Print Management System Updates: Enhance User Roles, Vendor Fields & Address Accuracy

Keeping your print shop software running smoothly is crucial for operational efficiency. The latest print management system updates introduce new user role permissions, improved vendor custom fields, and smarter address validation using Google Maps. These enhancements ensure secure user access, accurate vendor workflows, and reliable contact addresses for seamless order processing.


New User Role Permissions for Contact Import & Export

Administrators now have greater control over internal users with these new permissions:

  • Allow Contact & Company Import

  • Allow Contact & Company Export

How It Works:
Navigate to:
Settings → User Roles → (Choose Role)

Disabling these options hides the Import Contacts and Download CSV buttons on both the Contact and Company pages.

Benefits:

  • Prevents non-admin users from performing bulk imports

  • Protects sensitive contact information from unauthorized exports

  • Maintains database security while allowing daily operations


Vendor Custom Fields Enhancements

The system now better supports vendor management by introducing a dedicated Vendor Fields tab.

Key Features:

  • Appears only if vendor custom fields are in use

  • Required fields trigger proper validation

  • Users cannot save an order until mandatory fields are filled

What’s Fixed:

  • Previously, empty required fields were ignored

  • Product pages sometimes showed incorrect or missing vendor fields

Benefit:
These updates streamline vendor workflow and reduce errors during order creation.


Address Validation Improvements (Google Maps Integration)

The address validation tool now works more intelligently, checking both the main contact address and all addresses in the contact’s address book.

How to Use:

  • After importing contacts, open the Validate Address tool

  • Select the contact or address to validate

  • Click Get Address to auto-fill missing details (county, postal code, city/region)

  • Click Apply to save updates

Why It Matters:
Accurate addresses improve:

  • Shipping label generation

  • Tax calculations

  • Overall order accuracy


Conclusion

These print management system updates enhance your software workflow by:

  • Securing user permissions for better data protection

  • Improving vendor management with proper validation and field display

  • Ensuring address accuracy through Google Maps integration

By implementing these updates, print shops can enjoy smoother operations, fewer errors, and consistent, reliable data across every part of the system.
