Shipping Management

Manage freight charges, routing, shipping methods, accounts, and destinations as part of the connected Elite Core order lifecycle.

Elite Core Shipping Management helps teams coordinate how products move between suppliers, decorators, company locations, and clients. Shipping information remains connected to the order, making it easier to manage freight charges, destinations, carrier methods, routing, and delivery requirements without separating logistics from the rest of the workflow.

A Better Way to Coordinate Order Logistics

Promotional product and print orders often move through more than one location before reaching the client. Goods may ship from a supplier to a decorator, from a decorator to a warehouse, or directly to the client. Some jobs use third-party shipping accounts, multiple destinations, special carriers, or client-facing freight charges.

When shipping details are managed outside the order, teams can lose track of which destination applies to which product or vendor. Elite Core keeps shipping information in context so purchasing, receiving, production, sales, and finance can understand how the order is expected to move.

How It Works in Elite Core

Shipping requirements can be defined as part of the order and purchasing workflows. Teams can manage supplier and decorator ship-to routing, shipping methods, account information, freight charges, and destination addresses where applicable.

Shipping costs that need to be billed to the client can also be represented within the controlling cart as an appropriate service charge, helping the commercial side of the order stay aligned with the logistics plan.

Key Capabilities

  • Manage shipping destinations and routing
  • Support supplier-to-decorator, supplier-to-client, and other applicable flows
  • Record shipping methods and account information where supported
  • Add freight or shipping charges to the order
  • Coordinate shipping instructions with supplier and decorator POs
  • Keep logistics connected to receiving, production, and invoicing

Connected Workflow

Shipping Management connects Sales Orders, Purchasing, Receiving, Production, and Finance. A typical path can move from Sales Order → Purchase Order → Supplier Shipment → Decorator or Receiving Location → Final Client Delivery.

Keeping those steps connected helps teams understand where goods are expected to go and how freight affects both operations and profitability.

Built for Real Operational Work

For promotional distributors, decorators, print shops, and manufacturers, shipping is not a final administrative task—it is part of how the job is designed from the beginning. Routing decisions affect lead times, costs, receiving, and customer expectations.

Elite Core Shipping Management helps teams plan and communicate those logistics within the same system that manages the order, reducing confusion and creating a clearer path from vendor shipment to final delivery.
