Honey ShelfUsing the pipeline
Stage 6 — Release to Store
Shipping approved stock: size breakdowns, finished-goods inventory, and the Shopify push.
Creating a shipment
Ship from an approved QC lot. The quantity limit is the lot's REMAINING shippable units — passed minus already shipped — so a lot can ship in several batches. Enter the per-size breakdown from the physical packing list; the store push uses those exact per-size quantities, and a shipment without its size breakdown cannot push ("Enter the size breakdown before creating a shipment").
What happens on release
- Finished-goods inventory increases immediately — this is the ONLY place FG stock goes up.
- The Shopify push runs in the background with automatic retries, to your primary store location.
- Each shipment row shows its sync status: push pending, pushed to store, or push failed.
Failed pushes
A failed push keeps the failure reason on the shipment — expand the row to read it and hit Retry. Your Honey Shelf inventory is already correct; only the store update retries. The home dashboard counts failed pushes so they are never silent.
Delivery challan (PDF)
Every shipment row has a "Challan PDF" button — a numbered, signature-ready dispatch document with your logo, consignor block (name, address, GSTIN, contact), a consignee block you fill in a small dialog (prefilled with your last-used values), the per-size item table, and Prepared by / Received by signature boxes. Challan numbers run CH-YYYY-NNNN, sequential per year, and are permanent — re-downloading a challan always reuses the same number. The challan lists quantities only, no values: it is a delivery record, not a tax invoice, and says so in its footer.
For OMS users
If your OMS pulls inventory rather than accepting pushes, download the per-shipment CSV (SKU, size, quantity) from the shipment row and import it there. Planning in batches? The batch page (Batches → your batch) exports ONE CSV covering all of the batch's shipments, summed by SKU and size — one upload per planning run instead of one per shipment. The shipment list here also filters by batch.
Dispatch manifest (CSV)
The OMS CSV keeps its exact three columns forever so your OMS import never breaks. For a richer file, use the "Dispatch manifest (CSV)" button beside it: the per-shipment manifest adds product name, shipment reference, batch, dispatch date, and challan number; the per-batch manifest (on the batch page) sums by SKU and size and carries product name, batch, and export date.
