What is the Order Date? • The date a purchase order is created in the system
What is the Ship Date? • Also known as the “Do Not Ship Before Date” (DNSB) • Shipments should NOT arrive before this date
What is MABD? • Must Arrive By Date • Only for replenishable • Calculated date for arrival of a PO at a DC. • Calculated using current vendor lead time by destination DC, which is an average of order to receiving date. • Shipments should be received at DC prior to this date • POs are based on this date
What is the Cancel Date? • Also known as “Do Not Ship After” (DNSA) date • This date CANNOT be after the MABD • If DNSA is after MABD, DNSA is changed to equal MABD
What are Break Packs? • used to assemble a variety of products for the store. Saves vendors money! • Always show the number of units in a pack
What are Break Packs? • Example • Vendor ships 12 blankets together in one box. The warehouse sends 3 blankets to the store in one box. • 12= Vendor Pack • 3 = Warehouse Pack • 4 = Inners
Vendor Pack 12 units (blankets) total
What are Vendor Packs? • The original packaged goods sent from the vendor to the warehouse • The total units in one box sent

What are Warehouse Packs? • The packs sent from the warehouse to the stores • The total units sent in one box (inner for break packs) to the stores.
What are Booking Orders? • First order created to allow vendor to prepare merchandise • This booking order must be split to let vendors know where to send the merchandise and how much to send
Why are orders Split? • Process of distributing items from the vendors to the warehouses • Example: If 100 cases are ordered it has to be determined which DCs should receive them and by how much. DC 6063 DC 6003
Why are orders split? • Imports – vendor ships booking order to Vancouver DC and we distribute • Softlines distributes items from the DCs to the stores after split
What is Collect and Prepaid? • Shipment of products can be made using the Wal-Mart carrier or the vendor’s prefered carrier • Collect – Wal-Mart carrier • Prepaid – Vendor’s carrier • Using Collect allows you to track items completely through the pipeline
What is FOB Point? Indicates who owns the merchandise and at what point in the pipeline they own it. • W = Wal-Mart does NOT own merchandise until it arrives at stores/DCs. If damaged in transit, vendor replaces it. • V = Wal-Mart owns merchandise as soon as it leaves vendor. If damaged in transit, Wal-Mart replaces it.
Creating Push POs • 2 Methods: • Item File Purchase Order Template • CCS & PCPO
Creating Push POs • When do you use which method? • Item File Templates – quick, store-specific purchase orders. • CCS & PCPO – distributed orders that meet the sales patterns of the stores. Non-replen orders only! (03, 07, 43, 53, 57)
Creating POs with Item File • Download template from ISDCanada or Retail Link
Exercise • Run a DSS report on an item to determine past sales history (include traited and valid stores column) • How many units do you want to order based on last year’s sales? • Keep in mind new stores opening up! • Complete a PO template in order to create a PO for that item
Creating POs with CCS Customized Classification System
What is CCS? • Customized Classification System • Hardlines driven • Assists you with creating distributions • Compare item from last year to help with better distribution this year Can be used for PO types 03, 43,53, 07, 57 ONLY
How Do I use CCS? • Create a classlist name • Select time you want to compare (may not want to include markdown periods) • Select the item/fineline/subclass you want to compare to (you can select linked items) • Select rules (i.e. do you want to compare by $ or units) • View Reports • Check Sister Stores/Scaling
Exercise • Create a classlist based on: • last year’s sales for the holiday season. • For a fineline in your area • For new/relo stores for the last 2 months and the next 3 months
What’s PCPO? • Personal Computer Purchase Order Generator • Create & distribute POs for promotional and seasonal events. • Use classlist from CCS to help generate distribution and PO • Domestics & Imports
What Types of Orders can I Create? • Domestic – can have multiple shipments • Import – Single Flow Thru –Cannot have multiple shipments • Import – Multiple Flow Thru – Can have multiple shipments
What is a Sister Store? • Store that has an established sales history • Parent store is new store that requires sister store sales history for 13 months • Used to generate orders and make predictions on new stores • Stores are scaled based on their market and performance • Scaling needs to be reviewed to ensure it’s accurate!
Goals of Import PCPO? • Reduce storage space requirements and costs • Minimize overstocking & under stocking the stores • Distribute entire seasonal quantity
Let’s Try PCPO • Start • Programs • Wal-Mart Applications • PCPO
PCPO Summary • Better distribution than using Retail Link • You can always cancel PO in PCAN • You MUST ALWAYS look at distribution before you can upload it
Challenge of the Day! • Use a classlist existing in the system to complete a What If Analysis for your PO and item number. DO NOT upload to the mainframe!!!!!
What’s the Next Step? • POs need to be parted to let the vendors know how much merchandise should be shipped to each DC • Apparel also takes another step to distribute merchandise to each of the stores from the warehouse
