About this course

This course contains two recorded sessions on running a printing and advertising company in Daftra: a detailed session through the setup and operations, and a shorter summary of the main capabilities.

You will see branches, treasuries, payment methods, employees and warehouses being set up; suppliers and customers being added; designs and attachments being archived on each customer's profile; and messages being sent to keep customers informed about their jobs. You will also meet bundled products, which are made from raw materials drawn from the warehouse automatically, and the manufacturing cycle as an alternative to them.

The course then covers quotations, sales invoices and print orders with the profit of each order, and closes with the accounting, manufacturing and inventory reports.

FAQ

What is the difference between a bundled product and the manufacturing cycle?

A bundled product is a finished product whose raw materials are defined when you add it, so their quantities are drawn from the warehouse when it is made or sold, such as business cards that use ink and paper. With the manufacturing cycle, items do not need to be defined as bundled products; they are added as ordinary products.

Can I keep customers' designs in the system?

Yes. Designs, templates or attachments can be archived on the customer's profile and opened at any time.

How do I see the profit of a particular print order?

The print order reports show the total profit or loss of each order, and the workflow reports follow print order profits overall.

What language are the videos in? Is there an English version?

The videos are recorded in Arabic. Every lesson has an English transcript and English captions.
