The Challenges of USA Collect Shipments

Managing Collect (WePay) shipments for Amazon Vendor in the USA and Canada comes with unique challenges:

• Slow PO Management: Managing order on Monday, Wednesday can be slow and tedious.
• Routing Control: Creating Routing Requests and managing carrier assignments can be a full time job.
• Slow ASN Creation: Manually entering carton contents details for each shipment takes valuable time.
• Slow UPS Process: When UPS is assigned as the carrier, you have to retrieve each set of labels from Vendor Central, which slows operations.
• Complex Batch Control: Tracking and assigning batch and expiry information manually can be error-prone and time-consuming.
• Inefficient Inventory Management: Lack of real-time stock visibility complicates reordering and allocation.

These hurdles not only waste time but can also result in costly compliance issues and shortage claims if managed incorrectly.
