As soon as new catalogs and FOC pages appear on the site, you can begin adding items to your carts, completing early catalog confirmation, and submitting final orders.
Here are the key dates in the ordering process:
Catalog and FOC Page Release:
- Each month, a new catalog appears on the PRH Self-Service homepage.
- Weekly FOC pages are available on the homepage and include all titles in that FOC.
- You can immediately start browsing the catalog and FOC pages and adding items to your various carts.
Early Catalog Confirmation Date:
- All items can be adjusted up or down prior to a FOC deadline.
- If you add items to your carts (manually or via pasting a list of ISBNs/UPCs and quantities), you will still need to confirm FOC carts individually or by using multi-cart confirmation to confirm quantities in order to ensure your carts are converted to orders. More information on multi-cart confirmation can be found here.
- Quantities entered will automatically convert to orders at FOC if the quantities have been confirmed.
FOC Date:
- Each cart has an FOC date.
- Customers can add and reduce quantities in their carts at any time prior to the FOC deadline. Order quantities can be modified, even after the cart has been confirmed. You will need to confirm the updated quantities each time.
- Your latest confirmed quantities will be converted to an order after the deadline.
- After the FOC deadline, items can still be ordered through the General cart, but we cannot guarantee that we have enough remaining inventory to fulfill your order. Ratio variants cannot be ordered after the FOC deadline.
