FAQ – ORDERING OPTIONS AND QUICK ORDER

What are the different ways to place an order on Dubo.ca?

There are three ways to place an order: Browse and Search (standard catalog search), Quick Order, and Job Lists.

What is the Browse and Search ordering option?

The Browse and Search option allows you to navigate product categories or use the search bar to find items and add them to your cart.

How do I create a quick order?

You can create a quick order in two ways:

  • By entering product numbers (SKUs) or keywords directly into the Quick Order field.
  • By uploading your order using an Excel template (.xls / .xlsx).

After selecting your quantities, products can be added directly to your cart.

When should I use Quick Order vs. Job Lists?

Quick Order is ideal when you already know the product numbers and want to order rapidly. The Job Lists module is perfect for creating and re-using product lists specific to each project to speed up recurring purchases.

FAQ – QUOTES

How do I request a quote online on Dubo.ca?

You can request a custom quote directly from your shopping cart by selecting Request a Quote instead of checking out. Once submitted, your request is sent to your representative for review.

What happens after I submit a quote request?

Once your quote request is reviewed, you will receive an email notification, and the quote will appear in your My Quotes dashboard for approval or refusal. Once approved, you can convert it into an order directly in your account.

FAQ – WIRE CUTTING

How do I know which wire products can be cut online?

Wire products available for online custom cutting are clearly identified on Dubo.ca with a cut icon. Only products enabled in the system by your local branch are eligible for online wire cutting.

FAQ – JOB LISTS

How do I create a job list and add products to it?

You can create a new job list by giving it a mandatory name and an optional description. Products can be added by entering product numbers/keywords, or by importing a custom list using the provided Excel template.

Can I share a job list with my team?

Yes. Job lists can be shared with colleagues who have a Dubo.ca account (with options to grant editing rights) or sent via email as a copy, facilitating collaboration and procurement efficiency.

FAQ – CUSTOM PRODUCT CODES

How do I add a custom product code to an item?

To add a custom product code, locate the desired item on Dubo.ca and click Add My Part # (or custom code). You can then enter your internal reference code, which will be saved for future searches.

Can custom product codes be modified?
