Option 1. Flat File Management

Typical DSI Distributing Drop Shipper Shopping Cart Workflow

1. Your DSI drop shipper representative has given you .csv or flat files which contains their entire inventory for you to sell in your shopping cart solution.
2. You may want to sell all items or a select number of items from your DSI drop shipper account.
3. Our team, during your set-up, will create filters so only the items you want to sell are imported into your Upshot Commerce ecommerce system, along with the associated default category mapping.
4. Depending upon the material your DSI drop shipper account provides to you (images, item descriptions, etc), everything will automatically be available in your e-commerce browser-based back-office to edit and manage.
5. After configuring and customizing your storefront, your customers simply shop, place orders and make payments to your Upshot Commerce powered ecommerce website, which is deposited directly to your merchant account.
6. You batch download the orders from your Upshot Commerce shopping cart software and send them to your DSI drop shipper account representative for fulfillment.
7. We also provide your DSI drop shipper representative with their own control panel to login and update order status as well as provide tracking numbers, if they provide you with this service.

• Automatically send new orders directly to the drop shipper / fulfillment center for fulfillment;
• Automatically receive order status and tracking information;
• Automatically reflect inventory status;
• Automatically support any function or feature from the drop shipper or fulfillment center;
• Plus full integrated support of all Upshot Commerce platform and extension features, and much more.
