Include or "Drop-Ship" or "Walk-In" as shipping methods

0

As of now, the only way to clear a drop shipped order or, an order picked up by a local customer, from the "waiting to ship" list is to "Mark As Shipped."  By doing this, the order total is not included on the Complete Report mechanism.  If it was possible to add drop ship and walk-in orders as SHIPPING METHODS, the totals would be included in the reported numbers.  To be more exact, a field that could be populated with the cost my business was charged for the drop ship or any other payments or fees associated with walk-in orders would be a big help, when exporting the Complete Report.  Thanks for any consideration.

Hi Christopher,

I want to make sure I understand the work flow you are requesting. Today when you mark an order as shipped, we only allow you to enter the carrier and the tracking number. You need to also enter a cost and then have that cost reported on our report. Have I got that right?

Thanks,

Gregg Sporar

Ultimately, I would like to be able to include both drop ship and local, walk-in orders into the complete report. That would give me a more accurate view of our total sales and shipping margins. Thanks

Put me down for wanting this feature.   

ShippingEasy is great for shipments that we ship - but some of the things we sell are not shipped by us.  They are drop shipped direct from some supplier to the customer.   Would be nice to have these shipments tracked as well.

Personally - I don't have "walk-ins" but I can see where this would be useful for those who have both online and brick and mortar stores.
