create online orders from templates
When a customer places an order on-line, they can be prompted
to include certain information before the order can be sent,
for instance the correct cost code. On-line ordering can
therefore speed up the invoicing process, because all the
relevant information needed for billing has to be included
in the order before it can be placed.
Users can recall old jobs and request reprints
With access to both live and completed jobs, it's a simple
task to select an old job and request a re-print. If any rates
have changed in the interim, the system will re-calculated
on today's prices. |
