Description

Drop Shipments & Special Orders

Ship items directly from your vendor to your customer.

Matrix Items

Track inventory and pricing separately based on item options, like tracking shirts by color and size.

Multiple Vendors

Manage procurement from multiple vendors and track vendor details like vendor name, item code, and purchase price.

Gift Certificates

Sell gift certificates to customers in set or variable amounts. When they buy a gift certificate, they'll enter recipient information, and the message, amount, and code are emailed to the recipient.

Gift certificates apply to the total order amount and you can reuse them if there's a remaining balance.

You can also use this feature to share files with customers for free. For example, you can attach terms of service to their record for access from the Customer Center.

Bar Coding and Item Labels

Create bar codes to track transactions and items, then print labels with the item's bar code.

Check this box to manage item attributes by location and view only the data you need for each one.
