To order parts manually:

The Create Order feature allows you to quickly create an order for all parts--across all distributors--that are ready to be manually ordered. In order to manually process a part, it must first be added to your Stocking Guide. (Click here for more information on adding parts to the Stocking Guide.)

Notes:

• If a part is already set to be reordered automatically, you must uncheck the Auto Order box before it can be manually ordered. 
• The "There are no results to display" message will display if attempting to manually order parts on any parts where Auto Order shows Yes.  

1. From D2DLink, click Stocking Guide.
2. Click Create Order.
   
3. All parts with a quantity on hand lower than your targeted stock level will display. Click the minus (-) sign next to any part that you do not want to order at this time.
4. If needed, change the part order quantity.
5. Verify your Shipping Information.
   
6. Click Submit. Your order information is sent to the distributor.
