Gale Database Management and Renewal Program Team
On our team, we establish data standards and ensure compliance. We initiate system configurations and set-ups to meet stakeholder needs including standard account discounts, promotional codes, renewal programs, and more. We are in charge of releasing all standing orders for print and electronic products, and facilitating billing and invoicing. Our team also creates, maintains, and updates release schedules for products and distribution. We work with production to maintain the release of products and defective product maintenance. Having issues involving standing order process, backorder process, and receipt process? Yeah, we fix those problems too.
Gale Order Support Services Team
Our team is responsible for billing all electronic, GVRL, and print orders after our team reviews and processes quotes submitted by Sales or the customer. We process manual invoice request, returns, order-related credits, account reconciliation, and other support services. If a customer requests things such as a specific billing date, we make sure it happens! We approve orders, bill the customer, then request the order. Without us, the customer wouldn’t receive their order!
Gale Digital Solutions Services Team
We are responsible for installing electronic resources. When an order is made by the Order Support Services team, we make sure the customer then gains access to the resources they’ve purchased. Our team also generates an access letter that is sent to the customer, which includes instructions and links to the resources purchased. We contact you if we run into installation issues like missing information on an order. After installation is complete, we close out the order and our job is complete!

We provide customers with key documents and information such as duplicate invoices and order status. Our team maintains standing order adjustments and answers all invoice questions, addresses gale.com shopping cart issues, damage or defective claims, and other fulfillment and post-billing inquiries.
