Please consider the flexibility to use alternate materials and/or in-stock sizes.
Note: Die line (label proof) approval diagrams are typically made available 1 to 2 business days after AstroNova has received all information.
What communication can I expect once I place an order with AstroNova?
We aim to keep our customers as informed as possible as we fulfill your orders. After placing an order with AstroNova, you will receive a series of order update emails from AstroNova, from info@astronovainc.com, sent via system@sent-via.netsuite.com. If you do not see an email from these addresses, please check your Spam folder, and make sure you configure your settings to recognize these addresses as trusted senders.
The series of emails you will receive are as follows:
- Sales Order Acknowledgement: Upon approval of your order, you will receive an email that includes your order number, order date, expected ship date, item name(s), quantity, price, shipping method, billing and shipping addresses, and any other pertinent information. (This email’s subject line will read: AstroNova, Inc. Sales Order #SOxxx)
- Advanced Shipping Notice: This email is sent when your order ships. It contains a summary of items shipped, including net weight, country of origin, shipping method, and tracking number(s). Please note that you will receive multiple emails if multiple shipments are made. (This email’s subject line will read: Advanced Ship Notice PO#)
- Invoice: Once your item has shipped, we will process an invoice per your requirements. This invoice will summarize your order, payment terms, and details of your order. A secure link is included should you wish to pay via credit card. If you are a credit card customer without Net Terms, this will serve as your receipt. If you have Net Terms with AstroNova, remit payment using your previous payment method. (This email’s subject line will read: AstroNova, Inc.: Invoice #INVxxx)
Why is a credit card token required?
For your protection, we require a completed credit card token. Credit card tokenization provides an added level of security to help safeguard customer credit card information against possible fraud and data breaches.
Preauthorization is processed via token when an order is placed or within 30 days of shipment. We’ll charge the credit card at the time of shipment. AstroNova does not accept credit card information via email or phone and will never store credit card information on our network.
Can I track the progress of my order?
Upon approval of your order, AstroNova will send you a series of emails alerting you to the status of your order. To ensure you do not miss out on any critical updates and communications, we recommend you confirm you label astronovainc.com as a trusted sender in your email settings. (If you believe you may have missed an expected email, please check your spam folder.)
You will receive automatic emails at/for the following:
- Sales Acknowledgement
- Credit Card Token Authorization Request (if not yet completed)
- Advanced Shipping Notice
- Invoice
