The LineItem Admin Page

The LineItem Admin page displays all the LineItems in the store and provides the ability to add/edit/delete items.

General Description of how to operate this Admin pages

 

Optionally lock or restrict this page to only allow changes if the order has a specific storecode: see Application("AdminLockedToStoreCode")

VOIDING A LINEITEM

Setting a lineitem to "zero quantity" is the best practice and the recommended way of voiding an item while leaving the visible audit record for an order intact. While deleting a line has no collateral impact on the DB, it does eliminate visible audit information. It is a good practice to enter a note into the DB describing why this lineitem was voided or changed. These notes are entered using the order notes button on the order admin page.

PRICE CHANGES

Important! If you change a price in this admin page you must reload the order in the order page so that it can re-adjust the order totals (if so desired). Some companies chose to leave the price discrepancy in place to flag the order as price adjusted. The order page will flag all price discrepancies with a warning message. Price adjustments on this page are 100% manual so that you have the ability to override any automated setting such as FFP price adjustments.

FFP AND WYSIWGY

For custom product (FFP) both the WYSIWYG and raw FFP code is displayed. You can edit either field (but not at the same time).

When modifying FFP values you can chose to use the FFP Dialog box or the raw FFP data. Both are displayed simultaneously on the admin page. Use the checkbox labeled "Use above FFP Dialog box for updates" to select which entry method to use. When altering FFP parameters that affect the price of an item on customer order pages, you must manually adjust the item price on this admin page; all automated price adjustments are disabled to allow full pricing latitude.

When using OrderLineItem admin page to directly edit a raw FFP do not insert a brace character directly into an FFP data entry. Instead use the HTML entities: use [ instead of [ and use ] instead of ].
