4.4 Shopping Cart Setup – Order

 

The Order tab (Fig 4.4.1) is where you customize the product pricing and the format of the order form.

 

Enter the desired Currency Symbol. The default value is $. This symbol will be displayed at the relevant locations on the Add to Cart and View Cart dialog boxes. To use another currency, copy the symbol from another source (like MS Word symbols) and paste it in the entry box.

 

The Email Subject, with Purchase Order as default, will be used as the Email Subject when the customer decides to email you the order form. You can change it accordingly.

 

You can customize your order form further by adding a header and/or footer. Click the Add Header button to add the desired header text (Fig 4.4.2). Format your text with your desired font, size, color etc. Similarly, click the Add Footer button to add the desired footer text. The header and footer will appear at the top and bottom of the order form respectively.

As your customers receiving your catalog CD would be able to send you their orders through Fax or Email, you can preview the order form first to check that it is in order. Click the Preview Fax Order or the Preview Email Order button to check out the order form. The program will prompt you to enter fictitious customer information according to the fields you have defined in the Customer setup (Fig 4.4.3).

 

Note: Fields marked with * are those that you defined in the setup as Required. If any of the required fields are not filled up, the program will prompt the customer to enter them before he can proceed.
