1- Steps for creating a regular warehouse

Creating a Warehouse:

To create a warehouse, go to 'Fulfilled by Partner' and select 'Warehouse', then click 'Add New Warehouse'.

1. Fill in essential details like Warehouse Name, Country, and Warehouse Type (Warehouse or Facility - Office Location), then click 'Create Warehouse'.

2. A green success message indicates successful creation. 

3. Activation is only possible once all mandatory fields in the 'Address and Contact Information' section are completed accurately. This includes selecting the correct pin location on the map, providing precise address details, and entering verified contact details. These steps are critical and must not be skipped to proceed.

In some cases, approval may be required before the Warehouse can become fully active. For more details and a better understanding, please refer to the Warehouse statuses table in this article.

Note: 

- Pin location cannot be changed once set.

- If you have changed your warehouse address, you cannot edit the location of an existing warehouse in Seller Lab. You must create a new warehouse with the updated address.

-Your phone number and email ID has to be verified with an OTP when you enter the details for the first time.

Setting Order Fulfillment and Handover Types:

To update your handover type follow the below steps:

  1. Log in to Seller Lab.

  2. Navigate to Fulfilled by Partner in the menu.

  3. Under Fulfilled by Partner, click on Warehouse.

  4. A list of your warehouses will be displayed, including the warehouse name, code, contact details, and a mini-map.

  5. Select the warehouse where updates are needed.

  6. In the Order Fulfillment & Handover Type section, click Edit (located on the left-hand side).

  7. Update your handover type as appropriate:

    • Choose Pick-up, or

    • Select Dropoff (if Dropoff is chosen, a new field will appear to select your Dropoff location).

Note: If the location isn’t serviceable, Drop-off will be the default option.

Configuring Holidays and Work Hours:

  • In the final setup stage, provide details for Holidays and Work Hours. Select a processing time for handing over shipments to noon and save your settings.

  • Once all details are valid and the location is serviceable by noon, the warehouse status will change to 'Active'.

Once the warehouse is active you can now use the warehouse to update your stock details.

2-How can i set up my holidays and working hours?

The warehouse settings also allow you to add your preferred holidays and manage your working hours easily. This option allows you to plan your operations accordingly, which will help us coordinate with you much better.

If you add a holiday to your schedule, your offers will not go offline, but the estimated shipping date will increase according to the number of holidays you have added.

For example, if your processing time is 1 day and you add 2 days as holidays, the new estimated shipping date for that duration will be 3 days.
