Excerpt

Here's where I give you an example / use case for flyer creator. Need to double check this again. Customers like Kincrome might want to allow their customers (say Bunnings) to create flyers containting Kincrome products? OUR customer allows THEIR customer (who is an onseller/distributor) to create a flyer... I believe.

This guide will step you through the process of creating quick and easy flyers via the CMS.

3. Customise Options

There are several ways you can customise the Flyer Creator.  

...

  1. Show Address Entry - this allows your customers to override the address information that gets printed on the flyer header. 
     
  2. Profit Calculation - set the default method for pricing calculation, either Markup or Margin. 
     

    Tip
    titleMargin vs Markup - What's the Difference?


    Margin - the value of sales less the cost of goods. Example: If you bought goods for $70 and then onsold them for $100, you'd make 30% margin.

    Markup - the amount added to the cost price in order to arrive at the sale price. Example: If you bought goods for $70 and then marked them up by 30%, you'd sell them for $91. If you wanted to sell the goods for $100, you'd need a 42.9% markup.

  3. Labels - change the wording for field labels and prompts as you see fit.
