Search wholesale inventories live inside quotes, connect custom rep credentials, and dispatch blind work orders directly to sub-contract decorators.
1. Live Catalog Search (PromoStandards)
Connect directly to SanMar, S&S Activewear, and supplier wholesale inventories. Pull full details, active garment colorways, size matrices, and wholesale pricing. Integrates directly inside the Quote Builder, Shop Inventory, and Store Products.
- Search suppliers live by keywords or style number
- Live product detail fetches (colors, size grids)
- Quick local My Products fallback for custom items
2. Connected vs. Enabled Badging States
Choose your pricing path. Check your cards in the Suppliers dashboard. Toggling blue "Enabled" leverages PrintLifes platform pricing instantly with zero credentials. Upgrading to green "Connected" syncs your PromoStandards credentials for custom negotiated rates.
- Enabled (blue) matches default platform pricing
- Connected (green) unlocks negotiated wholesale rates
- Easy connection testing and credentials updates
3. Procurement OS & One-Click Ordering
Automate garment sourcing. When styles are added to active quotes, invoices, or online store campaigns, they flow directly into a global Procurement Deficit Aggregator. The system computes exact shortages against your current inventory. Click once to compile and transmit Purchase Orders directly to your suppliers.
- Deficit mapping tracks needed count (invoiced - ordered)
- Checks shop inventory to prevent double-ordering
- One-click PO generation and automated API transmission
As products are added to active invoices or store campaigns, the Deficit Map computes raw stock shortages instantly. One click compiles demand into bulk Purchase Orders.
4. Blind Vendor & Contractor Dispatches
Outsource decorating safely. Add contractors under Staff/Vendors and click dispatch inside any quote. Recipient shipping data resolves automatically from customer CRM logs, while financial rates, markups, and totals are strictly hidden.
- Hides financial values, unit costs, and profit percentages
- Optional blind-shipping recipient address toggles
- Generates contractor portals with completion logs
5. Print-Optimized Job Travelers
Keep your production floor organized. Our dispatched digital traveler sheets collapse into printer-friendly horizontal paper templates. Page-break CSS configurations start each project on a fresh page to prevent column squishing.
- Printer-friendly horizontal header summaries
- Side-by-side specs grids (mockup left, details right)
- Page-break CSS settings to prevent paper overlaps
