The express order module allows you to display an express
order form within Miva Merchant. This is useful for your customers who
routinely order from a printed catalog with SKU numbers
for each unique product or they order the same thing
frequently and have the codes written down or memorized.
If they know the product codes, they simply enter them
and submit. This saves time since they do not have to do
time consuming searches or browse categories and products
looking for the items they want to order. It cannot be
used for products which have variable attributes. The button
to open the form can be placed in the headers or footers of
any of the screens. It can also be placed in the category
column. The module can be used with the OpenUI or MMUI user
interfaces.
In the compiled version for Merchant 4.14 or newer is the
automatic re-display of the express order input form if all
of the entries are filled in on the previous submission. The
express order screen will continue to re-display as long as
all inputs are used and there are no errors in the product
codes submitted. The button to open the Express Order screen
can be positioned at just about any screen using the OpenUI Tokens if you are using the OpenUI.
The store owner can define how many product entry inputs display
on each page. Further, the store owner can use either the
default display (with configured number of entries), or he/she
can use the template Express Order screen. The template
allows the store owner to move objects around and personalize
the look of the Express Order screen. The error messages are configurable.
