Delivery Appointments
Appointments are required for ALL inbound POs (parcel or freight). To schedule a delivery appointment, please schedule an appointment through our scheduler, OpenDock here. And here's guidance on how to set up your account and book an appointment!
Creating POs
POs can be created in one of two ways within Manifest’s WMS:
- Directly through the user interface (UI) here
- Via a bulk Excel upload
Inbound Receiving Compliance
Compliant Parcel and palletized LTL and FTL POs will be received at $45 per PO.
Compliant Floor-Loaded Containers will be received at the hourly rate per your rate card.
Non-compliant POs are:
- Subject to additional SLA/turnaround time
- Subject to fees as immediately below:
| Non-Compliance Type | Non-Compliance Fee |
| Dock Appointment | $100 |
| Digital PO | Hourly* |
| Pack-Out | Hourly** |
| Labeling | Hourly** |
*Inbound arrivals without a digital PO created in the system prior to arrival will automatically move to Manifest’s Unidentified Receiving Order (URO) process and will be subject to non-compliance charges.
**Pack-Out and/or Labeling non-compliance types are subject to hourly labor charges if inventory can be readily and accurately identified by Manifest’s team. Otherwise, these inbound arrivals will move to Manifest’s Unidentified Receiving Order (URO) process and will also be subject to non-compliance charges
Parcel Shipments
To be considered compliant POs and held to normal SLAs as here, all of the following conditions must be met:
| Type | Description | Details |
| Dock Appointment | Appointment Scheduled | Delivery must be scheduled via OpenDock here |
| Dock Appointment | Delivery on Scheduled Day | Delivery must take place on the date the appointment is scheduled within Manifest’s receiving hours |
| Digital PO | Prior to Delivery | The digital PO must be published in Manifest’s WMS prior to delivery |
| Digital PO | Tracking Entered | Tracking number must be entered in the Tracking numbers section, including the Carrier(s) and the Tracking Number(s) |
| Digital PO | One PO Per Master Tracking | A unique PO should be created for each master tracking number from the carrier to ensure arrival times are near one another |
| Digital PO | Expected Date Entered | The estimated date of delivery in the Expected date field at the PO level |
| Digital PO | Lot and Expiration Dates | ONLY IF APPLICABLE: if you require lot and/or expiration date tracking, these must be emailed to your account manager using this template (File > Make a Copy) prior to delivery |
| Pack-Out | Clear Separation of SKUs |
Either:
|
| Unique Barcodes | Unit-Level |
All individual units must have a scannable and unique barcode present at time of receipt.
Products that arrive without barcodes will be relabeled automatically at the hourly rate listed on your rate card. |
| Labeling | Partial Case Designation | Any partial cases should be clearly labeled as such (commonly with colored stickers noting “Partial”) |
| Labeling | Warehouse Receipt - Expected Paperwork | Each carton must have the Manifest box label visibly placed on the outside of the box (this paperwork is generated during the Shipping Plan creation process after clicking Generate packing list and finish) |
Freight Shipments (LTL, FTL, or Floor-Loaded Containers)
*NOTE: if you are sending a freight PO with exclusively single SKU pallets, you can substitute the word “pallet” for “box” during the PO creation process.
For example, if you are sending a PO for 10 pallets of SKU A where each of the 10 pallets has 100 master cartons, rather than creating the PO to reflect 1,000 boxes, you can create 10 “boxes” to represent the pallets being sent.
This does NOT apply to a PO with any mixed SKUs within pallets and/or cartons.
To be considered compliant POs and held to normal SLAs as here, all of the following conditions must be met:
| Type | Description | Details |
| Dock Appointment | Appointment Scheduled | Delivery must be scheduled via OpenDock here |
| Dock Appointment | Delivery on Scheduled Day | Delivery must take place on the date the appointment is scheduled within Manifest’s receiving hours |
| Pallet Size Requirements | Pallet Size | Pallets must not exceed 48" x 40" x 63"; those that do will result in a destack/restack action charged at the rate on your rate card |

| Digital PO | Tracking Entered | PRO # (freight tracking number) or BOL # must be entered in the Tracking numbers section, including the Carrier(s) and the Tracking Number(s) |

| Digital PO | Lot and Expiration Dates | ONLY IF APPLICABLE: if you require lot and/or expiration date tracking, these must be emailed to your account manager using this template (File > Make a Copy) prior to delivery |
| Physical Pack-Out | Single SKU Per Carton | Each carton contains only one SKU |
| Unique Barcodes | Unit-Level |
All individual units must have a scannable and unique barcode present at time of receipt.

| Labeling | Warehouse Receipt - Expected Paperwork |

Important Information
-
Manifest verifies stated quantity details at the carton (parcel) or pallet (freight) level against provided PO. Further investigation or handling of inbound POs, including First Article Inspection (FAI), counting or quality-auditing unit-by-unit, will result in additional charges and additional turnaround time.
- If Manifest discovers that counts are incorrect and we proceed to count or quality-audit on a per-unit basis, we will charge you at the hourly rate noted on your rate card.
- If you suspect there could be issues and need to request further handling, please contact your account manager.
- If you require lot and/or expiration date tracking, each PO’s lots/expiration dates must be emailed to your account manager using this template (File > Make a Copy) prior to delivery
