Delivery Only Order Type – How To & Usage Guidelines

Written by Renee McNeese

Overview

The Delivery Only order type is a restricted-use order type designed for specific pre-approved customers that require a unique billing workflow.

These customers typically:

  • Receive multiple device deliveries throughout the month

  • Sign paperwork once at the end of the period

  • Are processed through a separate reconciliation deal to finalize billing


✅ When to Use Delivery Only

Use Delivery Only only for the following approved customer accounts:

  • BECU (Boeing Employees Credit Union)

  • Nordstrom

  • OSU (Ohio State University)

  • PSJH (Providence St. Joseph Hospitals)

  • T-Mobile (Service Exchange stock bulk orders / special rental program)


🚫 When NOT to Use Delivery Only

This order type must NOT be used as a generic or catch-all option.

It is not allowed for:

  • Service swaps

  • Moves

  • No-charge (N/C) accessories

  • Re-deployments

  • Any standard or non-approved customer transactions

👉 These scenarios should be submitted using the correct order type (e.g., Move, Standard, Accessory Add-On, etc.).


⚠️ Important Compliance Rules

  • Delivery Only is restricted to the approved customer list only

  • Any proposal submitted under this order type for non-approved accounts will be returned to Sales

  • This is a controlled process tied to specialized billing workflows


🔁 Process Flow (High Level)

Sales Responsibility

  1. Confirm the customer is on the approved Delivery Only list

  2. Create the proposal using Delivery Only order type

  3. Ensure:

    • Correct customer selection

    • Accurate delivery details

    • Notes clearly indicate Delivery Only use case (if applicable)


OSS (Order Support) Responsibility

  • Review Delivery Only orders during validation

  • Confirm the customer is on the approved list

  • If NOT approved:

    • Kick the proposal back to Sales for correction


Post-Delivery

  • Devices are delivered without full financial processing

  • A reconciliation deal is later created to:

    • Consolidate deliveries

    • Generate final paperwork

    • Complete billing

  • All delivery only SO's in EA are NOT billed out until the reconciliation order has been processed. The delivery only jobs are then compled in PREO and the job numbers are updated on the SO to the reconciliation job number.
