Split Cart by Vendor

Customers can purchase from multiple vendors in a single checkout. The products are added to the cart and split by each Vendor’s location.

This enables UC Marketplace to support complex marketplace fulfillment capabilities including consignment grouping per Vendor warehouse location, the ability to orchestrate orders based on availability of stock, proximity of location to customer and warehouse priority.

The customer is presented with a clear view that indicates from whom they’re purchasing. Shipping is also calculated per grouped consignment (per Vendor by Location or Warehouse).
