Setup Dropship Order Process

 The Dropship Order Process in Oracle Cloud ERP is like a fast-track ride in an amusement park – it’s quick, efficient and gets you where you need to go without any fuss. Meanwhile, Global Order Promising can feel like waiting in a never-ending queue for a ride that may or may not be worth the wait.

Dropship Order Process is a process of product fulfillment that occurs when items are shipped directly from the manufacturer or wholesaler to the customer. A third-party retailer facilitates drop shipping through their website and digital marketing efforts and is able to profit off the margin created by circumventing the traditional retail supply chain.
