everything you need to know about order management [Music] [Applause] [Music] explained what earth order management it's the process of receiving tracking and fulfilling customer orders the order management process begins when an order is placed and ends when the customer receives their package it's probably that you will use an order management system that is a one stop shop to view and manage all customer orders in one place you can track the entire journey of a customer order from the buy button to delivery and even returns in short an order management system organizes and automates everything that needs to happen to get customers what they ordered on time and in good condition now that you know what order management is let's dive into the six steps of the order management cycle the process requires several moving parts often controlled by separate entities to come together to provide a cohesive customer experience step one your order is placed orders are placed by customers from different places at different times across every available channel to streamline this process on the backend you need a multi-channel order management or omni-channel fulfillment tool that can automatically push the relevant information from your ecommerce store to your order management system step two the order is received once the order is placed the information is passed to the fulfillment center where the processing of the order begins three the order is picked picking generally refers to following a picking list by retrieving products from the available inventory and delivering it to a packing station 3pls often have warehouse picking teams or pickers dedicated to this task 4 the order is packaged once the order is delivered to the packaging area it's packaged in a way that minimizes the dimensional weight while still providing sufficient protection five the order ships once the item is packaged it's shipped to the customer carriers usually pick the orders up straight from the 3pl's warehouse each order is assigned a tracking number which is then shared with the customer allowing them to see the status of their order every step of the way six the item is delivered finally items are delivered to the end customer but it's important to ask these questions were they the right items and were they delivered on time if order management
