Emery Waterhouse: Send Order
Prior to sending your first order, contact Emery's MIS department at (207) 775-2371 to make sure you are set up for Epicor Telecommunications. It is also important to make sure that Emery clears your mailbox before you send and receive your first order electronically. You should already know your order deadline. Orders must be placed by the end of the day; however, if this is your first electronic order, it should be placed by mid-day and you should contact Emery customer service at (207) 775-2371 extension 2260, to confirm that the order was received and formatted properly.
This job aid assumes that you have completed all the set up steps required to send orders to Emery. See the job aid "Emery Telecom Setup" for more information.
