Talk:Order fulfillment/Archive 1

Service-based as well?
This page focuses on physical products. It would be nice to add sales and fulfilment of service-based products. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.30.194.245  (talk • contribs) 08:53, 13 September 2007

Terms
Why do people feel the need to remove a qualified external link that is not spam? Especially ones that are helpful to users? Not everyone that posts a link is looking to benefit from it, some of us actually want to contribute useful information to Wikipedia, in areas where we have expertise. If anyone can find a more complete list of fulfillment terms, please post it here. The best on I have found is:Commonly used fulfillment terms

Having worked in logistics for almost 9 years now, it was refreshing for me to find such a complete list. In fact, I have submitted a few definitions to this company to add to their page.

Olhager, 2003
Can someone go through the edit history and figure out what this reference refers to? --Ronz (talk) 22:07, 29 December 2008 (UTC)


 * It should be a reference to:
 * "Olhager J (2003), Strategic positioning of the order penetration point, International Journal of
 * Production Economics, Vol 85(3), pp. 319-329"


 * I would go through and give references, but you have me afraid you will just remove them now ;)


 * In all serious, I do appreciate what you guys are doing here.. but, I get the feeling you like to debate.. lol
