One shipment or multiple shipments

In analyzing the Wholesale table in the Access database, we noticed that a customer can have multiple duplicate orders on the same day. For example, the table shows 30 unique records (30 unique "Sales doc") for same customer (Customer = 128104, Name = The Bay (TDC-0596) ) for the same SKU (SW221-001) for the same quantity (2) on the same day (Created on = 18-Mar-06).

Is this batch of orders physically picked and shipped as 30 different orders, or are they picked as 30 unique orders and then consolidated into 1 shipment prior to sending to The Bay? Is each order a store order that The Bay crossdocks at their DC?

Site Visits

The RFP mentions the site visits to occur between May 14 & June 1. Are the site visits going to be delayed or will they be scheduled for next week?

If the site visits are delayed, will the response submission date be delayed as well or will it remain June 1?

Inbound SKU's

1) How many SKUs per container load on average?

2) Can Arc provide a week or two of actual receipts to examine?
