Custom Products

When ordering a product, if the desired size or configuration isn't on the price list, you can create and order a "Custom Product" and set your own price on the spot.  This avoids the need to clutter your price list with rarely ordered sizes.  This is also a convenient way to add an Extra to the product.

1. Click on the shopping cart (Order Product tool) .  Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut "Q" to open the order menu.
2. Select "Custom Product" from the popup menu.
   
   
   
   
3. The Custom Product dialog will appear.
   
   
   
   
4. Choose a Presentation Option from the drop-down menu.  It is important to note that if the product has a Supplier attached, only those presentation options available from that Supplier will appear as options.  To access ALL presentation options, hold the OptionAlt key while clicking on the drop-down arrow.
5. Choose a Production Profile (or use Default).
6. Select a size from the drop-down menu.  You can choose "manage" if you want to create a custom size.
7. Enter a quantity and price.
8. If Product Codes are enabled, enter one manually here.  Because the "Custom Product" doesn't exist in the Product & Pricing Manager, one cannot be automatically generated.
9. Add any "Extras" if applicable.
10. Click on the Add button.

Ordering Custom Products

Applied Frames & Mats

• When ordering a custom product that includes a mat or frame, you may also need to set a price for these additional components.
• Mousing over the applied mat or frame will expose the calculations used to create the final price of the mat or frame (if your frame or mat is a fixed price, there is no calculation).
  
  

Adjusting the Cropping on a Custom Product

In the "Custom Product" dialog, the Cropping tool appears at the top-right of the image preview.  Clicking this tool opens the "Working with Images, Cropping view" section, allowing you to adjust the image.  In order to crop the image, a product must be created first.  

• Click "Yes" to create a new product and adjust the cropping.  
• Remember, the product isn't ordered at this stage.  After making adjustments, proceed to order the product.
