Create an Order Confirmation

Overview

Order Confirmation is data for finalizing the final order details for the relevant order.
From the Order Management in the Maker App, you can create an order confirmation for orders where an order confirmation has not yet been created.

Purpose

By creating an order confirmation, the content treated as formal order data on DEXTRE becomes clear, making it easier to control the confirmation and management of order details.
By combining notification to the buyer and the approval (agreement) process, you can handle the sharing of order details and consensus building on DEXTRE.

Secondarily, it also leads to the following purposes:

  • Consolidate changes to order details into the order confirmation to reduce mistakes and erroneous operations
  • Standardize operational procedures to prevent dependency on individual skills

Feature Description

Types of "Orders" in DEXTRE

In DEXTRE, two types of order data are managed separately for a single order: Original Order and Order Confirmation.

Original Order is snapshot data that retains the content at the time the order was created.
In the stage before creating an order confirmation, only the original price (wholesale-to-retail ratio or discount rate) can be modified.

Order Confirmation is data for finalizing the final order details for the relevant order.
In the DEXTRE system, in principle, the content recorded in the order confirmation is treated as the official order data.

Orders for which an Order Confirmation can be created

Order Confirmations can be created for orders with an order status of Not Created.

For orders in the Not Created state, indications such as Please create an OC or Required to create OC are displayed on the screen.

When an order confirmation is created, the order transitions to the created state, and the indication switches to OC Created.

What you can do by creating an Order Confirmation

In creating an order confirmation, you can perform the following operations to finalize the order details.

  • Changes to order details such as the wholesale rate or discount rate, ordered quantity, price, and delivery date
  • Addition of order items
  • Addition of shipping fee
  • Input of comments (notes) for PDF download
  • Sending email notifications to buyers
  • Setting up approval (agreement) procedures by the buyer
  • Applying tags to the order

Through these operations, finalize the final order details as an order confirmation.

Handling after creating an Order Confirmation

Creating an order confirmation is not mandatory for operation.
However, some features such as delivery and billing process data on the premise that an order confirmation has been created.

The created order confirmation can be changed as many times as necessary from the Update OC feature.

Important Notes

Transaction Terms themselves cannot be changed

Once decided, transaction terms such as wholesale rate–based pricing and Incoterms (FOB, EXW, etc.) cannot be changed.
If changes to transaction terms are necessary, you must reject (cancel) the order.

Changes to Ratio / Discount rate require bulk application

When changing "Wholesale rate / Discount rate", please click the "Apply this condition to all products" button to reflect it.
Since the wholesale rate/discount rate is set for each product, changes will not be correctly reflected unless the application operation is performed.

Also, due to the "Transaction Term Rate Overrides" feature, different wholesale rates/discount rates may be set only for specific products.
Before changing the wholesale rate/discount rate, please ensure that no unintended changes will occur.

About feature restrictions for Offline Buyers

If the trading partner is an Offline Buyer, the following features cannot be set or used.

  • Turn notification-sending on or off: Email notification to buyers
  • Allow OC Approval by buyer: Approval (agreement) procedure by the buyer

*Since offline buyers are managed only as customer data within the brand, online processing such as system notifications and approvals cannot be performed.

Troubleshooting

Tax is not applied to order items

If tax is not reflected on order items even if "Apply Taxes" is set on the Create Order Confirmation screen, please check that the applicable tax is set on the product master side.

Tax is applied to ordered products when the tax selected in "Apply Taxes" matches the tax setting in the product master.
