Terms/Disclaimers Mtc.
Within the RollMaster System, you can now upload various PDF files containing additional Terms, Disclaimers, Disclosures, etc. information to be printed along with one, some, or all customer documents. This feature is highly customizable in terms of what triggers the PDF to prompt for printing, so the possibilities are considerable. Please Note: the Foxit Reader app is required to be installed in order for this feature to work.
Design Purpose & Possibilities:
This feature allows you to add key documents for customer consideration that can be triggered to print based on custom variables. Some document possibilities include a General Terms & Conditions page to print with every Sales Agreement; an Acclimation Warning for Wood/Laminate to print with Sales Agreements only when wood/laminate is sold; a Labor Pre-installation Checklist to print on all Sales Agreements where Labor appears on a Job; a Return/Claims Policy to print on all Invoices, which can be different based on type of product sold, and on and on.
Customizable options for each PDF include by Branchor for the entireCompany, any combination of Quote, Sales Agreement, or Invoice; triggered by a specific Product Typeor Product Code, and they can each be set to Required, Suggested, or Optionalto print at the discretion of the User.
How It Works:
When you select a graphical printer to print a Quotation, Sales Agreement, or Invoice, you will follow all the same steps for printing. Prior to actual printing, the system will prompt a Select Documents To Printbox as follows:
All documents tied to the specific customer document you are printing will appear in the box above. Any that are set to Suggestedor Requiredwill automatically prompt “Y” in the Printcolumn. To add an Optionalfile, double-clickon the item to add it to the print que. You can also double-click on Suggested files to remove from print que. Click the Continuebutton to begin printing all documents.
Setup:
Setup, uploading, and editing of PDF files takes place in the System Maintenance module under the Document Maintenance Menu option. At the very bottom of this menu, you will see a new option as follows: Terms / Disclaimers Maintenance. When you enter this module, a Terms & Disclaimer Document Maintenance screen will appear as follows:
Any existing PDF documents will appear in the screen above. To upload a new PDF, click the Upload New PDFbutton at the top left and select a file from your hard drive. It will appear in the screen above for you to edit the Print Settings. All columns, aside from the Filenamecolumn, can be edited by clicking on a line to prompt the customizable Print Settingsoptions screen as follows:
After a new file has been uploaded, you will see a blank Print Settingsscreen, just like the one above, but without any presets so you can complete the settings applicable to the file. The first four fields (1)will allow you to create an internal Descriptionfor the file, select a specific Branch, or leave the **All**default setting, select a specific Product Type, or leave the **All**default setting, and/or select a specific Product Code, or leave the **All**default setting.
The Apply To Documents(2)box defaults to blank. You must make a selection of one or more Documentsto prompt the file to print. The All option will prompt the file to print for all three customer Documents.The Print Requirement(3)box allows you to determine whether the file prints despite what the User wants or based on User discretion. The Optionalrequirement displays the option for the User to print the file. The Suggestedrequirement makes a stronger suggestion to print, but doesn’t require a print. The Requiredoption will print the file without the User needing to make a decision.
When you make any edits to a file, a Savebutton will appear at the bottom right of the screen as follows:
Be sure to click this button to keep any changes. The system will prompt a Settings Saved!message when complete.
