đź§© Scenario
You have a single user or client placing orders that should be split by department or cost center in PrintIQ. Instead of creating multiple Infigo logins or separate storefronts, you want to use a single login while still routing data appropriately into PrintIQ for invoicing and reporting.
âś… Solution: Use Checkout Attributes + Additional Reference Mapping
To streamline the workflow:
-
Create a Checkout Attribute
Example: Cost Code
, Department
, Budget Centre
, etc.
-
Add the Attribute to the Checkout Workflow
Ensure the user is prompted during checkout to select the relevant value.
-
Map the Attribute to PrintIQ
-
Navigate to: Infigo Admin > Connect: PrintIQ Plugin > Configure Plugin
-
Use the Additional Reference Fields Mapping section.
-
Use the attribute's internal name, not the display name.
-
Select the appropriate PrintIQ reference field from the dropdown.
-
Result:
-
Orders will be tagged with the selected cost code in PrintIQ.
-
The end user only needs one Infigo login.
-
Reporting and invoicing in PrintIQ will remain cleanly separated.
đź’ˇ Notes
-
This does not merge orders; each reference still creates a separate order in PrintIQ.
-
PrintIQ accounts can remain departmental if needed, but the data routing can now be based on the attribute selection.
-
You can use this approach for any structured custom data needed per order (e.g., internal project numbers, job references, etc.).
