Charge an order to an account

At some point during your order workflow, you need to charge the job to an account. In the default workflow, the order must be charged to an account when it is moved to the Ready to Print status or the Completed status. However, your organization might have customized the workflow so this could happen at any stage (except the first status - New).

To charge an order to an account:

1. Log in to the Job Ticketing Operator interface.

2. Move an order to a status requiring charging (for example, Ready to Print).

   A window is displayed prompting you to enter the Cost.

   

3. In Cost, enter the cost for the order.

   TIP

   The cost should have been calculated, quoted via a comment, and approved by the customer in a previous status, such as Pending response.

4. Click Charge Account.

   The cost is charged to the customer’s Job Ticketing personal account.

   TIP

   If the account does not have sufficient funds, an error message is displayed on the screen.

   

   You should add a comment to the order to let the customer know that the order that their order cannot be processed until the account is topped up.
