2.3.7 Manage production settings
The Production Settings lets you change default values for production specific parameters on document level.
The document production settings are related to the Shipping date calendar in the ordering process. To modify
the Settings in the Production section:
1. Click Publication Types in the Menu bar. The Publication Types overview page is shown.
2. Select a publication type by clicking its name
3. Click Documents in the side menu.
4. Select a PDF document from the overview, the Documents Summary page is shown.
5. Click Settings in the Production section from the side menu.
6. Click Edit. The following screen appears:
On the production settings page from a document the documents’ production parameters can be modified
7. The document production settings page contains the following sections:
▪ Use System Defaults: The Use system default checkbox is on by default, which causes the
remaining options of this section to be disabled. If selected the system default values are used.
▪ Standard Production Time: In the Standard production time pull-down-menu the number of
days to produce documents can be defined. The values ranges from 0 to 15. The standard
production time is used to calculate the first possible shipping date during the ordering process.
The end user has the option to select a different date (via a calendar) but cannot select any of the
data marked as standard production time. The values specified in this section are automatically
applied to new templates.
▪ Rush Order Production Time: The Rush order production time pull-down-menu represents the
time frame to produce the document measured in days for rush orders. The end user will be able
to select a date between the Standard Production Time and Rush Order Production Time. If such a
date is selected as the shipping date the rush rate of the document is added to the price
calculation (surcharge) and the order is marked as a rush order.
If the value is set to same value as the Standard Production Time, customers cannot request a
rush order.
▪ Include Today In Production Time: When checked, this option determines if the current date is
counted as a production day for orders placed before the time specified in the orders placed before
pull-down-menu.
▪ Orders Placed Before: The Orders placed before option defines the time slot for the Include
today for production option. If an order is placed before the stated time and the Include Today In
Production Time option is selected, the current day is counted as production day. The default value
of the Orders placed before pull-down-menu is 13:00 hours.
When no Standard production time is specified and the Include today in production time checkbox is
cheked it is possible for customers to order print jobs for the same day (when ordered before the
specified Orders placed before time).
