What is Order Collection & Entry?

Customer Order Collection & Entry involves coordination between customers, sales representatives, customer service team members, technical sales support staff and order schedulers to collect and enter customer orders. Once the order has been collected by the sales representative, customer service team members confirm the order details and enter them into customer relationship management (CRM) software. At that point, the order is ready to be fulfilled. In some cases, a technical sales representative may have to step in to work out any technical issues related to the customer's request.
