch, recurring pack-out or seasonal batch.
Presentation & labeling
Scope inserts, pouches, gift wrap, liners, relabeling and custom packaging. Use client-approved artwork and labels.
Systems & retailer data
Existing partner-supported or scoped custom workflows depend on permissions and retailer requirements. The new WMS does not make every connection native today.
Check connection methodsBring the guide. Define the pack-out.
Share the retailer requirements, product data, case configurations and deadline.
