In this document we will cover how to create, edit, and copy a single Job. PrintJobManager™ allows anyone to create a Job from a computer, smartphone, or tablet by using the product engines you have created.
What is the difference between an Order and a Job?
A Job is a single product or estimate that can be entered and is treated as a single line item with information, whereas an Order can consist of a single job, a single estimate or it can contain multiple jobs and estimates, we have taken this approach for a couple of reasons...
- When creating an order that may have multiple parts in PrintJobManager, it will hold the organization settings so all you need to do is select a new product engine and answer the prompts
- Most online storefront solutions use a checkout cart that can contain multiple items and each item may have different production workflow. Here is an example:
- Order # 100 - 4 items
- 100-1 May be for 500 Pocket Folder
- 100-2 May be for 500 Business Cards
- 100-3 May be for 500 Brochures
- 100-4 May be for 2 Banner
For More information about Editing Orders please see (add order kb article link here)
When creating a Job you will have 3 options once completed.
- “Save And Send” - Save the Job and send your customer an acknowledgement.
- “Save And Manage” - Save the details of the Job for future adjustments
- “Save” - Save the Job with no email sent to the customer and view the Edit Order view to add another Job/Estimate to the Order.
