Mercurius Australia School Ordering Quick Order by Product Code Icon

Quick Order by Product Code

The Quick Order function is an alternative way to order your products.

You still have access to the standard menus and search options, but this gives you a 'quick' way to type in the Product Code and Quantities you would like.

Very useful if you know exactly what you are wanting to order, or you are working from a list or spreadsheet in front of you.

Back to School Order Tips

From July each year, we accept forward orders for delivery in December and January ready for the new school year. We refer to these as BTS orders.

  • All BTS orders will be invoiced in January of the new school year.
  • All BTS orders will be clearly labelled by class, and delivered to your school in time for the beginning of the school year.
  • Working with Lists will help you save your Cart while you are still working on your order. You can Save your Cart and when you are ready, come back and Retrieve your list to continue working on your order.
  • Lists will also let you work on several orders simultaneously. Just save each as a separate list, remembering to delete previous versions to make sure you are always working on the most current version.
  • If a product is indicating it is out of stock, don't worry, all BTS orders are Pre-orders and we will be getting more stock in time for delivering your BTS order.
  • And most importantly, when you Finalise your BTS order, before submitting, remember to put 'BTS 2025' in your order reference for BTS orders, and NOW for current orders.

Do your Teachers Place their own Orders?

At some schools, a central ordering person places all Education Orders. At other schools, Teachers are responsible for their own budgets and materials they use in their classroom.

If you choose to give your Teachers direct access, we have further options available, depending on your authorisation process. In all cases, orders will be invoiced to your Central Account, and clearly indicate the teacher that placed the order.

Choose the option that suits you best:

  1. Teachers place orders, which we accept and process as approved orders.
  2. Teachers place orders, which we accept, but before processing, we request approval from a central ordering person.
  3. Teachers have access to key orders, but before submitting, SHARE the order with a central ordering person, who pre-approves and submits the order on the Teacher's behalf.

Are you a Teacher with your own login linked to your School? We recommend you explore the other hints on ordering you will find on this page - especially Working with Lists.

Student Lists for Parent Ordering

Do you provide Stationery Lists for your Students?

Did you know that Mercurius Australia offers this as a service?

We can work with your school to create your Stationery Lists for each Class. We then issue a code for your school, which you pass onto your parents. Parents then access the list through our website, and place and pay for their order online.

Orders are collated and packed together, and sent in Class sets, clearly labelled for each Student, as part of your Back to School Order.

During the year, parents can still access the Class Stationery Lists, and have orders delivered to their home address.
