  1. Well, support told me it couldn't be done. I got no love on the forum either. We figured it out ourselves. If this will help anyone, for $10 I will tell you how we did it. Oh, what the hell, I will tell you for free. Short version: Create a group that controls what price you want a set of users to have and also create a separate group that controls what that same set of users can see within the store. Assign that set of users to both of those groups. In more detail: I create a group called "50_Percent_Markup" and one called "60_Percent_Markup". Set up Dynamic Pricing with the correct prices and tie it to these groups. Allow these pricing groups to only see products that are shared across multiple user groups. Create user groups to control what rights the users have within the store as you normally would. In this example: Company1Employees, Company1Managers, Company2Employees, Company2Managers Now assign users to the two correct groups: Company1Employees, 50_Percent_Markup Company1Managers, 50_Percent_Markup Company2Employees, 60_Percent_Markup Company2Managers, 60_Percent_Markup Now everyone in company 1 gets a 50 percent markup price, but still only has rights as laid out by whichever Employees/Managers group they belong to. Company 2 is the same but with the 60 percent markup prices. This was probably a waste of time, but there you go.
  2. I emailed this to support, but thought I would post here too just in case. I have a question regarding Dynamic Pricing. I could not find the answer in the iForms Tutorial pdf file. What is the best way to handle having two user groups get the same prices without having duplicate rows (with different context ids) in the dynamic price spreadsheet? Is it possible to assign two groups the same user context ID? Is it possible to assign two user context IDs to a record within the dynamic price spreadsheet? Scenario is that I have two groups that I want to have one price, then I am going to create a catch-all context ID for everyone else so they get a different price. I would prefer to have only two sets of prices within the dynamic pricing spreadsheet.
  3. Well, I guess I would counter that the ability to save and recall output settings for manual output could hardly be considered automation, but if that's the answer, then that's the answer.
  4. It is a desktop template. Is it possible to switch a config file on the desktop version? I have no idea how you would do that.
  5. We have a daily job that we need to compose two different ways. We need to compose one pdf that contains all of the records in a single file, then compose the same template with individual pdfs for each record named with a variable field. We have sorted out how to do everything we need to do, but it is a labor intensive process to set it up to compose one way, then switch all of the settings and compose it a second time. Changing the settings every day opens us up to user error. Is there a way to save Compose Template settings and load them so we don't have to manually change all of the settings? Is there a better way to approach this that I haven't thought of? I don't want to have two separate templates and have to worry about keeping them both up to date. Thanks...
  6. As usually seems to happen when I post here, I figured this out on my own. In case anyone cares, I created a rule that calls in: UntaggedDataField("FNAME") That allowed me to place the name without the formatting that is being placed by the MarcomCentral store.
  7. I am working on a variable postcard for a Marcom store. I want to give the user the ability to change the font in the variable section. The problem I am running into is that the variable section will contain the first name of the postcard recipient. That same variable first name is also on the mail panel on the back side of the postcard. I only have the first name field in the data once. How can I set this up so the user can change the font for the first name on the front of the card without changing the font on the back side mail panel? It seems like the font change format within Marcom can only be applied to a field. Is there a way to create a rule that basically duplicates the data from one field into another field?
  8. I have two users in one of my stores that are set up as Senior Purchasers. As long as they are Senior Purchasers, I am unable to assign Image Attributes to them. Under Image Attributes/User Assignments I click on "View All Unassigned Users". Those two users do not show up in the list. If I go to their user account and change them to a Purchaser, I can go back to "View All Unassigned Users" and they DO show up in the list. I can then assign them an Image Attribute. If I switch them back to a Senior Purchaser they maintain that image attribute and show up in the list when I click "Show All Assigned Users". Took a while to figure that one out. Curious if this is a feature or a bug.
  9. Thank you! This is a very good idea. I am going to try to implement this. Seems like something PTI's support should have thought of when I asked them.
  10. Is it possible to set up pick items so the customer pays at the time of restock and then doesn't pay when purchasing the items in the store? We have an item that we will be outsourcing. Say we want the customer to pay when we have the 500 items produced, but then not pay when they come into the store to order 50 of them. When inventory reaches the point where we need to reorder from our supplier, they would then be charged for the next 500.
  11. Well that was easy. Thanks, don't know why that didn't dawn on me.
  12. Is it possible to set a max quantity of one for a product? If I set fill in pricing at 1, then set max quantity to 0, it doesn't work. If I set fill in to 1 and max quantity to 1, then it allows them to purchase 2. I saw in the help about setting the default quantity to 1 then enable "hide quantity", that works, but you can still edit the quantity in the cart, which defeats the purpose. If I have them skip the cart after adding the item, they can still click the cart button and edit the quantity. Is there a way to set this up so they can really only buy one item?
  13. Thanks for the reply. I think we will end up setting up the document so they manually enter the info into the versioned fields. Seems like adding a special user might be more than we want to deal with.
  14. I have a client who wants to be able to create a team document to hand out to their customers. Say a team leader logs into the store and populates the first section of the document with his contact information. He would then populate the other four sections of the document with the contact information of four other employees within the company. These other four employees have accounts in the Marcom site with contact information filled out. So is it possible for one user to populate fields with the contact information of another user within the store?
