Once you have created an order queue, you must configure its corresponding order form, so your clients can place an online order.


The Order Form Wizard consists of seven steps. At any point, you can save your progress and come back to it. Any Options page can be skipped.

In Step 2, you can customize which service-related fields to include in the order form. The first displayed fields are standard input fields for the new service. Below those, any configured custom service fields display. The last set of fields are configured upgrade options, displayed by their upgrade group.
Select the Client Change option, if you want your client to be able to change the input value, for each field.
A field set to only display disables the field. A field without any options selected, removes it from the order form. |

In Step 3, you can include any other related or complimentary service plan for the client to include in their order. For example, if the order form is a dedicated server, you could include a separate backup service as an optional add on.

In Step 4, you can customize which service-related fields to include in the order form for the add on services you included from Step 3. If no add-ons were selected, you will move directly to Step 5.
The first displayed fields are standard input fields for the new service. Below those, any configured custom service fields display. The last set of fields are configured upgrade options, displayed by their upgrade group.
Select the Client Change option, if you want your client to be able to change the input value, for each field.
A field set to only display disables the field. A field without any options selected, removes it from the order form. |

In Step 5, you specify which client-specific fields to include in the order form.
The first field creates a login and password field, so existing clients can verify their accounts and add new services to their accounts. This field bypasses the Provision Client order step in the order queue. The second field creates a password for the client during the Lead order step and displays the password in the order form’s password field. The next displayed fields are standard input fields for the client account information. Below those, any configured custom contact information fields display.
Select the Client Change option, if you want your client to be able to change the input value, for each field.
A field set to only display disables the field. A field without any options selected, removes it from the order form. |

In Step 6, specify which payment methods the client can use and how the initial bill will be calculated.
The first section sets the pricing for the initial sign up period. You can select a specific day of the month that all new orders should be prorated to. For example, setting the prorate date to 1 prorates all incoming orders to the first of the following month.
You can also specify the cutoff day for the prorated service to begin during the next full renewal period. If all orders are prorated to the first of the following month, setting the second field to 20 prorates the service so orders received on or after the 20th would prorate to the second following month. For example, if an order is received on October 20th, the service will be prorated to December 1, instead of November 1.
The third option inserts a discount coupon code field that either applies the discount to just the requested service or the entire order. Any order submitted with a valid code, will automatically have the discount applied. Coupon codes need to be predefined in Settings beforehand.
The Payment Types to be Accepted section is a list of various payment types for your clients to pay with. Depending on which types are enabled, additional fields are necessary. The Affiliates section adds support for calls to iDevAfilliate, included on the last page of the order form, after the order has been completed.
Select the Client Change option, if you want your client to be able to change the input value, for each field.
A field set to only display disables the field. A field without any options selected, removes it from the order form. |

In Step 7, you set the overall design of the form. The Copy Style From Form section lists all your order forms so you can select a specific form’s style and apply it. In the Template section, you can select a template to apply. The Header/Footer contains the HTML for the header and footer of the order form. The CSS Styles section contains specific values for the various CSS controls to be used by the order form. The advanced link toggles the CSS Styles from individual entry fields to a field to enter HTML and CSS code of your preference.
