Promote Conversion to Full Packages
This feature can help (especially) wholesalers in stimulating customers to order full packages instead of pieces and will save logistical handling time and costs. If you work with fully automated warehouses that process boxes without human intervention this feature is of great value.
Processing large packages or pallets is more efficient than processing individually packed products. Think, for example, of the efficiency gains for a fully automated warehouse that processes boxes without human intervention or the prevention of damage during transport.
CloudSuite offers an automated workflow that updates the order for an item to a larger package to save costs or presents a clear notification when a larger quantity will result in a lower unit price.
- When a full box or larger package results in a lower unit price, so it is comparatively cheaper to order a full crate, e.g. a price advantage per piece. In this case, a message is displayed, indicating how much percent will be saved by choosing a full box. The customer can choose to accept the suggestions
- When the price of a full box is lower than that of the number of products ordered the conversion can be done automatically. A nice advantage; additional products for a lower price. If the customer still wants to order fewer items, the choice can still be made to undo the change.
The whole workflow is based on business rules such as a price difference between a number of pieces compared to the price of a box.
