Printavo’s Pricing Matris & API Is Here

It’s an exciting day because we just pushed live a few new updates to Printavo:

  1. You can now assign tasks to users
  2. Screen printing pricing matrix.  Under My Account > Pricing Matrix, you can edit & customize your matrix.  By default we’ve loaded Sanmar’s updated individual, dozen & case pricing.  You can import your own full catalog now here.
  3. We now are a Zapier.com partner.  To get invited to our Zapier app, click here.  Zapier is an app that lets you automate inputting and getting data from Printavo to other apps on the web.  Ex. “automatically export all customers to Mailchimp”, “add orders to my Google Calendar” and more.
  4. We have an API that you can use to build custom functionality on top of Printavo.  For the developers out there, here’s our documentation.  Your API key is in My Account.

Hopefully, everyone is having a great New Year thus far. View past Printavo updates and a product video demo.

More Additions

Along with hiring a few more folks to our staff, you can now:

– Print Packing Slips.  This is essentially a view of your work order without production notes, attachments or terms & conditions

– Payment Confirmation Emails.   On a successful payment using one of our payment processor options (Stripe, Authorize.Net or Paypal) you will receive an email from Printavo

As usual, big plans coming up with our new staff on board, stay tuned.

New Features for Printavo

It’s been a while since we updated the blog but here are a few new features that have been released over the past few months:

Better User Permissions.  Allow more customization for each user on your account. Remember, unlimited users for each account and everyone can be logged in at the same time.

Invoice History.  View everything that has changed with an invoice including status changes, emails sent to customers, payments collected and more.

Printavo has been full upgraded once again! (Many New Features)

printavo-v5

Printavo has been an incredible journey. We started a few years ago with a vision to the best, simplest tool to manage your screen-printing shop. Now not only do screen-printers use our software, but so do embroiders and sign manufacturers. I’m constantly humbled but how many shops truly find Printavo useful and continue to not only use it but recommend it.

After much feedback, we have made a large update to Printavo that helps it become an even better tool for your shop.

  1. You can use Authorize.Net to accept payments as well as PayPal
  2. Download all Printavo to QuickBooks automatically every night (QuickBooks Online and PC-based QuickBooks supported)
  3. Global list of 70,000 products from ShirtSpace to use to create quotes and invoices quickly
  4. Create tasks on invoices that have due dates or just for the shop in general to help with project management

 

We’ve also made many tweaks to the system that shop owners have requested over the last few weeks. Some of which are:

  1. Taxable/Untaxable line items
  2. Add dates to transactions
  3. Shipping & Billing address for customers
  4. All transactions for a specific invoice are shown on that invoice
  5. Even faster system
