Delivery with One step flow: Shipping¶
If your products are not perishable and your inventory is not too large, delivering goods directly is the simplest shipping method. In the Viindoo Inventory management system, the one-step delivery process (Deliver goods directly) is set as default if you do not set up any other advanced shipment process.
In case you have already set up another advanced shipment process, you can set it back to the one-step delivery process.
To activate the one-step delivery process, navigate to Inventory ‣ Configuration ‣ Warehouses, select the warehouse you need to set up, check the box Deliver goods directly (1 step) at Warehouse Configuration ‣ Outgoing Shipments.
Note
To choose a one-step delivery process, you need to activate Multi-Step Routes.
