Create a centralized procurement store

Log on to the Distributor Console. Go to Store > Distribution Store Management and click New Store. In Store Configuration, set the sales model to Distribution - Centralized Procurement. For other configurations and activation steps, see Distribution store activation guide.

After the store becomes active, click Select Channel Service. In the pop-up window, select a partner channel service and click OK.

Note

If you cannot confirm the channel service, contact the channel provider or a LinkedMall operations specialist. After you select a channel service, you cannot change or reselect it. You must create a new store to select a different one.

After you select a channel service, you can contact the channel provider for review and product distribution.

Create a procurement order

Important

Ensure your withholding Alipay account has a sufficient balance before you create a procurement order. This prevents order failures.
The system does not support secondary payments. If a procurement order is in the Pending Payment state due to an insufficient balance, you must top up the balance and place the order again.

Click Go to Store Operations to open the Distributor Supply Console.

In the navigation pane on the left, choose Procurement > Procurement Order Management > Procurement Order Management. On the Batch Procurement Orders page, click Create Batch Procurement Order.

Create a procurement order as follows:

Ordinal Number	Description
1	Enter a Name and Task Description for the procurement order. Keep the default values for other settings. Click Next.
2	Follow the on-screen instructions. First, download the Excel template. Then, fill in the order information for each item in the template. When you are finished, upload the file and click Next. Note In the Excel file, field names marked in red and the Channel User ID are required. Other fields are optional. Carefully check the product ID and recipient information. Field descriptions: Supplier ID: The channel service ID. You can obtain it from the channel provider. You can also view the partner channel service ID after you click Select Channel Service on the Distribution Store Management page. Recipient Name: Only English letters, numbers, and Chinese characters are supported. Do not use other symbols. Shipping Address: Enter a real and complete shipping address, such as XX Province (Required), XX City (Required), XX District (Required), XX Street/Town (Required), XX Community, Building XX, Room XX. Channel User ID: This is the buyerId in the LinkedMall API. It can be understood as the buyer's userId. Distributors can customize this ID but must ensure that the ID for each buyer is unique.
3	Click Generate Procurement Order.
4	The system redirects you to the Batch Procurement Orders page. Find the procurement order that is pending execution and click Start Execution. The procurement task starts and enters the (Executing) state. Wait for the task to complete. You can refresh the page to view status updates. When the status updates to (Completed), the procurement task is finished. Click View Details in the preceding figure to go to the subtask list for the procurement order. You can view the execution results of the subtasks. Each subtask corresponds to one order, which is one row of order data in the Excel file. Note If a subtask fails, first check whether the data entered in the Excel file, such as the product ID, is correct. If the data is correct, copy the subtask ID and submit a ticket in the DingTalk service group.
5	Confirm receipt: In the procurement order list, click View Details to go to the subtask list for the procurement order. In the Actions column of the subtask list, click Confirm Receipt to complete the order.
