    Dropship orders - orders to dropship vendors

    Hello,

    What is the method to do drop ship orders? We might get an order with 5 line items, and 2 of them are fulfilled by two different vendors.

    On the packing list for the items WE ship - I want to indicate that lines 1, 3 and 5 are in this shipment.
    For lines 2 and 4 I want to say that they will be arriving separately.

    I also want to take order line 2 and pass it along to our drop ship vendor 1 - along with Our name and the Customer name and Shipping address.

    I want to the same for order line 4 to drop ship vendor 2.

    Is there a module to help with this?

    Thanks
    Sam

    For the email notification to your vendors I would take a look at this module:

    http://www.mvtrocks.com/p-EMEDIA-EDROPSHIPM.html

    It allows you to setup Suppliers and assign products to a supplier. When an order comes in, it will send an email notification to each supplier with only the products they need to fulfill.

    This can also be done with Miva's custom fields and a custom email template if you did not want to use a module, however it involves a bit more custom logic in the templates.

    As for your custom picking list, you can customize this to show which products you are shipping and which are arriving separately. You would need to setup a custom product field to identify each product as a drop ship product or a product you fulfill. You can then read then value in the pick-list and display the appropriate message on a per product basis.

        Emporium Plus' Mail Manager can do it, too.

        We use it for vendor notification. We also use it to send an email inviting the customer to review their products bought and to remind them when it's time to reorder.
