Survey: TV Shipping vs. Home Delivery

Shipping = via UPS or other carrier
Home Delivery = via Best Buy delivery from a warehouse truck on a scheduled date
What's your preference - shipping or home delivery - for large television purchases?  If shipping is preferred, what's the maximum size TV you would select for shipping versus home delivery?

Delivery.
And as rwillen said I never take custody of the TV until I can remove top half of packaging, check for cracks and plug in for a few seconds to Make sure it powers up with no extremely major screen defects. This takes less then 5 minutes as long as you have the extension chord ready.
Delivery people once told me that I couldn't do that before and to just "sign here". I told them that unless I did then they might as well just load the TV back up on the truck as I will refuse delivery. They changed their tune fast. I don't expect them to wait 20 minutes while I check every minuscule detail, but less then 5 minutes is more than reasonable. Oh and I do tip if I see them properly taking care of the TV when unloading from the truck and for the patience of waiting 5 minutes for me to check.

  • User exit -Item Category Determination for a Home Delivery Shipping Condn

    Hi All
    1.     A Standard Order is created in ECC and if the shipping condition is HOME DELIVERY the default site that gets determined will be a HUB and if it is an UPS shipping condition the default site that gets determined is the PDC
    2.     The default Item category determined for the delivery relevant items (Box1 and Box2) will be “ZSNP” which is fine if the Shipping condition is UPS and the site is PDC.
    3.     However if the Shipping condition is HOME DELIVERY and the site is a HUB then the “ZSNP”  Item Category has to be flipped to “ZTBB” which then will determine the correct Schedule line category “ZB” and triggers the IPO process. This in turn auto creates a purchase requisition on the PDC when the Sales Order is saved
    plz help
    thnx
    rohit

    Hi Lawrence Tam,
             If you are going to create a new item category usage to determine an item category, you need to add a new line in transaction VOV4 for the new combination of sales document type + Item Cat. group + usage + high leve item cat. to determine the item category.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mariano.

  • Can I change pre-orders from In-Store Pickup to Ship-to-Home?

    Right out of the gates, I know I'm far from the first person to have concerns about amiibos and pre-orders associated with them.
    I have all of wave 3 as well as the Best Buy exclusive Meta-Knight preordered for In-Store Pickup, but my Wave 2 preorders have been extremely hit or miss thus far. My Little Mac never showed up in store, and when the CS representative there offered to have one shipped to me, it was cancelled. My Pit never showed up, and I was never even given a chance for a contingency. I had just missed out on it entirely.
    My friends who pre-ordered with Ship-to-Home have had little to no issue, so if possible, I would like to change my preorders to be handled that way.
    Overall, and like many others, I'm very disappointed with Best Buy's In-Store Pickup option. As a result, I find myself backing up pre-orders with other retailers. I'm not wild about the concept of preordering with Best Buy being such a gamble. If there's any way to shift me over to Best Buy's more reliable Ship-to-Home option, I would very much like to do it.
    Thanks for any help or advice.

    Hi there ActionKazimer, 
    The amiibo figures are wildly popular! I can understand why you would be concerned with your store pickup pre-order if you haven't had the best of luck with your previous ones, which I am deeply sorry to hear about. 
    Sadly, as the amiibos are currently sold out online, we would be unable to modify your order for shipping to your home. With that said, at this time your best bet would be to keep the pre-orders as they are. I apologize if this was not the response you were hoping for when you reached out to us on the forum. 
    Please let me know if you have any other questions! 
    Sincerely,

    inner join vbep

  • Enable shipping condition in delivery header to be editable

    Hallo experts, need your advise on below:
    Currently the delivery header shipping condition is not allowed to be changed in VL01n or VL02n, it's somehow "grey out". How can I make this field editable? Is it by user exit or transaction variant? Honestly speaking, I don't prefer transaction variant. Is there any SAP standard way to do so except transaction variant?
    Thanks in advance.

    Shipping Condition in Delivery header usually copied, if shipping condition is assigned to  sales document type in customization, otherwise system copies from corresponding customer master data.  As far as standard SAP, you can not change this value during delivery processing. You may check for user exit only.
    please update us if you find anyo therway
    thanks

  • How are shipping point and delivery note connected ?

    I wanted to understand how is shipping point connected to process of creating delivery notes....can we configure sap using SPRO such that the delivery note creation happens automatically for certain shipping point once the order is created and saved ....and for certain shipping point the delivery note is not automatically created ( assuming we are using the same order type) but the determination of automatic DN creation is done by the value of the shipping points ??

    Actually what is shipping point?
    Shipping point is an independent org.unit which is linked to the plant and represent the point of departure or receipt of materials.
    Normally lot of shipping points are assigned to the plant.
    Relation:
                   Actually a delivery is created from a single shipping point only.. That is the reason when u complete the sales order, at the time of creating the delivery note, u are forced to enter the shipping point, without that the system willn't proceed further.
    Determination:
    It is determined with the formula of shipping conditions + loading grp + deliv. plant
    Answering to ur 2nd query,
    when u are creating the delivery from the sales order screen (by going to menu bar and click delivery), the system automatically assumes the shipping pt is from the sales order.
    But if u enter the different shipping point in delivery note creation, the system will thro an error that delivery split due to diff. shipping points.
    Hope i clarify ur queries, ur further queries are welcomable.
    Reward points if useful...

  • Confirmed Pre-order (home delivery) + Apple store reservation

    I am eligible for upgrade & was lucky enough to get both a confirmed Pre-order w/ home delivery & a confirmed reservation at the local Apple store - my question is, Can I get them both at the $299 price OR will the instore reservation @ Apple see that I have already paid the discounted price for my home delivery?
    I originally did this becuase of all the issues, i wasn't 100% sure that things had went through smoothly (mostly becuase they went TOO smooth - I was done w/ both processes in under 5 minutes).
    If I could get a 2nd phone at discounted price, I'd likely sell it. If I can't, does anyone know if I can give my reserved phone @ the store to someone else? Do I have to wait in line & get the phone only to hand it off to someone else for activation OR could I just send someone else w/ my e-mail confirmation of the reservation?

    It all depends on if they check the ATT system again or not. I ordered for Apple delivery, but ATT knows that. I'm assuming when you go in the store, they check your ATT account once more, since they ask for your information to confirm what price you qualify for.
    I suppose you can try it and see, but I wouldn't count on it.

  • Where does the data come from which powers the ship date and delivery date

    Hi All,
    Please let me know, where does the data come from which powers the ship date and delivery date?.
    Adi.

    Hi,
    DELIVERY DATE  will be maintain in the SALES DOCUMENT TYPES in VOV8 in the tab REQUESTED DELIVERY DATE/PRICING DAE/PURCHASE ORDER DATE.
    The field is PROPOSE DELIVERY DATE .
    If you check the field then the document created date will be the Requested date and will be carried from ORDER TO DELIVERY.
    If you want the delivery date other thann the CURRENT date then you have to maintain the LEAD TIME in days in the same tab.
    SHIP DATE: is the date on which you do the PGI in the delivery .
    Please check them and revert back if u need further details
    thanks,

  • FedEx Home Delivery issues

    All FedEx Home Delivery drivers are contractors and get paid by the delivery attempt, has anyone had issues with the delivery drivers making a bump and run by leaving a call tag on your door without knocking or ringing the doorbell?
    This has happened numerous times to me and I think they are milking the system at the consumer's expense.
    Is there any way to assure that I will not get any deliveries from FedEx Home Delivery when ordering through Apple?
    After doing some research online, I noticed a disturbing trend that this is a normal occurance.

    This would not seem to have anything to do with the iTunes Store which has no shippable products of any kind. I presume you're referring to the Apple Store.
    Most carriers are supposed to get signatures for any delivery. If your local FedEx office is not doing so, I'd suggest you call them and discuss the issue with their local management. There is no way you can choose a particular carrier for an order, though if you have an Apple Store in your area, you may be able to place your order for in-store pickup.
    If you have further questions about ordering from the Apple Store, I'd suggest you call them directly. =

  • Custom field to add number of packages shipped along with Delivery

    Hi Sap Experts,
    We have scenario, we have created sales order with quantity 1(Like soft copy or hard copy of CD).
    Now we want to create delivery with sales order and quantity is 1(Copy from sales order).
    Our requirement is some time we have to send additional things like hard copy of manual or complement gift which we are not entering in sales order.
    Exp: Sales order- quantity 1.
    Want to deliver quantity 1(+ manual+ complement gift, these items are not part of standard order)
    For more clarity, we have to add one field and want to enter number (How many items we have send along with main materials and these items are not relevant for pricing also).
    So requirement is add one additional field in delivery header/item.
    Customer doesn’t want to use Free of goods or BOM which we have propose him. How to customize standard table and standard program.
    Kindly suggest.
    Regards,
    Kotli

    Hi All,
    We don't want to use BOM options.
    I have also checked "No. of packages'` at header level but my requirement is at item level.So we are also exploring the option of  APPEND  standard table and add this field.
    Kindly let me know  if we can do it without Appending standard table.
    Regards,
    Field to add to enter number of items which are  shipped to customer 

  • Shipping Options, Limit Delivery to Following Countries - heads up

    Currently there is an issue in the shipping options if there are multiple methods specified in shipping options.
    A case is current and is now with dev team, basically is as follows with work around until fixed.There seems to be a issue with shipping options:
    When a shipping option is selected, the "Limit Delivery to Following Countries" list should reload to reflect the countries selected. Now it works only for the first selection
    I have duplicated it internally, confirmed it and reported it to our development team. The ticket number is #2751493, for your reference.
    The workaround is to always re-start the process by going to Ecommerce->Shipping, instead of clicking on several shipping options to change them one by one. So, go to Ecommerce->Shipping options, select the one you want and make the changes. If you need to make change to another one, go back to Ecommerce->Shipping and then select it.
    Date 9 May 2012 FYI, hope this prevents others having issues with shipping

    The above should have read:

    Is it possible that you have different shipping points on the sales order, i.e. different at header and item level?

  • Shipping point - Inbound delivery

    Hi gurus,
    Which shipping point do we use in return delivery ? Can we keep the same shipping point for both
    outbound delivery & inbound delivery. If we maintain different shipping point for return delivery then what is the shipping point determination for inbound delivery?
    Thanks
    Rakesh

    Hi there,
    I would suggest you to maintain different shipping point for inbound if your plant is WH (warehouse) managed. Coz incoming items will be placed at a different storage bin. If WH is not active in your plant, then same shipping point would be fine.
    Define a new shipping condition for inbound scenario. Since the material is same, loading grp will anyway be the same. When maintaining the shipping point determination, propose the inbound shipping point in OVL2 with the inbound shipping conditions.
