Admin Features

Print Store Branches Management

With an objective to provide facility to take orders from walk-in customers and manage shipment for pickup from branch, we are introducing a new feature to manage store branches that you may add as part of expanding your printing business operations. You can create any number of branches and each branch will have separate branch admin login. You can even assign orders to branches individually from the order listing/details page, view reports branch-wise and send email notifications to branch admins while updating orders. You can also associate printer with branch so branch admin and printer can be change profile without login.

A user logging in as branch admin can view all orders assigned to their branch and also perform actions using Action menu as applicable. They shall as well see the orders their branch is serving as the order pick-up point for, and also be able to download necessary shipping label for all such orders.

When placing offline orders on customer’s behalf or while using ‘Login as Customer’ option to place order on behalf of customer, you or the branch admin can directly enter the transaction id manually if POS (Point of Sale) payment method is enabled.

Accordingly, corporate sub-admin users can be created (apart from corporate super-admin user) with specific role access for only particular sections/modules that are relevant to particular corporate/all corporates as per admin group created.

Custom Size Product Enhancement

Additional Option Rules: Just like you can currently create additional option rules for fixed size products based on size, quantity or additional options and its certain combinations, you can now create additional option rules for dynamic size products based on product’s area, parameter (depends on height and width entered/selected by customer on front-end), quantity or additional options and its certain combinations which are listed below:

Parameter-Quantity based

Additional Option based

Parameter-Additional Option based

While setting additional option rule based on parameter-quantity or parameter-additional option, you will be required to set parameters for creating rule – like area, perimeter, height or width – whether they should be equal to’, ‘greater than or equal to’ or ‘less than or equal to’ the value you enter in the rule configuration.

Price lookup configuration: Some of the printers need to calculate total area by multiplying height and width entered by customer with product’s quantity to help with calculating exact range of area. So, we are introducing two separate ways to lookup area for dynamic size products in our solution:

Only Area (height x width)

Area with Quantity (height x width x quantity)

Setup cost: We have provided for dynamic size products is ‘Setup Cost’, a fixed price that can always be charged (added in base price) for such products irrespective of the product size or additional option selected by customer. Both of the options, ‘Area Lookup’ & ‘Setup Cost’ will appear under product settings (for dynamic size products only).

Stock management for printing products

Just like you can setup stock management for predefined products, we have added new option to setup stock management for printing products (apparel products) as well though this may not be applicable for all printing products. Examples of printing products for which stock management may apply can be mug, cap, t-shirts, etc. The functionality would actually remain similar to how it works for predefined products.
