Order Form Generator

This folder contains the raw data used to generate the order form.

Each edit box below represents a group of 'items' on the order form. All items in a group must be of the same 'type', either:

  1. General Items 
  2. Individual Cuts 

Enter one item per line.
Each line's data elements must be separated by semicolons.

General Items - must have 1 [or 2] data elements, and
Individual Cuts - must have 3 [or 4] data elements, as indicated.


For more detailed information see the bottom of this page.

Product Name & Description [ ; n/a ]
Product Name & Description [ ; n/a ]
Product Name & Description [ ; n/a ]
Cut Name ; price/units ; average Kgs per package [ ; n/a ]
Cut Name ; price/units ; average Kgs per package [ ; n/a ]
Cut Name ; price/units ; average Kgs per package [ ; n/a ]

Instructions:

The following indicates the data elements expected on each line, in the order they must appear on the line.
The 'n/a' is optional, should always be last on the line and should ONLY be present if this item is NOT currently available.

General Items - always have 1 (or 2) data elements:

Product Name
; n/a

Individual Cuts - always have 3 (or 4) data elements:

Cut Name
; price / units
; avg pkg (Kgs)
; n/a

Notes:

  • "price / units" is actually 2 data elements separated by '/'. 
    • "price" can have more than 2 decimal places
    • "units" must be either 'Kg' or '100g' (without the quotes)
  • "avg pkg" is always in Kgs and allows about 4 decimal places
  • leading & trailing whitespace (per data element) is trimmed off when displayed on the order-form
    you may want to space the raw data elements apart for easier reading
  • a line with just a dash '-' will display a subsection separator (thin horizontal line)
  • if the n/a is not present its leading semicolon is optional (can be missing)
  • if the ;n/a is present the item's Qty box will be replaced with 'n/a' text.
  • errors in the raw data can cause the order form to not display - always check the form after editing data.

How to add another product group:

This folder contains "Lines Field" objects that appear (above) as edit boxes. To add another group (edit box) just add a new "Lines Field" via the 'add item' pulldown menu.

Each object's order in this folder (contents tab) determines the order that its group is displayed on the order-form (as well as here).   Items in a group are displayed in the same order as they occur in the lines field box.

The entire order-form table can be managed from here by adding/deleting/reordering and editing this data.
