    Organising orders

    Hi Everyone,

    My phone case orders are slowly starting to increase and was wondering how everyone organsises there orders from taking the order all the way to shipping the order if that makes any sense?

    Example: what image belongs to which order etc do you use order numbers or just go back to find out whos image it was?

    Thanks

    Are these personalised cases? Where are your orders coming from? You could rename the image file with the customer's eBay username for example or the Amazon order number.

    You could transfer those images to a new folder on your desktop and then right click, Sort by/ date modified. That should group the images in order of receipt.

    I have a very simple process for all my orders in that every invoice is given a particular format of [invoice number]_[customer name]_[product]_[source].xar (yeah, I do all my invoicing in Xara!). So I could end up with 03529_Davey_Jones_(WH_T_AMAZON).xar and that way I know immediately who placed the order, what it's for (white t-shirt) and where the order came from.

    Once I've produced all the artwork, whether it's vinyl, dye sub for t-shirt, phone case, mug or whatever, I just refer to the invoices to see who ordered what and that's it. If it turns out that someone has ordered a medium t-shirt and someone else has ordered an XXXL of the same design, I may include the invoice number on the vinyl cut so I know which one gets which cut but it's usually pretty obvious because of the size. Really, if the invoice is clearly written, you should be able to see which artwork corresponds to it without any issues.
