Print Order Fulfillment

I'm planning to upload my images in print resolution, and want to send print orders to an external print shop for print fulfillment. For any order that contains one or more printable deliverables, is there any way the system can generate a PO or request list to be automatically sent to a second email address that I specify (the printer)?


Thanks!

There is not a way for Sytist to send orders to a lab. I am planning on looking into something like that to see how the labs can receive the orders and files.

Tim, just wondering if this is still on your radar. Would love to be able to have print orders go directly to a commercial printer like Nations Photo Lab or BayPhoto or the like.

Hi Tim,

I saw that Red cart has a Order Fulfillment Script for Photoshop (https://vimeo.com/81443910). Do you have anything like that in Sytist. I would be a huge time save, even better than auto fulfillment to a lab, as you then have to retouch every photo for lab quality and upload large files.
Thank you

Hi!
I wrote in Feature Requests in 2016 my vision of this feature:

Hi, Tim!
It would be great to have a possibility to send print order e-mail to known photo lab, with link to generated zip archive.
1. Client chooses files he wants to print, photo paper type.
2. Chooses photo lab (list from my sytist).
3. Chooses a method of getting photos. (Pick up from photo lab, or from photographer, or sending by mail).
4. Places order, makes payment.
5. Photographer receives order, uploads files to gallery.
6. Photographer clicks the button "send order to photo lab".
a) Sytist generates zip archive with chosen files.
b) Letter with order details and with link to archive goes to e-mail address, associated with photo lab name from the list. Copy of letter goes to photographer's e-mail address. May be also a link to online order, where is photo cropping information.
7. If client chooses "pick up from photo lab" method, in the letter there will be the name of client or person, who will come to photo lab to get photos.
8. If it is possible, with confirmation that photos have been downloaded by photo lab.

There is not an order fulfillment script for Sytist and currently not connected to any labs. I have looked into this and will be looking again at some point.
