2.1. Overview
When adding a new export doc manually the list of documents that you are able to select are known as Export Doc Types.
Provided you have the correct admin permissions (if not see your internal system administrator) then you will able to edit the items in this list in one of two ways:
- Select the cog icon next to the document field in the Add Export Doc form
- Under Main Menu > System > Lists
Both ways will lead you to see the System list dialog box, where you search or scroll to find Export Doc Types. When selected you will see a list of all existing Export Doc Types.
Clicking the pencil icon next to an item in the list will bring up the various fields that you can set for an export doc type including name, default (non-member price), saving applied if a member, VAT rate, nominal code, department, product code.
There is a Region field in the export doc type - this can be set to associate the export doc type only with a certain region, you can name the regions whatever you like, for example, ARAB.
If you use this feature, then you also need to ensure that countries are set up correctly. Country is also a System List so you find it in the same way as you did Export Doc Types above. More information on system lists is linked.
Selecting the pencil next to a Country will open the form for the Country and there is a corresponding Region field. If you place the same Region name (in our example ARAB) in that field then only Export Doc Types that have a Region name matching the Country selected in Export Doc Destination will be displayed - Export Doc Types that have no Region set will be available regardless of the Destination selected.
