Re: FAX-to-Order Software?
William,
The client already has sophisticated online catalog ordering capabilities.
Some customers want to enter the order in their system, print it, and fax it
in. It would be nice if all purchasing systems could output a purchase order
in a tagged data format. Even an email attachment could be translated easily
if the PO had some intelligible format.
