Need to set up your fulfillment station, but don't know where to start? Read on for some of our recommendations!
When it comes to fulfillment stations, we recommend that each team member who fulfills orders have their own station. Or, if you schedule a certain number of fulfillment employees at one time, you have enough fulfillment stations for each employee. So, if you have four (4) employees scheduled to fulfill orders, you would need four (4) fulfillment stations.
We walk through our recommended supplies for each station below.
Recommended Fulfillment Station Supplies
| Image | Name | Details |
| Computer |
Each station will need a computer where the employee can log into CommentSold and fulfill orders. Whether to use a Windows or Mac computer is up to you, but we recommend confirming it is compatible with your label printers and labeling printing software before making a purchase. |
