When
you require more than on supplier to produce
the job on behalf of your customer Optima becomes
a unique tool. Facilities ensure:
• |
Single
key depression to browse and enter all attached
'Sub-Jobs' |
• |
View
charges from all 'Sub-Jobs' from the 'Master
Job' |
|
Often
you will need one supplier to carry out the design
and artwork whilst another will print the job, sometimes
your own design department will act as the second
supplier. This is such a simple example that it would
not demonstrate the powerful features of Optima. Below
is shown a more complex example to enable you to sense
the true power of our 'Multiple Supplier' capabilities.
Imagine
a simple Direct Mail example as follows:
A
Printed letterhead with an attached Plastic Card
which must be Personalised and Mailed.
We
will assume that 4 Suppliers are required for the
task i.e. to carry out:
• |
Supplier
1 Print Letterhead |
• |
Supplier
2 Produce Plastic Card |
• |
Supplier
3 Attach the Letterhead and Personalise |
• |
Supplier
4 Insert into Envelope and Mail |
|
Master
Job Showing 'Sub-Job' charges and pop-up window
|
• |
From
the pop-up window you can easily enter attached
'Sub-Jobs' |
• |
Each
'Sub-Job' is linked via same job number
and is appended to by a 2 digit suffix |
• |
Each
'Sub-Job' is for all intense and purposes
a separate job - note different quantities |
• |
Each
'Sub-Job' may have its own schedule, proofing
and supplier chase facilities |
• |
Your
Selling Price may be totally independent
of the Supplier Costs |
