Freight on quote letter setup

Freight on quote letter setup

The following changes have been made to handle showing of freight prices for selected quantities on the quote letter, when new freight has been turned on.

Some new fields have been added to the quote letter object that can now be used

SubTotalPriceForSelectedQuantities_Formatted
Sub total for all the selected quantities, including sales items

TotalPriceForSelectedQuantities_Formatted
Total price for all the selected quantities, including sales items

ShowPricesForSelectedQuantities
This is set to true when at least one quantity on a product is selected OR a sales item exists on the quote. Use to show the selected items totals at the bottoms along with freight. (Useful for situations where no quantity is selected for products)

HighlightSelectedQuantities
This is set to true when ShowPricesForSelectedQuantities is true, AND a product with more than one quantity exists on the quote. When it’s true, its used to add highlighting to the selected quantities, and shows the message “Based on selected items”

 

Here is an example of html you can add to the bottom of the body in the template

{{#ShowPricesForSelectedQuantities}}
<div style="position:relative;">
            <div class="total-prices-container">
                        <table class="total-prices">
                                     <tr>
                                                  <th>Subtotal:</th>
                                                  <td>{{SubTotalPriceForSelectedQuantities_Formatted}}</td>
                                     </tr>
                                     <tr>
                                                  <th>Freight:</th>
                                                  <td>{{QuoteFreightPrice_Formatted}}</td>
                                     </tr>
                                     <tr>
                                                  <th>GST:</th>
                                                  <td>{{TotalGSTForSelectedQuantities_Formatted}}</td>
                                     </tr>
                                     <tr>
                                                  <th>Total:</th>
                                                  <td>{{TotalPriceForSelectedQuantities_Formatted}}</td>
                                     </tr>
                        </table>
            </div>
            <div class="clear"></div>
            <div class="based-on-selected-text">based on selected items</div>
</div>
{{/ShowPricesForSelectedQuantities}}

 

 

For the “HighlightSelectedQuantities” to take effect, please wrap the entire body in a div which looks at that setting, and adds the class “allow-quantity-highlight”

<div class="{{#HighlightSelectedQuantities}}allow-quantity-highlight{{/HighlightSelectedQuantities}}">


Here is an example of CSS you can add to the StyleSheet to style the totals, and also highlight selected quantity rows. (Note: To get rows to highlight, please add the “selected-quantity” class to “tr” of quantities using <tr class="{{#IsSelected}}selected-quantity{{/IsSelected}}" >

.allow-quantity-highlight .selected-quantity {
            background-color: #ddd;
}
 
.allow-quantity-highlight .selected-quantity td {
            background-color: #ddd;
            outline: 2px solid #ddd;
}
 
.total-prices {
            width: 900px!important;
}
 
.total-prices th {
            font-weight: bold;
            text-align: left;
            width: 400px;
}
 
.total-prices th,
.total-prices td {
            padding-top: 15px;
            padding-bottom: 15px;
}
 
.total-prices-container {
            border: 8px solid #bfbfbf;
            padding: 15px;
            float: left;
            padding: 65px;
            margin-top: 45px;
}
 
.based-on-selected-text {
            position: absolute;
            text-align: Center;
            padding: 25px;
            padding-left: 35px;
            padding-right: 35px;
            background-color: white;
            bottom: -42px;
            left: 145px;
            color: #aaa;
            display: block;
            font-size: 62px;
            display: none;
            font-weight: bold;
}
 
.allow-quantity-highlight .based-on-selected-text {
            display: block;
}

 

 

Example quote letter for 1 product with multiple quantities (With one quantity selected)


Example of quote letter with only 1 quantity on product (Based on selected and highlighting removed)

 

Example of quote letter where no quantities have been selected (Quantity totals hidden).

Note: You can unselect all quantities by clicking the “x” on the checkout screen next to the product, and again to re-select it. (At that point all quantities will be unselected)
