How do you ship to multiple locations?
We frequently have requests to ship the goods contained in one Sales Order to several destinations.
I know of several types of "workarounds" but I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation to do this task in an efficient manner.
Right now this is what I am aware of:
[LIST=1]Multiple Item fulfillments for the single sales order / Drawback - This can only be handled by the Shipping / Warehouse manager as our Sales People cannot fulfill orders (yet they acquire the list of destinations)[/LIST]
[LIST=2]Add multiple addresses to the customer record: While this could work, there is the potential for mistakes long term when each customer record permanently stores a bunch of addresses that pertain to only one order.
