00:00:07:10 - 00:00:07:17
In this
00:00:07:17 - 00:00:10:21
tutorial, we'll take a look
at an example of an Infigo product
00:00:10:21 - 00:00:14:01
which has been configured
utilizing the Connect printIQ
00:00:14:02 - 00:00:17:02
custom quoting capability is.
00:00:17:13 - 00:00:19:22
We will see that
the product has several attributes
00:00:19:22 - 00:00:24:09
configured, which in turn have slightly
altered mappings to attributes
00:00:24:09 - 00:00:27:09
and operations
in the linked printIQ system.
00:00:28:09 - 00:00:31:18
This ensures that the correct quote
is returned from printIQ
00:00:31:19 - 00:00:34:18
when requested from Infigo,
00:00:34:18 - 00:00:37:10
as the chosen specifications
of the product have been utilized
00:00:37:10 - 00:00:40:10
to actually create the quote.
00:00:41:05 - 00:00:43:29
So let's start off
with looking at our product.
00:00:43:29 - 00:00:47:21
So our product is a simple multi-part
product within Infigo
00:00:48:02 - 00:00:51:06
several attributes have been created
and assigned to the product,
00:00:51:12 - 00:00:55:23
giving the end user the ability to decide
between a few different sizes,
00:00:56:20 - 00:01:00:04
a few different materials,
and some embellishments.
00:01:03:17 - 00:01:06:20
Once these selections have been made
and a quantity has been input.
00:01:06:20 - 00:01:08:00
Request price can be used
00:01:08:00 - 00:01:11:27
to directly request the price
for this specific product configuration
00:01:12:05 - 00:01:15:05
from the Linked printIQ system.
00:01:19:12 - 00:01:22:20
If successful, the returned price
will be displayed to the end user.
00:01:22:20 - 00:01:25:27
So first of all, let's navigate
to the admin side of this product
00:01:25:27 - 00:01:28:27
and navigate to our product
variant settings.
00:01:37:02 - 00:01:37:12
From here
00:01:37:12 - 00:01:40:12
I'm going to click on Connect Link.
00:01:42:17 - 00:01:44:13
So this is where I will define the base
00:01:44:13 - 00:01:48:26
specification of the products
mapping to our printIQ system.
00:01:49:15 - 00:01:53:01
We can then override parts
of this specification as necessary
00:01:53:07 - 00:01:57:04
for the different attribute
values, such as size or material,
00:01:57:11 - 00:02:00:11
to ensure
that we're retrieving a correct quote.
00:02:03:03 - 00:02:04:06
You'll see that once we clicked
00:02:04:06 - 00:02:08:00
connect link, a pop up appeared,
allowing us to input these mappings.
00:02:14:19 - 00:02:15:19
In this example that we
00:02:15:19 - 00:02:18:19
can see a range of mappings
have already been carried out.
00:02:18:20 - 00:02:22:15
This includes things such as stock
selection, coloring,
00:02:23:18 - 00:02:25:18
poll type,
00:02:25:18 - 00:02:28:18
and so on.
00:02:30:23 - 00:02:32:29
Next we'll take a look
at how the specification
00:02:32:29 - 00:02:36:03
varies for the different values
of our attributes.
00:02:36:09 - 00:02:39:09
So this is things such as the size
or materials.
00:02:39:18 - 00:02:42:05
So I'm actually going to navigate
back to my product variant.
00:02:42:05 - 00:02:45:05
But this time I'm going to click on edit.
00:02:46:03 - 00:02:47:05
From here I'm going to navigate
00:02:47:05 - 00:02:50:12
to attributes and the attributes tab.
00:02:50:12 - 00:02:52:03
And here we can see the attributes
00:02:52:03 - 00:02:55:03
that have been assigned
to this particular product.
00:02:56:11 - 00:02:59:24
This functionality does also work
with attribute combinations.
00:02:59:24 - 00:03:02:24
However they're not set up
on this particular example.
00:03:08:20 - 00:03:10:15
So we'll begin
00:03:10:15 - 00:03:13:24
by taking a look at our size
attribute options.
00:03:14:16 - 00:03:17:14
So in addition to three fixed sizes
00:03:17:14 - 00:03:20:14
this product also contains a custom option
00:03:20:25 - 00:03:24:27
which in turn reveals two additional
length and width attributes.
00:03:29:21 - 00:03:30:05
Going back
00:03:30:05 - 00:03:33:06
to the product's admin area,
I'm going to navigate to the attribute
00:03:33:06 - 00:03:37:06
values of that particular attribute,
a size
00:03:38:11 - 00:03:40:08
and edit values.
00:03:40:08 - 00:03:43:14
You'll see that each of the options
we have within that attribute
00:03:43:24 - 00:03:46:28
has their own connecting option,
which I can select.
00:03:50:16 - 00:03:53:16
So I've selected one of the fixed size
options.
00:03:54:00 - 00:03:57:00
That's again opened up our pop up window.
00:03:59:08 - 00:04:00:25
And we can see if I scroll down that
00:04:00:25 - 00:04:04:09
the majority of options are using
the inherited option.
00:04:04:29 - 00:04:08:08
This is meaning that their value is taken
from the higher level
00:04:08:08 - 00:04:11:08
specification that we saw earlier.
00:04:11:09 - 00:04:13:25
Additional information
on this inherited option
00:04:13:25 - 00:04:16:25
can be found in the notes
at the top of the screen.
00:04:18:15 - 00:04:20:21
However,
we can see in this particular example
00:04:20:21 - 00:04:25:22
that the finished size has been mapped
to a different specific value.
00:04:26:09 - 00:04:30:11
This will ensure that the correct product
specifications are used to quote.
00:04:30:11 - 00:04:33:23
If this value is selected
within the size attribute
00:04:33:27 - 00:04:36:24
by our end user on our Infigo product.
00:04:40:06 - 00:04:40:18
Next, we'll
00:04:40:18 - 00:04:43:18
take a look at the custom size option.
00:04:44:12 - 00:04:45:18
This one slightly difference.
00:04:45:18 - 00:04:49:08
Just as a reminder, this is where we get
those two additional attributes appearing
00:04:49:20 - 00:04:52:20
or width and length.
00:04:55:18 - 00:04:57:20
We can see this time
that our finished size
00:04:57:20 - 00:05:00:20
is not being amended
from the base specification,
00:05:00:20 - 00:05:01:26
and this is because we wish
00:05:01:26 - 00:05:06:04
for the specification to now be altered
by those two additional attributes
00:05:06:15 - 00:05:08:26
that have been become available
to our end users.
00:05:08:26 - 00:05:11:15
When custom is selected.
00:05:11:15 - 00:05:14:22
So the custom option is purely
being used to control those length
00:05:14:22 - 00:05:16:07
and width attributes.
00:05:16:07 - 00:05:18:24
It's the length and width
attributes themselves
00:05:18:24 - 00:05:21:22
that are going to modify the specification
and the mapping.
00:05:21:22 - 00:05:23:18
To printIQ.
00:05:23:18 - 00:05:26:18
If I navigate back to those
00:05:26:18 - 00:05:28:10
to my attributes,
00:05:28:10 - 00:05:30:25
I can see my length
and width width attributes here.
00:05:32:17 - 00:05:32:26
Go to
00:05:32:26 - 00:05:36:01
the connect link options
and you can see here.
00:05:36:01 - 00:05:39:03
Once again
that whilst most of the options are using
00:05:39:03 - 00:05:42:17
the inherited values
from the higher level specification.
00:05:43:05 - 00:05:47:24
We are instead
using a custom finishing size,
00:05:48:14 - 00:05:51:21
and then that custom finishing size
reveals two additional options
00:05:52:10 - 00:05:54:21
for the depth,
which is the one that we've chosen.
00:05:54:21 - 00:05:57:09
We're using the actual attribute value.
00:05:57:09 - 00:06:00:27
So whatever the customer has
actually typed within the attribute box.
00:06:00:27 - 00:06:03:27
Next, we'll take a look
at the material selection.
00:06:04:19 - 00:06:09:01
This again is giving us the option
to select between four static values.
00:06:09:01 - 00:06:12:01
So again it's quite easy to configure.
00:06:14:19 - 00:06:15:17
Going back to our products
00:06:15:17 - 00:06:18:17
admin area I'm going to go to the relevant
00:06:19:13 - 00:06:22:13
attribute and then go and edit values.
00:06:23:02 - 00:06:26:03
Once again each one of these options
has a connect link.
00:06:26:13 - 00:06:29:29
And as we saw with the sizing
most of these options are going
00:06:29:29 - 00:06:31:22
to still be using inherit.
00:06:31:22 - 00:06:34:14
So we're still going to use the base
specification.
00:06:34:14 - 00:06:38:16
However we can see in this case
that the selection of this particular
00:06:38:16 - 00:06:42:23
attribute value will result
in a particular selection of stock.
00:06:50:12 - 00:06:53:01
And then finally
we'll take a look at our embellishments.
00:06:53:01 - 00:06:56:09
So whilst this is visually different
on our actual product,
00:06:56:19 - 00:07:00:04
our embellishment attributes
is still working in a very similar way.
00:07:00:16 - 00:07:01:18
So what we have here
00:07:01:18 - 00:07:05:12
is three static values
that we can choose between and based on.
00:07:05:12 - 00:07:09:10
The static value we select
is going to modify the specification ever
00:07:09:10 - 00:07:12:10
so slightly to printIQ.
00:07:13:27 - 00:07:14:28
So same process I'm
00:07:14:28 - 00:07:17:28
going to go to my attributes.
00:07:18:13 - 00:07:21:13
Go to embellishments
which is the relevant attribute.
00:07:22:01 - 00:07:24:04
And go on the connect link option
00:07:24:04 - 00:07:27:04
for one of those attribute values.
00:07:31:16 - 00:07:32:01
Once again
00:07:32:01 - 00:07:35:01
we can see that most are inherited.
00:07:37:26 - 00:07:40:14
However, in this example
we can see that an additional section
00:07:40:14 - 00:07:44:03
operation has been specified to map
the embossing. Now.
00:07:46:05 - 00:07:48:25
The emboss
block value that's been specified here
00:07:50:06 - 00:07:51:25
is again drawn from the
00:07:51:25 - 00:07:55:16
printIQ instance
that links it to this storefront.
00:07:55:26 - 00:07:58:26
So it's not actually something
that we've got specified within Infigo.
00:07:58:28 - 00:08:02:20
It is just a mapping that we're getting
from the linked printIQ instance.
00:08:02:20 - 00:08:04:10
And that is basically it.
00:08:04:10 - 00:08:08:09
So that's a simple example
of mapping a product
00:08:08:18 - 00:08:11:18
between Infigo and printIQ.
00:08:11:25 - 00:08:14:28
Using the custom quoting functionality,
00:08:15:16 - 00:08:17:15
you can see that
it is fairly simple to set up.
00:08:17:15 - 00:08:20:21
There's just a little bit of legwork
to make sure that based on the selections
00:08:20:21 - 00:08:25:10
that we've made on our Infigo product
landing page, we get the necessary
00:08:25:10 - 00:08:29:24
feedback and correct quotations
from our printIQ system.
