BISON RETAIL STORE INTERNAL NOTES:
*** Note: there is a store asset spreadsheet that lists all of the products.
12-19-2025 - folded card with envelope sets are not working. The product types create 2 part estimates. The results in Tharstern are never correct. Part 2 is always NO PRINTING.
What needs to be done before launch:
1. Add category and product images (clear delineation between Color vs Black and White)
2. Add category and product descriptions
3. No customize or "place page" products for now.
4. The calendar product could be a challenge because of the orientation. Solution: for this product only the width and height are swapped and the width is labeled as spine dimension. This actually makes the wrong orientation but that's how it always needs to be for calendars.
Note: we had to give up on Pad and Wire-O for now.
5. Products and categories need to have links to other products and categories where needed, and also links to our website request a quote page where needed.
6. Black only products. We can have separate sets of products where applicable, for example, black only versions of envelopes (which would allow for printing on the Jet). Only envelopes will have black only versions.
7. Quantities: Minimum and maximum to be determined. Need to include these ranges in Javascript.
8. Include template downloads where appropriate (remittance envelopes, pocket folders, mailing templates)
9. Include other helpful downloads and information (Adobe Presets, bleed guidelines)
10. All products must be tested thoroughly to make sure the estimates are correct in Tharstern
11. Product checklist:
- Linked to Tharstern inventory item, which is linked to a product type
- Pricing engine works correctly
- Estimates generated in Tharstern are correct
- Thorough, concise product descriptions with links included as needed
- Informative product images
- You must have either a file upload requirement or eDoc template
12. Make certain the tax settings for the store are correct.
13. Change the inventory items in Tharstern to allow any customer to use them.
