Step 3. Stock Management

Once they find that the lamp you want is in stock, it is the stock database system that sends your order to the merchant system to be processed. On the other hand, should the item be out of stock, it is up to that database to put in an order for a new supply, figure out when the item will be available, and recommend a restocking date.

Step 4. Processing Of Payments

After confirming the stocks availability, your order will be transmitted to the merchant system by the stocks database, and then the credit card will be processed through a firm or bank. The merchant can communicate with your bank’s computer (part of the process) to verify there are enough funds to cover the purchase. Once confirmed, the merchant system authorizes the transaction.

Step 5. Confirmation Of The Order

Once the internal systems of the vendor have confirmed your purchase, you will receive a confirmation notice for the order through the web server of the company. The notice is to let you know that your transaction is complete, as the order has been processed. It is possible that they also send a confirmation through an email or even a text regarding your order; they sometimes will send updates regarding the process of the order or about the shipping.

Step 6. Packaging Of the Order

The retailer’s warehouse receives details of your order from the order management system. With this information, the warehouse knows to have the team pull the item and prepare it for shipment.

Step 7. Order Dispatch

It is the warehouse that is responsible for shipping your order. Sometimes vendors will have a third party (a delivery company) deliver the package to you. It should be clearer to you now how eCommerce is dependent on many different technology solutions to be effective, and it all must work together to be able to manage it all from the time you order to the day it is delivered. Even though technology plays a crucial role in eCommerce, there are a lot of steps that require on-the-spot attention from warehouse and delivery professionals.
Furthermore, although as convenient as it may feel to use an eCommerce website, the truth is that there is a lot of processing going on behind the scenes as it is a necessity to fulfill each one of the transactions. You will never have to handle all the necessary steps by yourself. You can retain support professional or a consultant to help you get your eCommerce business up and going, as well as having them manage all the significant processes.
