Burlington Purchase Order Types (Part 2)
Vendors must pass EDI testing before they can process Ship-to Mark-for Orders and ship orders packed by store and shipped to one of Burlington distribution centers. Burlington Stores will generate a pre-distributed PO when shipping packed by store/shipped to DC. Orders generated will indicate “ship to DC, pack by store.” Vendors will receive a store distribution with the (850) purchase order.
Pack according to the store distribution, placing a unique UCC-128 label on each carton. Be sure to address the carton with the designated DC and mark with the appropriate store number. It is recommended that all pack by store/ship to DC orders be pre-ticketed.
Direct to Store Shipments
Burlington Stores will generate pre-distributed POs when shipping directly to stores. All freight for direct to store shipments must be pre-paid by the vendor. When shipping orders for new stores that are not open at the time of shipping, vendors should follow the Burlington instructions outlined.
