ShipCompliant Non-Wine Product Compliance Exemption
How to set up your non-wine products to pass through ShipCompliant as exempt from compliance
Exclude Non-Wine Products From ShipCompliant Feature
The Exclude Non-Wine Products feature allows wineries to configure two general merchandise products in ShipCompliant — GeneralMerchandiseTaxable and GeneralMerchandiseNonTaxable — which act as proxy SKUs for non-wine items, enabling those products to flow through ShipCompliant as compliant without requiring individual product setup. This reduces the total SKU count in ShipCompliant, lowering both administrative effort and licensing costs. Note: this feature is intended for wineries that fulfill orders in-house, because only the two general merchandise SKUs — not the actual product SKUs — are sent through ShipCompliant.
If your winery is interested in this feature, please contact support@vinsuite.com to have it enabled for you. Let us know if you want ALL the non-wine products set to Exclude from Compliance or if you want to enable the non-wine products individually. Once enabled, you can toggle individual non-wine products to YES/NO to have those SKUs masked.
