N.B: To access this box in Opera Job Management: from the Files menu, select the Systems button.

• Click the button to create a new empty system.
• Enter the name you want to give to the new system and the supplier’s name;
• To save the entered data, click the File:Record.png button.

N.B: This last step is always necessary because series are linked to each system; therefore, after naming the system, you must enter the series by clicking the button.

By clicking , you can enter the name of the series.

In the central part of the box, there are fields where standard data for the profiles of the series can be entered. This means the operator can input data that is the same for all profiles in the series, and the program will automatically record it in the "profile archives" when the profiles are loaded.

You have now created a new system with its series.

How to set prices for series

Go to the Archives menu and click on the Systems submenu:

Select the File:Edit.png button to enter the system, then in the next screen, click the button.

The system’s series management screen will open, where we click the File:Edit.png button, then File:Prices.png.

The price panel will open, where you can enter the pricing data:

Click to create a price for a color or finish; specify the finish or color. If you manage prices based on finishes, remember that it is not necessary to enter the color, as explained in the relevant section and chapter of this manual. Conversely, if you manage prices based on colors without a linked finish, you do not need to enter the finish.

Enter the price and, if applicable, the discount. You can now save by pressing File:Register.png. If you want to enter more prices for other colors or finishes, repeat the process; otherwise, press to exit the screen. Keep pressing File:Register.png and to return to the system archive.
