Miva Merchant VendorTrk Professional Fulfillment Module allows you to assign products to specific vendors and to send out email notifications to those vendors when their products are purchased. When used in conjunction with the Quickbooks Batch Export module, Vendor Bills are created durring the import. In addition, this module includes the ability to:
- Optionally, (admin configurable per vendor) separate out all Vendor products to separate 'orders' on Basket screen, invoice screen, also optionally separate tax & shipping calculations.
- MEMO fields to put vendor-specific headers/footers around their 'orders' on the basket screen, invoice screen (i.e. "The following items will be shipped by WidgetWorld, Inc. in Palo Alto, CA:"
- For separated shipping calculations, will (optionally) use the Vendor's zip code to calculate shipping (i.e. UPS)
- Vendor gets sent an e-mail containing his products (as before), plus his specific separated tax/shipping charges.
Full-featured "Membership" module for discounts, purchase awards, availability groups, etc.
Membership features can include:
Assignment to either Price or Availability groups (or both)
Membership Points - Each purchase earns X points per dollar
Point redemption - Y points can be redeemed for a discount
Memberships can be assigned based on:
Total Orders Plateau - after purchasing $X total (also searches past orders to build order history)
Assignment can be restricted to customers within a specific Price or Availability group (or both)
Manually by Store Administrator (regardless of Price or Availability group)
Memberships can have an associated Membership Length (in days) and an Admin-editable expiration date. They can also be infinite memberships.
Possible uses:
Customer Appreciation discounts -- "After purchasing $500 of merchandise in our online store, you become a member of our Gold Level, receiving a 5% discount. When your order totals reach $1000, you become a Platinum member, and receive a 15% discount on all products!!!" (This would be done with Price Group assignment).
Points Discounts -- Set up a Membership with a plateau of 0.01 to give all customers who purchase a membership into your Points system.
Reward your customers, track advertising success, and more! Special promotions can boost sales, improve customer loyalty, and provide feedback from catalogs, mailings, and other advertisement distributions. Expand your Miva Merchant storefront's capabilities with our PromoTrk Fulfillment module, a powerfully configurable promotion solution.
An unlimited number of promotions can be set up with a variety of options. Provide fixed and percentage discounts off either specific products, or the entire order total, or simply offer a free product as the promotion. Limit the promotions to customers who meet certain product purchase requirements, order total minimums, etc.
A few of the many possible set-ups include: Buy 5 or more of a specific product, get one (or a different product) free, Purchase $100 or more and receive 15% off your order total, Buy any 10 items and receive 25% off a particular product line, or $5 off any order.
Unlike coupons or other discounts, these "promotions" consist of unique key codes that the customer can enter during checkout. You specify how many times a key code can be redeemed, as well as an expiration date. You can also configure the complexity of the key code, which is based on the promotion's code followed by a random string. For example, a key code with 5 letters and 1 digit might look like PROMO-DJE9XY. All key codes generated are tested to ensure uniqueness, and are automatically exported to a text file. You may also generate additional key codes for a promotion at any time, setting a new expiration date if necessary.
Mailing out 5,000 catalogs? Simply generate 5,000 unique promotion key codes and provide the file to your printer to be included on the mailing labels -- reward your customers while getting feedback on just how effective that catalog was. Going to a trade show? Put promotional codes on your literature or business cards. An ideal solution for stores looking to enhance their marketing strategy.

This bundle of fulfillment modules gives you an incredible range of powerful features for efficient, customer and store owner friendly order processing.
Miva Merchant fulfillment module which allows you to add hand out License Keys when specified products are purchased. You can either import a list of available keys or you can have the keys Auto-Generated.
This module gives a merchant the ability to track the purchase of products assigned to vendors. The module logs all purchases and sends notification emails to the vendor assigned to the products. In addition, the module is capable of tracking payouts due to vendors and provides for a convenient interface to process payouts and generate "invoices". Use of the payout feature is optional.
Of course there is a little more to it than that and this module provides for a great deal of flexibility:
The format of the email sent to the vendors is completely configurable with the use of tokens to specify the vendor and order information. A default template can be configured for the email and individual vendors can also have a template specifically configured for them.
Similarly, the invoice showing the payout being made to the vendor can be configured with a default template or with a template specific to the particular vendor. Like the email, the invoice template uses tokens to represent information about the vendor (name, code, payout due, total payout paid, date paid, etc.) and the products purchased.
Payouts can be calculated and tracked as a percentage or flat rate (eg. $5/product sold). The percentage can be based on the product's cost, price paid (eg. prices affected by sales), or list price. In addition, the payout calculation can be configured "globally" for the vendor (applies by default to all assigned products) and individual products can also have a specific payout method associated with them (i.e. a vendor can be provided a different payout calculation method for a specific product).
The module's admin interface provides for a simple listing of all payouts due with a link to each vendor's specific payout screen. Payout periods can be specified for each vendor and can be configured in just about time span you would want and can be set to be paid on any particular day of the week, month, year, etc.
With MmVENDOR you can define individual notification for each of your suppliers so that he automatically receives notification about products assotiated with him upon the purchase. Unlimited number of individual notifications may be defined and each vendor receives the notification only if a product associated with him is included. Products not assigned to the respective vendor are being filtered out.
Merchant users and owners often complain about the readability of the notification e-mail. They are not aware of the fact that classical e-mail protocol ( SMTP ) does not have any text formatting features. For these reasons, IT professionals use to set their mail clients to display messages in a fixed width font. That allows seeing formatting of such texts like Miva Merchant notification e-mail, without any hassle.
There is also the possibility to send e-mail messages for example in the HTML format. HTML is supported by all current major mail clients. Among IT professionals, the HTML e-mail is not too popular, because of related security problems in some client versions, because of increasing the transferred data volumes, and maybe because of few other reasons.
However, HTML offers possibilities not available with plain SMTP and the formatting is often requested feature. The way MmVENDOR module implements the HTML format is secure for both sides and the transferred data is only slightly higher than at a plain-text message (in contrary to messages formatted within Outlook or other clients, where the volume may be easily the multiple of the original size).
MmVENDOR allows you to customize the look and feel of the notification message. You can change colors, fonts, sizes, add logos, images, formatted text and anything else you may need.
Feature List:
A feature-rich and fully formatted e-mail notification automatically sent to each of your suppliers
Each vendor receives notification only for products associated with him (individual product codes or partial matches with wildcards)
All parameters for each vendor independent on other vendor settings
You can define unlimited number of profiles for your suppliers, each with individual settings
Optionally sends order information by HTML formatted e-mail or as plain text
Allows custom formatting of the notification: header, footer, font sizes, colors, embeded images,...
Optionally sends payment details. The first 4 digits of the CC number may be transfered. Please use the MmPGP for secure transfer of the entire CC#.
Optionally sends detailed user data including the IP address, host, agent, language, etc.
Optionally values of predefined form field variables from 4th party modules may be displayed in the notification.
Customizable table design - free choice of fields/columns
Product thumbnails may be included in the invoice!
Long product descriptions may be used in addition to product names
Variable tokens available in subject, header and footer
Product cost instead of the product price may be displayed.
Totals are calculated for each vendor separately.
Ordered products may be sorted by any column
Additional user-defined column may be inserted in the invoice (any position). Miva variables, functions or file calls may be used to generate values for the additional column. It may contain for example a download link, price in a second currency, tracking info, etc.
Several options for different ways of displaying product attributes (same line, new lines, autoselection)
Adds the order ID number or other variables into the subject of the e-mail for better tracking
Optionally sets the customer's e-mail address into the From field so, that it works on most mailservers (in contrary to the standard Merchant's notification module)
Supports POP before SMTP - requirements at some secured mailservers
Can display additional form fields like those of the Addednum or some other third party modules
Notification including the CC numbers may be sent encrypted, in cooperation with the MmPGP module
Both succesfull and unsuccesfull e-mail attempts are logged. The log file may be viewed in the MmVENDOR Admin control panel and unsucessfull notifications are accessible through the Ultra Batch Report
Optionally hides zero charges (tax, shipping,...)
Optionally displays subtotals
Time zone setting and user-defined date and time format
Supports Miva Merchant 2, 3 and 4 on Unix and Windows platforms
Both English and German localizations available (others may be done on request)
Does not require OpenUI. Works with both OUI and MMUI.
Very easy installation, plug&play, no coding, no programming experience necessary
No OUI hook conflicts - truXoft modules are 100% conform to the Miva Merchant API, they do not use OUI extensions and therefore never cause hook conflicts with other modules, otherwise common at OUI modules.
The Order Fulfillment Kit provides HTML customer invoices with file attachments for soft goods deliveries, custom generated license keys for software or other electronically distributed products, and an XML notification system for transmitting order data (and license keys) instantly to external locations or license servers.
The Order Fulfillment Kit helps storeowners automate the fulfillment processes. For the retailer of electronically distributed products or other products that require an on-demand license key, this module gives you the ability to provide (random or custom generated) license keys to your customer immediately upon the purchase of a downloadable product. Additionally, soft-goods products can be immediately sent to customers as file attachments of their HTML invoice, and the generated license keys can be transmitted to external license servers via XML. For the retailer of hard goods that must be packaged and shipped to the customer, this module turns a completed Miva Merchant invoice into an XML message and sends that message to a designated CGI application on an external web server allowing the order information to be immediately catalogued in a database for order fulfillment. Additionally, retailers can use this information for customer retention campaigns, historical data collection and data mining.
Key Benefits:
HTML email invoice with file attachments
Fully customizable HTML template for your customer order fulfillment email
Soft goods can be attached* to the order invoice or sent as individual emails
Email template uses the same DynamicTemplate Engine used in other CBS products
License Key Generator with API
Creates keys immediately upon the payment of an order
Provides an API for custom licensing key generation
Example random key generator (with source) included
Keys can be listed in the email invoice underneath each product that requires a key
Keys can be sent separately to the customer in a second email
Order detail notification via XML message
XML order details sent to any CGI application on external web server
Entire invoice can be sent as an XML message to an external server
Or optionally, only those products with license information are sent as an XML message to an external server
Fail-safe XML notification: In the event the external server cannot accept an XML message at time of sending (i.e. server is down) or the server rejects the XML message, a “fallback” email is sent to a designated employee with the XML and reason for failure.
*Note: Recommended maximum total email attachment size is approximately 500kB.
The ultimate Miva Merchant autoresponder module - send specialized emails at the completion of the order. These emails are in addition to or in place of the standard emails which are sent at order completion, e.g. merchant notification, customer confirmation, vendor specific notification, and even cell phone emails. It also can send welcome emails when a new customer account is created. This module is for MIVA Merchant 5.x. We also have the corresponding module for an older version of Merchant.
Features: - Autoresponder - specialized emails at the completion of the order - Merchant notification and customer confirmation - Vendor and product specific templates - Can limit sending based on a specific attribute/option code for a product - Include coupons or promo codes when specific products ordered - Optionally require an input to allow the email, e.g. a response from Addendum - Easy to use checkbox configuration of vertical or horizontal layout emails - Highly configurable free form template layout emails with embedded tokens - HTML or text email formatting - Archive flat file is created for each template, easily track sales activity - Mail Manager Report module can display the flat file contents by time period or product - Ship to, bill to and other email addresses for each template - Send emails to your company's internal departments, e.g. shipping - Emails to web enabled cell phones as abbreviated messages - Open architecture so that other events can also trigger an automated response - Can resend emails when the customer knows and enters their order number and email address - Use render token to send an email from any pagein the store - Send a welcome email before the order completes and optionally include a promo code, customer login and password - Include 3rd party data with module tokens, e.g. Addendum responses - Display shipping and payment invoice messages - Create packing slip and label emails - Ship to country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations - Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon - Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Feature Details. In admin, you create one or more template emails. Eachtemplate can be different, i.e. what it displays, how the data is oriented on the screen/paper, and what product(s) triggers the autoresponder. Most responses are triggered by the product codes purchased. Some example uses:
Email to any of your drop-ship manufacturers listing the Ship To address and the products to be shipped if using real time creditcard authorization. The module will sort out which drop shippergets which emails, including listing the products to be shipped. Unlike some other vendors' drop ship notification modules, this one only includesthe products belonging to the associated drop shipper. Thus a drop shipper doesnot see the products being supplied to the customer by other drop shippers when the order contains multiple product sources. Youcan still use the module if you are not using real time authorization, but you would send the email to your pending mailbox until manual processingverified the charge, then forward to the drop shipper. This would savehand entering the order. In addition to the email, an archive flatfile is created which you can use to easily track sales activity related to each of your drop-ship manufacturers.
Email to Ship To or Bill To or both thanking them for a donation to your sponsored charity on your site.
Email to your shipping department listing Ship To addressand products ordered if using real time credit card authorization. Products section can be cut/folded to result in a shipping label with your company address included. If notusing real time authorization, use the pending mailbox technique similarto the drop shipper scenario above.
Email a promo coupon code if a customer purchases a specificproduct or from a list of products
Email service, warranty, shipping and contact information on specific products or product lines
Send an email to your cell phone's inbox when orders are placed in your store (requires a cell phone plan that assigns an email address to your phone).
You own a mall with multiple stores within the mall. Thosestore owners rent the stores from you for a percentage of their gross. Use mail manager as an audit tool to track theirsales. In addition to the autoresponse email, mail manager produces a flat file with order ID, date, product name, product code, quantity, price for each, and price extended. Periodically retrieve that flat file and import into a spreadsheetfor easy analysis.
The included Mail Manager Report module can display the contents of that flat file through admin. It can filter the report by specific timeperiods (daily, weekly, monthly) within reason. The limits of your PC or server may prevent very lengthy reports for excessively long time periods. It can also limit the report to only one product code. Since the templates canbe designed for each vendor, you can create individual vendor flat files with a corresponding report for each vendor.
Literally, you can have a different autoresponder for everyproduct in your store.
However, Mail Manager has a somewhat open architecture sothat other events can also trigger an automated response. For example:
Send a welcome email before the order completes, but afterthe customer completes the registration process (for those thatcreate an account)
Send a thank you for rating a product (using our Rate This system)along with a coupon code for taking the time to do so
You can use the ifvar script or var token in these "other event" emails. For example, generate a unique coupon code with a module token and insert it in the welcome email to give the new customer an incentive to buy now.
Use a render token to send an email from any page in the store. For example, put it on the product page to send a specific email when a specific product's page is viewed by a customer who is logged in. The email goes to their password recovery address (but could be bill to or ship to address). If you want it sent to a hard coded address, e.g. yours to monitor traffic,you would put your email address in the 3rd parameter of the token. The uses of this feature are endless. Send a coupon to entice customers to buy when they visit specific product screens. Tell them about other products related to the one they just viewed.
As you can see, the uses of this Mail Manager are quite diverse. Some of the variable features configured through admin for each template are:
Show or hide any of the data elements
Orient your email either horizontally or vertically
There is also a free form template using an extensive list of tokens and mini-scripts to customize the emails that are sent at the time of order completion. They can vary from mimics of the standard merchant notification and customer confirmation emails to brief order notifications for better acceptance within cell phone emails. The emails can be plain text or HTML formattedemails for better readability. You can change the fonts, colors,layout and even add images to your confirmation and notificationemails. If your shipping and payment modules are configured withinvoice notices, these can be included in the emails with a token. You can include data from other 3rd party modules, like Addendum, by using tokens. You can also create packing slip and label emails with the "ship to" country address formatted according to the applicable country's postal recommendations when using the HTML template. In the free form template you canalso set the time so that it can be offset from the server time,thus display for a different time zone in each of your emails.
Customize your email and store's physical address
Designate email recipient, i.e. Ship To and/or Bill To and/or fixed email address
List full or partial Ship To and/or Bill To address
Restrict email to a specified order dollar value range, reward big spending customers with a coupon for their next visit
Restrict email to a specified list of countries, thus allowing for language specific emails
Resend order emails if the customer knows and enters the order number and email which match the actual order. The form for these two data elements can be placed anywhere you can edit the store user interface, e.g. headers, footers, welcome screen.
You can specify the product code and an attribute/option value that must also be met before the email will be sent. This is particularly useful when the emails are used for vendor notification. A certain product might bedrop shipped by two different vendors and the only difference is the selected attribute/option value.
Insert a "require" token that has to be met before the email will be allowed. As example,have a checkbox using Addendum to ask a customer if they want to be added to a list server (mailing list). Then if they check the box, the "yes" response is sent to Mail Manager. The Mail Manager can then generate a specifically formatted email to activate an email address at your list server, if you have one.
Write a different body for each of the email templates you add
List products and prices or just the products without prices
Link the email usage to one or more product codes or entire inventory with wildcard
No need to go to each product to link the email, a copy and paste froma flat text file will add hundreds instantly
I'd be surprised if you find that this capability exists anywhere in any mid-priced shopping cart system. Autoresponders that fill in the blanks are one thing, but this is a store owner, pre-planned autoresponse for a specific product. Within your store, you could have dozens of different responses (individual or grouped) or a wildcard response for all of the products. You can use itto make connections not directly related to sales, yetlinked to a specific sale.
Customer buys a kayak from your store. Tell them about the kayak camp 20 miles from your store and give them the 800number of the guy with the info about a big get together next month.
Customer buys an orchid from you which would lead you to believe he/she may have a specific variety you have been looking for. You autorespond with your want list for your nursery inhopes of finding the needle in a haystack.
As you can see, this list could be endless. Targetted, intelligent autoresponders are designed to increase your store'sbusiness and decrease the amount of time employees spend on sendingout product specific, emails.
The pre-formed templates are easy to configure and do not require programming experience. For the more experienced, you also have the option of using tokens and mini-scripts in free form templates. An example free form template is included with the install documents.
PIN Fulfillment allows you to automatically issue PIN Numbers to customers when qualifying products are purchased. This module was developed for stores selling calling cards, but can be used for issuing any type of unique code for products, such as license keys, passwords, etc. The only requirement is that each "PIN" number is unique. Optionally, a second configurable field may be used to go along with PIN numbers. It might be used for a phone number, if selling calling cards, or for a password if selling logins/passwords, etc. The labels for both fields are configurable.
PIN numbers may be sent in a separate email and/or displayed in the invoice. Note: displaying on the invoice requires Merchant 4.0 or higher and the OpenUI, MMUI installation instructions for enabling this feature will be provided upon request.
The admin settings allow you to customize the email from address, cc, subject, header, and footer. You can also optionally be auto-notified when PIN numbers are running low for a product.
PIN Fulfillment may also be configured so that PIN numbers are only auto-issued to customers assigned to a particular availability group (by default all orders are auto-approved). If the customer isn't assigned, the orders can be manually approved from an order history console. You can auto-assign customers to the availability group when manually approving orders as well.
You can also setup the module to allow customers to view their PIN order history from the account edit screen. Note: this feature requires Merchant 4.0 or higher and the OpenUI, MMUI installation instructions for enabling this feature will be provided upon request. Additionally, you can set a customer order counter and receive notifications when customers' PIN orders have reached multiples of that counter (for rewarding frequent shoppers with coupons, etc.).
PIN Numbers can be manually added for products via a simple to use console in the edit products screen, or in bulk using the included import module.
An order history database is maintained, and easily viewed with a searchable console (for looking up lost PIN numbers for customers, etc.). The console also features optional search filters for searching by order number, customer name, customer email, product code, and PIN number.

DiscountTrk is our mid-level discount module. It provides the ability to create both volume discounts and buy # get # free discounts. Product prices are updated on the screen as the basket contents change. Discounts are easily created through the standard merchant admin interface or for even quicker discount creation and modification, import and export modules have been included in our DiscountTrk module.
Volume Discounts can be created on a storewide or product specific basis. These discounts are applied to every customer in your store.
One option for discounts created on a storewide basis is a fixed amount off. With a store wide fixed amount off discount, you can make it so that if a customer purchases a certain number of items in the store they will receive the specified dollar amount off of each of those items. Another option is a percentage off discount.
