Quick Start Guide for Accounts, Doctors, Products and Pricing

Quick Start Guide for Accounts, Doctors, Products and Pricing

This Quick Start Guide will go over the highlights of adding an account, doctor, products and price lists. 


Products and Price Lists
The quickest way to add a product and price list is with our Product_PriceList_Import spreadsheet that is attached to this guide. This spreadsheet will allow you to add multiple products and create multiple pricelists in one simple import. Below is a screenshot of the import template with example data.


Below is a description of each field:

Product Name: The searchable name for each product, and how it will display on the order.
Description: The description of the product.
PriceListname: The name of the pricelist the product will be on.
To create multiple pricelists, the product must be listed for each pricelist. In the example above, there is an In House pricelist and External pricelist. Each product is listed twice to create the separate pricelist. If a product should not be on every pricelist, there is no need to create a row for it. It will still add the product in the system and set the price as No Price Set.
Price: The default price for the product on the previously specified pricelist.
IsZeroPriced: If the product should be a No Charge Item, set this field as 1 for True. If this product has a charge, set this field as 0 for False.
IsVariablePriced: If set to 1 for True, this will allow the product price to be changed per order. The default price will appear on the order, but can be changed if needed. If set to 0 for False, the price will be locked on the order and cannot be changed on an individual order.
UnitValue: This is how many units 1 completed product creates. Most will be 1, but sometimes a combo product can be more units. For example, an Upper and Lower product may be counted as 2 units.
UseQuantityAsUnitCount: This will allow the quantity set on the order to define the unit count. If the order is for 2 Zirconia Crowns, this would make the unit count 2 if set to True. If set to False, it would keep the unit count as 1 or whatever the default unit quantity is set to.
CanDiscount: If set to 1 for True, this will allow the product to be discounted. If set to 0 for False, this will lock the discount field for that product on an order.
ProductTypeName: This will set the Product Type and create the product type list for future products added.
DepartmentName: This will set the Department for the product and create the department list for future products added.
AlphaCode: This is a code to search for the products with an abbreviation or a product code.
InvoiceNote: This is a note that can be included on invoices for the product when ordered. It is usually a warranty or information for the client to keep on record for the product.
