In a dropshipping model, your supplier or contract manufacturer handles fulfillment — but you own the customer experience. This creates challenges around visibility, coordination, and billing accuracy.
Axolt gives you complete control of the process without needing to hold inventory.
🧾 1. Order to Cash — Sell to Customers, Track Everything
When your customer places an order:
- ✅ Sales Order Created in Axolt (manually, via API, or eCommerce sync)
- 📦 Drop-ship Flag automatically routes fulfillment to the supplier
- 🔄 Order Status Updates are tracked as the supplier confirms shipment
- 🚚 Shipment Notifications keep customers informed with tracking and ETA
- 💸 Invoice is Triggered Automatically once shipment is confirmed
- 💰 Cash Collection is recorded against the customer invoice
🔍 Result: You maintain full visibility over delivery without ever touching the product.
📦 2. Procure to Bill — Manage Suppliers Without Manual Chasing
On the supplier side:
- 🛒 Purchase Order auto-generated and sent to supplier/contract manufacturer
- 📬 Supplier Confirms PO & Delivery via the Axolt Supplier Portal or email integration
- 📈 Goods Receipt logged based on shipment proof or tracking data
- 🧾 Supplier Invoice matched with PO & delivery for accurate billing
