What's New in Printcost 9.8.

Sales, Purchasing & inventory

Printcost 9.8 brings with it some new features and some different ways of doing things. For example, if you are involved in using Printcost to order, manage inventory, despatch items and invoicing, you will notice some changes.

You will find all the information on how to use these new and modified features under the Sales, Purchasing and Inventory tabs (above). In particular, in Printcost 9.8:

you can consolidate two or more sales orders (or parts of orders) on a single invoice
Previously you could only have one sales order number printed on the header of an invoice. Now you can specify an individual line item for each sales order or part of a sales order, e.g., where one or more of the sales orders have not been completely fulfilled.
the job number is no longer linked directly to the customer.
Instead, it's the order number (Order ID) that is linked directly to the customer. This means it does not matter whether the order is fulfilled from production (Job), from stock or both. This means you can also gang your orders on an individual job.

Note: If you want a single 'Order Number' to print on the invoice header as opposed to an order number being printed per line item, contact the Printcost team and we will set it up for you.

ePrintcost

If you use ePrintcost, you will now find a range of topics under the ePrintcost tab (above). For example, you will find step-by-step procedures on how to:

turn on and set up ePrintcost for your customers
create templates for your customers to use and order product, and
using Printcost's InDesign plugin, export templates from InDesign and import them into ePrintcost.
