Wholesale Sample / Stock Pull Request Process
How to request and process a stock pull for samples, vendor fulfillment, or distro - and what happens after the form is submitted.
Option 1: Samples Pulled From 225, 333, Huntington & Greenpoint
The Sales Team fills out the Wholesale Sample/Stock Pull Request Form to request pulling stock from O+O/E-Commerce. Submitting the form automatically alerts Lisa, Mike, Josh, Jared, E-Commerce, and Will.
Form fields: Purchase Order # (enter SAMPLE, vendor name, or event name plus the date as YYYYMMDD), Beer Name, Package (case, 4-pack, BBL, etc.), Qty, Pulled From Location, and Requested By.
Once the form is submitted:
- The Sales Team (Mike/Justin/Mark/Lila) physically pulls the inventory for samples.
- Lisa reduces the inventory in Shopify for the SKUs on the form so they're taken out of available-for-sale inventory.
- Lisa logs the transfer from the pull location to WHOLESALE in the Transfer Log sheet (4-packs converted to cases).
Option 2: Immediate Vendor Fulfillment / Stock Pulled From 225 or 333 for Distro
The Sales Team or BrewOps fills out the same request form to pull cases from 225 or 333. Submitting the form alerts Lisa, Mike, Jared, E-Commerce, and Will.
Once the form is submitted:
- For immediate vendor fulfillment, inventory is physically pulled by the Sales team, who invoice vendors as needed.
- E-Comm reduces the inventory in Shopify for the SKUs on the form.
- E-Comm logs the transfer to WHOLESALE in the Transfer Log sheet.
- For distro requests filled from 225: E-Comm places a hold on the SKUs by handwriting "Distro HOLD PO #[XXXXXXX]" on the inventory clipboards with the on-hand and available-for-sale counts. Lisa or E-Comm tells Alex where to pull from, Alex logs "Distro PULL PO #[XXXXXXX]" when physically pulling, then moves the product to 209 and preps it for distro.
