Select the option ‘MainShowroomFlowScript’

Parameter set
For this workflow, there are some parameters that need to be defined. This can be done by selecting ‘Showroom ThinClient – ParameterSet’.

Number of items in sales unit column name
Define here the column name of the column that stores the number of items in the sales unit, defined on the item master data. By default ‘NumInSale’ is used. If you have a UDF to store this value, you can provide the name of the UDF.

Admin password
Provide here the password that will be used to unlock the administrator functionality in the showroom application. By default the password is ‘produmex’

When an order has been added by the showroom application, an order confirmation can be printed.

First create a new ‘Sales order report (SALO-REP)’ type report on the ‘Reports’ tab page. For more information about the report settings see: 5.1.5. Reports

Then create the print event on the ’Print events’ tab page. Set the report created in the previous step as the ‘Report’. Select the ‘Sales order: sales order added event (600)’ as the ‘Event’.
