Customer Required Field

Hi Everyone! Happy Friday. Hope everyone is gearing up for a great weekend. :)

Wanted to make sure that everyone is clear on what the Customer Required field in Item Maintenance does when it comes to the WebStore.

Checked = in order for anyone to buy that item on the WebStore they HAVE to be a customer in Tracks - most likely this means that they have to be a student at your school. This restricts sales to the general public, moms, dads, etc...unless they have a student tied to their account.

Not Checked = anyone can purchase this item - moms, dads, general public, etc can purchase this item WITHOUT having to having to assign it to a student.

Items that should probably be Customer Required include - dance tickets, field trips, class fees, etc...anything that you will need to provide a list of students that have purchased that item.

Items that don't need to be customer required - general merchandise items such as school t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, and donation items.

Make sure that you have your items checked properly!
