    Hi,


    I'm looking to be able to create an order from that I can give to a group of people that each person in the group can fill out/order items separately and then I can get all of the data in 1 place/spreadsheet.  Do you guys have anything that I can do that with?


    Thanks,

    Lewis

    Yes, it's possible with Jotform. What you can do is create a basic payment form then integrate it with Google Spreadsheet that can be viewable to a group or anyone that has the link.

    Jed,
    Thanks for getting back to me and the info! Those links answered some of
    my questions, below is everything that I need the form to do. Can you let
    me know if your forms will do all of these?
    · Not collect payment, just collect the order info/data.
    · Be able to easily print each order individually.
    · Be able to export all of the orders from 1 form to a spreadsheet.
    · Have the form calculate the order total and price of each item.
    · Be able to add pictures and hopefully videos to each product.
    · Be able to have options for each product (ie sizes).
    · After the order period is over make it so people can no longer place
    orders on the form without having to delete the form.
    · Be able to make certain selections required.
    · Add my logo to the top of the form.
    · Be able to copy one completed form to make another form.
    Thanks,
    Lewis

    Greetings Lewis.

    Thank you for your message.

     - Not collect payment, just collect the order info/data

    You are able to collect this information using the Purchase order. Although this option is the easiest one, you can always create a custom order form, using basic form elements. 

     - Be able to easily print each order individually

    You are able to create and customize PDF files that can be emailed to you for every submission. You can also print submissions directly from the JotForm website.

     - Be able to export all of the orders from 1 form to a spreadsheet

    You are able to export submissions to Excel spreadsheets or CSV file. You can also add Google Sheet integration, which will automatically fill your online Google Sheet.

     - Have the form calculate the order total and price of each item

    Purchase order have the option to add product quantity, tax, coupons, and all calculations are displayed and calculated automatically. If you wish to use custom fields, you need to calculate the price manually using calculation values and Form Calculations.

     - Be able to add pictures and hopefully videos to each product

    You can add multiple images, however, if you wish to add videos, you need to create a custom order form.

     - Be able to have options for each product

    This option is also available for a purchase order. For more information, please click here.

     - After the order period is over make it so people can no longer place orders on the form without having to delete the form

    You can set a date and a time when your form is available. After that time, a custom message will be shown to your users:

    Is it possible to create a clothing or merchandise form? Image 1 Screenshot 30

     - Be able to make certain selections required

    You can easily set the field as a required one by right-clicking on it, and selecting Required:

    Is it possible to create a clothing or merchandise form? Image 2 Screenshot 41

     - Add my logo to the top of the form

    You can add any image anywhere on the form using the Image form element.

     - Be able to copy one completed form to make another form

    You can always easily clone the form. For more information, please click here.

    Let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Thanks for the info! I created an account and I'm working on making a
    sample from to test things. Is there a way to do this? If I send all of
    the orders to my contact I don't want to charge shipping, but I'd like to
    give my customers an option to ship directly to them and the charge would
    be $10 to do that. I would want the $10 added to the total. Is there a
    way that the from could do that?
    Also, can I add videos to the products or can they only be photos?
    Thanks,
    Lewis

    But I only want them to be charged shipping if they select that they want
    the item shipped to them vs the contact, not for every order. Is this
    possible?
    Can I hyperlink the product to my website?
    Can I upload a video or only photos?
    Thanks,

    Hello,

    In that case, you will need to add the products outside the payment field. You can use Single/multiple choice fields for the products, assign values to the options in these fields.

    OR you can use any of the widgets below for the products:

    Inventory widget https://www.jotform.com/widgets/inventory 

    Quantity Gift registry widget https://www.jotform.com/widgets/quantity-gift-registry

    You can show a shipping cost field (with a default shipping fee) linked to conditions. You can show this field only if the user wants the item shipped - How-to-Show-or-Hide-Fields-Base-on-User-s-Answer.

    After that you can add these fields (product fields), shipping field into a Form Calculation widget to calculate the total - How-to-Perform-Form-Calculation-Using-a-Widget 

    Can I hyperlink the product to my website?

    Sorry, I did not understand this question. The products are added inside your form. You can embed the form on your website if that is what you are referring to - Embedding-a-Form-to-a-Web-Page 

    Can I upload a video or only photos?

    On payment field, you can add only photos - not videos. If you want to add videos, you can use our Youtube widget on the form - https://www.jotform.com/widgets/youtube

    Thanks for the info!
    I tried to use the "How to Assign Calculation Value" to the " Would you
    like us to send your order to the show contact XXXX? If we do that shipping
    is free. We can also send it directly to you for $10. Only fill in the
    shipping address if we are sending it to you." element to the form and add
    $10 to the " Send it directly to me for $10" but it didn't add $10 to the
    total. What did I do wrong?
    Also, is there a way that I can do a product bundle? An example would be
    for $85 you can choose 1 of 4 sweatshirts, 1 of 4 t-shirts and 1 of 3 hats?
    Thanks,

    Hello Lewis,

    The Shipping cost will not show on the payment field total using this method (as I already informed in my last response).

    You will need to add a Form Calculation widget at the end of the form and add the Shipping cost field and the Product field:

    Example:

    1593997932screencast06072020 1 Screenshot 10

    Also, is there a way that I can do a product bundle? An example would be for $85 you can choose 1 of 4 sweatshirts, 1 of 4 t-shirts and 1 of 3 hats?

    In that case, you will need to change product list structure in the following manner:

    and hat they want (as they can choose from several options for each item).

    Hi,

    Please check my cloned form: https://form.jotform.com/201871796625970

    I created a Bundle Product below. You can choose the combination you want at different prices. You can also configure that to your own preferences. 

    Will that work for you? If yes, let us know so we can guide you.

    Thank you. The problem is that there is about 72 different combinations of
    the 6 sweatshirts, 4 t-shirts and 3 hats, so I can have 72 items in the
    dropdown. Is there another way to be able to do this? If not that's OK.
    Thanks for all of your help!!

    You may alternatively use a text input field for any preferences based on numbers such as size and quantity.

    This way, it would diminish how many options are listed on drop-downs.

    Thanks for your feedback. I don't think that will work, but I found
    another way to do it.
    I signed up for an account so I could test the form out vs other company's
    forms to see which one I wanted to use. You guys sent me a 50% off
    discount that was just good for the first day, but I didn't know if I
    wanted to use you guys at that point. I would like to use you guys. Is
    there any way you can still offer that 50% promotion?

    The same product can be included in multiple categories. You don't have to create a duplicate. In order to add a product to a category, please check-box it as shown below.

    Unfortunately, that's currently how the order works. It lists the "Product" first then next the category you've created.

    Good news is that there's a workaround and what you need is just create a blank category.

    ex.

    Next is to put the rest of the items listed under products that is not in your "Chapter Favorite" category.

    1594431999DrawingWindow 2020 07 11 09 Screenshot 21

    Output would be like this:

    If you don't want the word "Products" to appear, you can inject the CSS below.

    #label_19 {

        display: none;

    }

    Thank you for the information! I tried to do it on the form "Clone of
    Theta ABC Univ Trunk Show Bill Highway Order Form". Is there a way when you
    have the categories that the arrows for the arrows in the category boxes
    won't be there (ie you would have to keep them open all of the time and not
    minimize/hide the products in them?) I'm worried that people might
    accidentally click the arrow and hide/not see the products.
    Also, when I export the products to an excel spreadsheet is it possible to
    have each product in it's own column vs them all be listed in the
    "products" column, see attached.
