Moving to a Fulfillment Partner: Your First Inventory Checklist
Moving inventory to a fulfillment partner is easier when the first delivery arrives with clear information. A little preparation can make receiving more straightforward and reduce questions during launch.
Start by treating the move as a coordinated handoff. Save Rack needs to understand what is arriving, how the products are identified and how your store will send orders once stock is ready.
Clean up your catalog
Review product names, SKUs and variants before sending stock. Remove accidental duplicates and make sure the identification on your products matches the records in your store.
Include dimensions, weights and handling notes where relevant. If two products look almost identical, explain the distinguishing details so they can be stored and picked with confidence.
Share the inbound plan
Provide expected quantities, shipment details and an inventory list. Explain whether units arrive in individual cartons, mixed cases or pallets, and flag stock that belongs to a bundle or set.
Arrange the receiving schedule with your partner and keep contact information available for questions. Save Rack's warehousing and storage services provide the physical foundation for the next stage.
Confirm when orders can begin
Do not assume inventory is immediately available to ship when a delivery arrives. Confirm the receiving and setup steps, then agree on how readiness will be communicated.
Use a launch checklist that includes store connection, product matching and packing instructions. Explore the Save Rack onboarding process and bring your questions into the conversation before the first customer order.
