The top group of settings allow you to change the titles in the advanced search dialog box. With the middle group you can change the specials search box which is accessed by clicking Specials. The last grouping lets you control the two headings that orders are grouped under to signify if they are complete or not. This information is displayed when Order Status is clicked.

Screen 5

These settings give you control over the order headings used on the final step (step 3) of order confirmation.

Shipto

There are three ShipTo options that display during step 2 of the check out process:

  • Use Billing Address - Inserts address information from the Billto file.

  • New Shipping Address -  When this option is selected the address has to be manually entered.

  • Shipping Addresses on File - These addresses are pulled from the Shipto File (FIL 15) for the account. If there are multiple shipping addresses, a selection box appears.

Presentation2.png

Note:   You can change the titles of the shipto options to reflect your business terminology.

Changing the shipto address can also change the Request Date. This is due to a variety of factors including the difference in location, different shipping routes and runs.

Ship Via

Determine the ship via code that is used.

When Ship Vias are created via the Classification Codes File (FIL 19), the field Is This Ship Via a Valid Choice for Remote-Access Accounts? controls whether or not a ship via is displayed on applications such as Decor 24. If a Ship Via code has this field set to N, it will not be an option in the Ship Via drop down box. HOWEVER, the default Ship Via of the account you are working with in Decor 24 overrides the Is This Ship Via a Valid Choice for Remote-Access Accounts? setting. For example, if the Ship Via WC (usually will call), is set-up to not be used for remote access accounts (such as Decor 24), it will not display when you are searching for a Ship Via.UNLESS it is the default Ship Via assigned to the account you are placing an order for as assigned in the Billto File (FIL 1).

You can let the system automatically select inventory via ISO, or you can make manual selections.

Presentation10.png

This screen lets you change two of the messages that are associated with order entry. The first message appears when there is not enough inventory to cover an order. This message should only appear on the Item Information screen if:

Presentation4.png

The next three screens pertain to notes and error messages that appear via the shopping cart. Error messages appear in red and notes are blue.

Screen 10

Presentation11.png

This screen contains a notification and an error message that pertain to order entry. To change these messages, simply enter in the new one underneath the default text and press Enter.

Note:  Words shown prefixed with an (*) such as *SERIAL# are variables that you can insert anywhere in your message. The variable is replaced dynamically with the current value.

Screen 11

Presentation12.png

The first message alerts your users that there is a better, less expensive way to order a rolled good item than how it was entered. The functionality behind this message uses ISO and its “Best Buy” philosophy. If there is a best buy for the quantity selected, a single line for the best buy roll is displayed showing the roll and cut price.

The second message lets the operator know that the displayed warehouse has enough inventory to satisfy the order.

Screen 12

Presentation13.png

Both of these messages pertain to an item’s No Break policy. This control is established in the Item File (Option 2 on the File Maintenance menu) under the Policies field. If NB is entered into this field, then the item has a no break policy.

Screen 13

Presentation14.png

These settings control the message sent via the “S” = Send Msg Option at the bottom of the User Settings File Maintenance screen and the Password Reminder.

Screen 14

Presentation15.png

Some of the titles that this screen affects are shown below. 

Presentation5.png

Screen 15

Presentation16.png

An email entered into the From E-mail Address Override setting overrides the default email address set-up in menu option ODS 100 -Email Defaults. This provides the ability to control and override the default “FROM” address when a price list is emailed to D24 users. If an email address was entered in the Presentation Settings, it is automatically inserted in as the “From” email address.

Presentation16_1.png

Anytime a Price List is requested, regardless of the format (e.g., spreadsheet, posted to web, PDF), an email is generated and sent to the requestor.

The options on this screen allow you to change the subject text of the email and add body text (the default is no body text).

Screen 16

These settings allow you to customize the format of the Price List PDF. Unless another IFS path is entered into these fields the Dancik default format is used.

Presentation17.png

Note:   The PDF default is installed into your IFS when Décor 24 is updated. If this file becomes damaged or corrupted, this functionality will not work properly.

These three settings are for ADVANCED USERS who have knowledge of the following:

Note:   Dancik can develop a custom .XSLT file for a fee.

Note:   If you do not receive data after working with the advanced settings, check to ensure that the entry os400.awt.native=true is set-up in your System Properties Defaults.

If you are not familiar/comfortable with all of the above applications, it is recommended that you do not try to change the PDF format.

Note:  To customize your PDF price list, contact Dancik’s Professional Services (profserv@dancik.com).

The setting, IFS Path for Logo (PDF Only), defines where your logo is stored. You need to know how to navigate the IFS. Enter the directory path to the logo in this field. If no path is entered, no logo is displayed.

Screen 17

These options deal with the “Post to Web” option when requesting a price catalog. Unless another IFS path is entered into these fields the Dancik default format is used.

Note: The Post to Web default is installed into your IFS when Décor 24 is updated. If this file becomes damaged or corrupted, this functionality will not work properly.

Presentation18.png

All four of these settings are for ADVANCED USERS who have knowledge of the following:

If you are not familiar/comfortable with all of the above applications, it is recommended that you do not try to change the Post to Web Format format.

Note:  To customize your “Post to Web” price list, contact Dancik.

The last two options direct the system where to place the unformatted XML files. The first setting: IFS Path for “Post to Web” XML file (Default is: /home/www/d24/pricelist/) is for internal use, and the second URL Prefix for Post to Web XML Link. Default value will be a combination of “Your Systems URL” from WEB menu option 100 appended with “/d24/pricelist/” is the URL link that is emailed to your customers containing the Price List.

These directories act as a holding place for the XML data. Whenever a user clicks on an XML file, it automatically gets formatted to a readable document via the XSLT stylesheet.

Note:  You can also use a third party application to convert the XML data.

Screen 19

Screen 19 contains settings pertaining to Item Inventory.

Presentation19.png

The Item discontinued message appears on the Product Search and Item Information windows. The Item Discontinued functionality has to be activated by the Global or User setting Enable warning message for discontinued items on screen 4 of the settings.

Presentation6.png

The Insufficient Inventory message also appears on the Item Information window.

Note:   The Insufficient Inventory functionality has to be activated via the Global or User setting Enable insufficient inventory message on screen 4 of the settings.

Screens 20 and 21

These screens allow you to change the titles of the Dashboard widgets and the column headings for the displayed information.

image23.gif

Screen 22

This screen contains settings that relate to the message displayed if Promotional Pricing is used to reprice an order.

Presentation22.png

If activated by the Global/User setting Allow Job Name/Customer PO# Promo re-pricing, Decor 24 checks the Promotional Pricing File to see if a promotion has been created for either the Job Name or the PO#. If an entry does exist in the Promotion File for either the Job Name or the PO#, the pricing on the order may be changed to reflect the promotion.

Note:   If the Promotional Pricing feature is activated via the Global or User setting, the promotional pricing message will always appear when using Decor 24. If you want to activate this feature but do not want the message to appear, enter <b> as a custom Promotional Pricing message. This overrides the default message with a blank message.

The message “Promotional prices may have been found that affected unit price on your order lines.” is displayed during Step 3 of the check out process.

Presentation1.png 

Screen 23

This screen allows you to customize the disclaimer message that appears when a special item is ordered.

This functionality has to be activated via the global/user setting Display Special Order Disclaimer on screen 5 of the global/user settings.

Note: Special order items are designated with an “S” in the Inventory Code field of the Item File.

D24_111.png

Disclaimer Statement - this is the main disclaimer text on checkout screen 3.

Acceptance Text - this is the text that appears next to the check box that must be selected in order to continue processing the order.

Acceptance Warning Message - this is the text for the warning message that appears if the user did not select the acceptance check box.

Note: If Special Order Disclaimer text does not exists, but the processes is enabled, nothing is displayed (no default will be used). The text “I have read and accept the Special Order terms.” and the checkbox are also not to be displayed.

Displaying the Disclaimer

The disclaimer appears on the Order Confirmation window (screen 3) of the order process.

Notice also that the item along with an “S” denoting it as special appears in red.
