The most important table is the job table.
Typically, a job results from a customer putting an item in their basket. Each job represents a deliverable item or service from a producer to a customer, including its associated options.
Each job can have several revenue items or options available, and multiple jobs can be grouped together in orders. An order may also have a package deal, where jobs purchased together earn discounts.
If you are selling other producers’ existing products, then it’s fairly straightforward to present the products in a searchable interface, and optionally use the TemplateCloud library of professionally-designed, data-aware templates.
FLAPI provides all the job information you'll need to present our products in your listings. See also:
If you have your own products to sell, then you’ll need to create those products using POST /products/.
If you're building a website from scratch, you may want to check out our w3shop offering, which has the TemplateCloud & FLAPI in-built.
The customer will then make a product and quantity choice of item from your website, which you might add to your website’s basket, before placing the job (optionally in an order) after checkout.
If you are a supplier, you can produce orders made by others within Flyerlink. Simply use your Flyerlink login to access Production > Dashboard. This will show you all the jobs that need to be produced. P-FLAPI also provides functionality so you can progress these jobs within your own system. See Runs.
You can create jobs without creating orders; simply regard orders as a convenient way of grouping jobs together so they can be handled as one object, e.g. for payments, or combination offers.
Then you use the Production workflow. See Production and Runs, below.
