Micro*D PreVue

STORIS offers a direct interface with the Micro*D PreVue EasyOrder Configurator, an upholstery draping and configuration program. The interface is sold as a companion application and you must have a license with STORIS to use it. If you have installed the EasyOrder Configurator on your PC, you can access it from within STORIS to retrieve existing PreVue quote documents or create new quotes. You can then import the data directly into STORIS' sales or purchase order modules. To install the EasyOrder Configurator, contact STORIS.

Micro*D creates electronic product catalogs for vendors and distributors, often including a graphic image for each product they catalog. You install a catalog for a vendor or distributor onto your PC, then you use the MicroD Control Settings (Micro*D PreVue ACF ) routine to associate the catalog items with a Vendor in STORIS.

Next, use the Default Path for Micro*D Quote Documents and Images routine to specify a path to where you want to store the quotes you have created with EasyOrder. The default path is C:\STORIS\.

You can then access the EasyOrder Configurator from either the Enter a Sales Order (Sales Order Entry) or Enter a Purchase Order (Purchase Order Entry) routines to help create sales quotes or purchase orders for special-order items in STORIS. You access EasyOrder from the Action button at the Product field of each routine. For instructions on using the EasyOrder Configurator, consult the EasyOrder Help manual.

You cannot edit existing quote documents. If you have a line item selected and you attempt to access EasyOrder, an error message appears. You must delete the old quote and create new one using the EasyOrder Interface.
