Key Bucky Box features

Web Store

Boxes

Boxes form the basis of what appears on your web store home page. Boxes can comprise anything you want to sell. Customers can add extra items into their boxes. For mystery box schemes, customers can optionally exclude and substitute items.

Box Items, Excludes and Substitutes

For veg box schemes where a box may contain seasonal produce that differs week to week, you can set up a list of Box Items, which is a list of all the possible items that may appear in your boxes (i.e. all the fresh produce that may be available for purchase during the season). Customers can opt to exclude and substitute these items if you activate this feature. Limits can be set on how many items can be excluded or substituted.

Extra Items

Customers can add extra items into their boxes (such as coffee, bread, eggs etc.). Extras have a unit quantity and a price.

Standing Orders, Single Orders

Orders from customers can be one-off or standing orders in weekly, fortnightly, or even monthly cycles.

All information from the web store and customer database such as orders, cancellations, and pauses in standing orders are used to generate a calendar of upcoming deliveries. This means you can get a good hold on your upcoming delivery days.

Packing

Packing sheets and courier labels can be exported from the system to be printed via mail-merge.

Delivery Planning

Bucky Box uses a simple drag and drop system for classifying delivery sequences and utilises a delivery sequence number to go on courier labels so you can load up the truck or van in the right order.

Delivery Services and Pickups

Customers are placed into Delivery Service / Pickup Points which best serves their area. A Delivery Service or Pickup Point can be assigned the day of week they operate and also a delivery fee.

Delivery Reconciliation

Every delivery can be marked as either delivered or cancelled. The reconciliations from these tags impact your customer's account in real-time and their accounts are deducted (or reversed for cancelled deliveries) accordingly.

Cash on Delivery Reconciliation

Customers who paid Cash on Delivery can be reconciled immediately with a simple click.
