Add a Brand

To add a new brand:

  1. You can create a new brand from the "Create New" drop down from the main menu or by going into Brands > Selecting the "Add Brand" button

  2. Code - Brand code must be 4 characters or less

  3. Division - The divisions can be built in Company Settings >Division

  4. Customer Groups - Choose a customer group that the brand would be in (eg; Men's, Women's, Accessories). Customer groups are a great way to separate customers. These tags are useful to control what brands the customer can view inside the online showroom. The customer groups can be built in Company Settings >Customer Group. Click here for more information on Customer Groups.

  5. Brand Managers - Add the assigned user(s) to the brand, by choosing one of the user names from the drop down list. To set up the brand manager to receive online order notifications, you can learn more here.

  6. Default Commission Rate - Set the default commission rate. This can be overridden by the user's commission rate set if it is set under their user settings.

  7. Logo - Add a .jpg, .png, or .gif of the brand's logo. Brands must be a part of at least one customer group and have a logo uploaded in order to be displayed in the Online Showroom. If you can not create a PO PDF, it may be because the logo is not in an acceptable file format.

  8. Description - The description will be visible in the Online Showroom

  9. Terms of sales - If your terms of sales differs depending on the brand, you can add terms of sales to each brand. When you create a Purchase Order, your terms of sales will automatically appear based on the brand chosen. To add terms of sales to a brand

  10. Select "Save Changes" button to save the new brand
