Processing cash receipts from Amazon

Is anybody doing business with Amazon and how do you process the volume of cash receipts?

We do a large amount of business with amazon, selling directly for shipment to their DC’s and also fulfilling their online orders. There is some copy paste into the allocation tab from the file we download from the bank. Also because of the large volume of invoices, it can take 4 minutes to retrieve all the invoices.

We’re looking at using Bank Receipt File Import to process all of our receipts using combined receipt file from our bank and an electronic interface from CSG. We would use Lockbox Processing but most of our receipts are electronic.

Hello
How do you link amazon orders with Epicor?

We use Demand Management EDI to import Amazon orders.

@crolfsen - Is Amazon set up as the only customer, with thousands of shipto’s? Or do you do it another way? Thanks!

We process orders shipping directly to their DC’s and also fulfill web orders shipping to their end customer. Each is a separate account in E10.

For the account shipping to DC’s we set up ShipTo ID’s.

For the web order fulfillment account we us the One Time Ship To (OTS) functionality. No shipment ID is required to be setup.

Thanks for the info, Chip!

Hi, are you sending any other documents? Stock,price, order Ack?

We send outbound EDI documents they require.

Hi Chip,
How do you handle the 753 and 754 within Epicor? We are already doing EDI with other TP’s but, Amazon requires the routing requests when shipping to a warehouse. Do you work with these requests? We are trying to get away from Vendor Central for our shipping department.

Hi Naomi,

We don’t trade the 753/754, we use Vendor Central like you are now. Our EDI team feels there’s no advantage to using EDI for that, that it would be a lateral move in terms of work.

Thank you so much for your input, it is appreciated!
