Your Application consists of 2 main parts, Back End (Management Console) and Front End portal (Page which could be embedded to your website). Front-end applications have different buttons, fields, and functionality. Here we will explain what every button does.
Dashboard: your main page. Usually, this page would be the first one that the client sees.
Quotes: List of all submitted quotes.
Projects: List off all orders made.
Instant Quote: Page where you can upload or drag and drop your CAD files to get an instant quote.
Catalogue: "Online warehouse" of CAD files, which can be used for easier reordering.
Sign In: This button gives you the ability to log in or create an account.
Basket: Your "Shopping Cart", where you can see all parts added to the basket, pricing, save quotes, add voucher codes, etc.
Dashboard -> Request a Quote: A Field that gives you the ability to send a manual quote request as a message, usually with some special needs described.
Dashboard -> Instant Quote: Same as #4.
Dashboard, Request a Quote:
The two main functions of the Dashboard are: 1) Being the Home page, and 2) Giving your clients the ability to submit Manual Quote Requests.
Manual Requests are done via the "Request a Quote" workflow and can be used to send a message, attach files, and add notes to the request. Usually, this function is needed to submit a very specific request or large files that can't be easily quoted otherwise.
Quotes page:
The Quotes page is a key part of the Front End application that enables your clients to manage and track all their quotation activity in one place.
When a client submits a request through “Request a Quote,” it is reviewed and processed by your team via the Management Console (Back End). Once the review is completed and the quote is sent back to the client, it automatically appears on the Quotes page.
From this page, clients can:
View quote details, including the quote ID, quote status, time remaining, gross price, and other relevant information.
Review and compare multiple quotes at once.
Accept and pay directly through the Checkout interface.
Reject a quote if it no longer meets their needs.
Reorder older accepted quotes with the "Checkout again" button.
In addition to the active quotes, this page also provides a complete historical record of all previous quotes, allowing clients to easily access, reference, and manage their full quoting history.
Projects page:
The Orders section of the Front End application allows clients to easily view and manage all the orders they have placed. Each order entry provides key details such as order status, date, quantity, and total price, ensuring full transparency throughout the production process.
This page also includes a communication widget (represented by a letter icon), which enables two-way messaging between the client and your team. It’s particularly useful for sharing comments, updates, or additional instructions related to a specific order, keeping all communication organized in one place.
Additionally, clients have the option to reorder parts directly from this page. This feature is especially convenient for frequently produced or repeated parts, allowing clients to quickly duplicate and submit new orders without re-entering all the details.
Instant Quote:
The Instant Quote module is one of the most important features of the Front End application, providing clients with a fast and intuitive way to get pricing for their parts.
Clients can upload one or multiple CAD files and configure their order by selecting options such as:
Printing Technology
Material
Color
Post-Processing Services
Additional configurable options set up in the Management Console
Once the selections are made, the system automatically calculates the price for a single part. Clients can then:
Add the part to their basket and proceed to checkout, or
Submit a request for manual review to receive customized pricing.
This module streamlines the quoting process, allowing clients to quickly get accurate pricing while maintaining flexibility for special requirements or manual review.
Catalogue:
The Catalogue is a unique feature of the Front End application, acting as an “online warehouse” of 3D models that clients can browse and order directly.
This feature is especially useful for both small and large businesses, particularly when certain parts with consistent specifications are printed frequently. Clients can:
Search and explore available 3D models
Add models directly to their basket for quick ordering
Catalogue items are managed and uploaded from the Management Console, giving you full control over which models are available to your clients. This functionality streamlines repeat orders and makes it easy for clients to access commonly used designs without needing to upload files each time.
Shopping Cart / Basket:
The Shopping cart/Basket is the central place where clients can review all the parts they have added for purchase. It provides a clear overview of the order, including part details, quantities, total pricing, etc.
From the Shopping Cart, clients can also:
Apply Voucher codes - provides the ability to propose custom discounts to selected clients.
Save Quote - allows the client to download the quote as a PDF document and submit it for review before paying.
Proceed to the Checkout page to complete their order.
Additionally, the client can adjust the quantity of a part (4), leave notes (5), or remove parts (6).
Checkout page:
By clicking on the Checkout button in the Shopping Cart, the client will be taken to the Checkout page, where they can finish their order.
From the Checkout page, clients can also:
Enter Billing and Shipping addresses
Select Delivery methods
Select Payment methods
Add additional information or special instructions for their order
This page ensures a smooth checkout process by consolidating all necessary order details in one easy-to-use interface, helping clients complete their purchases efficiently and accurately.
