Can I still order literature through marketingliterature@signetarmorlite.com or by calling Signet Armorlite directly?

The added benefits of receiving shipping confirmation, tracking information and visibility of order history makes this a more efficient and convenient process for you.

How do I place orders on the site for a scheduled event?
In order to guarantee that your order is received within a certain window for an event, please plan on placing your order 7-10 days beforehand. If expedited service is required (ex. 2 or 3 day service), add a note in the special instructions box. Requests for expedited service require an additional 24 hour delay as approval must be received from Signet Armorlite staff before the order is processed. You may request 1-2 day expedited service bypassing approvals by providing a UPS shipping account to cover the additional costs.

Why were my order quantities received less than what I ordered?
The owner of an item may have declined your request to exceed the orderable limit. The max order limit will be sent.

What factors could delay a standard order from being fulfilled within 2 business days?
1) Delayed owner approval(s)

2) High order levels within the warehouse (250+ orders a day)

3) Inclement weather conditions

4) Non-site orders (phone, fax or email)

Why does the site have differing order limits?
Order limits are placed on items to minimize costs and maximize efficiencies within the literature fulfillment operation and Marketing. Order limits are set based on order frequency, quantity per bundle/package/box, average order quantity, how the item is used and the cost of the item. The Signet Armorlite staff is responsible for setting those order.

How can exceptions be made for orders exceeding the order quantity limit (example: you want to order 50 decals and the system will only let you order 25)?
You can now order over the max limit by clicking on the greater than sign (>) next to the last order quantity. A box will appear to add the quantity you want to order. Doing this will send an email to the owner of the item for approval. Approvers (Marketing Team Leads) must reply within 24 hours.

Can I see my order history in the site?
Yes, you can see your order history in the site by clicking on “My Orders” under the search field at the top right hand side of the home page.

Shipping

How quickly will standard orders be shipped for delivery?

Will I receive a shipping confirmation?
Yes. You will receive an email notification confirming your order within 24 hours. You will also receive a shipping confirmation email once the order has shipped.

What is standard shipping?

If expedited service is required (ex. 2 or 3 day service), add a note in the special instructions box. Requests for expedited service require an additional 24 hour delay as approval must be received from Signet Armorlite staff before the order is processed. You may request 1-2 day expedited service bypassing approvals by providing a UPS shipping account to cover the additional costs.

Reporting

How do I access the reports?
Reports are available to Marketing 24/7 on the new system. Click on “Reports” in the far left hand corner of the Navigation bar. This will take you to all of the available reports. If you are in Marketing and don’t see “Reports” on the navigation bar, contact Therese Torres (ttorres@signetarmorlite.com).

What information can I find on the reports?
You have several different reports to choose from including:

Add to Stock Report – shows current, expected and past inventory receipts.

Back Order Report – lists all outstanding orders by item. Includes any pending receipts and due dates. Used for replenishment planning and controlling inventory releases by providing a listing of current items which cannot be fulfilled due to insufficient inventory or other reason (frozen stock, obsolescing, etc.).

Inventory Status and Usage Report (ISUR) - a listing of all the customer's items. The report is a quick view of status fields such as current on-hand quantities. The information is current as of the last warehouse update. The report is useful when doing analysis on items, monitoring activity by item, preparing for reordering, or determining obsolescence.

Distribution Report – list of all the details around specific chosen parameters by the user from who places the item, what is the item, the description, quantity as well as when and where it shipped.

Low Notice Report - alert that an item has gone below a certain (pre-determined) inventory level. The first alert appears at the First Low inventory level and the second alert at the Second Low level. The items remain on this report until the inventory on-hand is above the first low (reorder point). The report is used to aid in the replenishing process.

Tracking Number Report - report shows UPS tracking number information for auditing purposes.

Trend Usage Report - report shows a rolling 12-month usage by item, based on shipment dates. The average usage field does not include the current month. Months are marked with calendar month and year. The report is used as an at-a-glance activity report to see trends in shipment of certain items and is useful for forecasting. It can also be used to spot check high volume items.

Can I download the reports into Excel?
Yes. All of the reports are easily downloadable. Simply click on “Reports” in the navigation bar and choose which report provides the information you are seeking. You can open each in a pdf format or Excel. Click on which format you prefer [PDF/Excel] to open. There is a description of what each reports provides under the name of each report.
