Overview of Managing Companies
What are companies for?
Why should you use them?
Providing a customized site for users
associated with a company. A company in
Digital StoreFront is an organization whose
members submit jobs to or order products
from a print shop.
To provide a custom portal to your site for
users associated with a specific company or
organization. This includes specific branding,
contact information, price sheets, and billing
units. Use companies when you want to
provide a certain group of users with a
similar shopping experience.
Companies are organizations whose members submit jobs to or order products from an assigned print
shop. For example, one company (associated group of users) may provide your organization with 50% of
your revenue. In this case, you can assign a discounted price sheet commensurate with the volume of
business. In order to assign a specific price list, you need to set the company up in Digital StoreFront.
The Companies page is used to add, remove, or update information about companies whose members
place orders through the system. You can assign the company to a storefront and customize the
storefront (see
Customizing Storefronts
) so that a specific branding appears on the web site when a
company user logs in, add contact information and assign employee users to default groups, price
sheets, and billing units for their associated company. You can also edit and delete companies.
Establishing companies allows you to:
•
Assign companies to groups for the purpose of allowing access to specific pages.
•
Assign users and cost centers to companies.
•
Assign specific pricing and pricing sheets to companies.
•
Run reports specifically by company.
