Shipment Process Support Team

This article is here to help you to initiate a shipment. Shipments that are handled by the support team are often replacement wings or parts, but can also include orders of new items (e.g. additional payloads or new drones).

For every shipment we create a deal in Hubspot.

Create a deal:

  • Start creating a deal:
    • If you create the deal in the ticket view (right sidebar), the deal is automatically assigned to the ticket
    • Or directly in Sales -> “Create deal”, you can also assign it to a ticket when it already has been created.
  • Deal name: Item plus the name of the company ( if replacement: put WingtraOne ID and replacement "name of the company")
  • Deal pipelines: select “Support - Direct” or “Support - Reseller”
  • More information to all pipelines used by Support
    • Support - Direct
      • Shipments of new items (paid or warranty replacements) to direct sales customers.
    • Support - Reseller 
      • Shipments of new items (paid or warranty replacements) to resellers. Items for end customers of resellers are also shipped to the reseller and are part of this pipeline.
    • Support - Returns and Repairs
      • Items that are returned from a reseller or direct customer to Wingtra
  • Deal stage: 
    • contract discussion - not clear if the customer wants the item 
    • payment pending - they haven’t paid yet
    • closed won - If it is a warranty and the customer agrees to replace it. Or the customer has already paid for the item.
  • Amount: Price (can be updated later, will be displayed in deal name, if warranty = 0)
  • Close date: Date when deal should be paid. In warranty case it can be today.
  • Deal owner: the deal creator 
  • Is initial order: is it the first shipment to this customer? (if yes, they will receive a welcome mail from support)
  • Type of order:
    • paid - if not warranty or order of something new
    • Free under warranty - if warranty (e.g. technical failure, Wingtra goodwill)
    • Wingtra inventory at distributor - our drones at distributors place (Warranty express units). 
  • Country: Where customer/reseller is from
  • No. of drones: if the shipment includes a drone 1, if not 0, wing is counted as drone
  • Customer reference: not relevant for support
  • Signing date: Date when they agree to buy the item. If warranty, you can put today's date.
  • Is temporary export?: If the new drone will replace a drone that has been temporarily exported.

Create shipment

  • Generally, shipments are only created once the invoice is paid. In Support we often do exceptions, if the customer already ordered items before and paid his previous invoices or if it is under warranty (no payment required).
  • In case warranty assessment has not been finished but a fast replacement is requested, clarify with the customer if he would pay expenses in case it is not a warranty case. If he agrees, we can already ship the replacement parts.
  • Add Products - in the right sidebar in the deal view
    • If you have not already when opening the deal, add the products that need to be shipped
