Disclaimer: Not all features shown are available with the standard LilyPad Vortex package.

  • Custom Field (Customer/Salesperson) — Lets you put links to websites on product pages. The contents of the custom field serve as the URL of the link.
  • Link Text (Customer/Salesperson) — Text box to set the link text for the Custom Field setting. (The URL is found on the product pop-up page and the link can be entered from within Fishbowl.)
  • Force Product Popups (Customer/Salesperson) — Always opens the product pop-up window. Products must be placed from the pop-up into the cart; clicking “Add to Cart” also opens the product window. Reach the pop-up by clicking the product image or the “Add to Cart” button.
  • Don’t Use Product Images (Customer/Salesperson) — Uses the default Vortex product image on product squares.
  • Show Next Receive Date (Customer/Salesperson) — Displays the next date items will be received, applied to items with no available inventory. Found in the shopping cart under the “Next Receive Date” drop-down.
  • Use a custom field to show lead time — Displays the lead time field when an item has no inventory. The message is viewable on the product pop-up page.

Note: Min and Max Qty are affected by what is entered into the custom fields.

  • Min QTY (Customer/Salesperson) — Sets a minimum quantity for products based on the custom field. The quantity auto-adjusts, and a pop-up appears when going below the set quantity.
  • Max QTY (Customer/Salesperson) — Sets a maximum quantity for products based on the custom field. The quantity auto-adjusts, and a pop-up appears when going above the set quantity.
  • Pricing Rule Min Qty (Customer/Salesperson) — Displays a pop-up when an item has a minimum-quantity discount active. The discount applies once the item reaches the set threshold.
  • Multiples from Min Qty (Customer/Salesperson) — Lets you sell products in multiples of the set minimum quantity. (E.g., if min QTY is 10, items can only be purchased in multiples of 10 — not 12 or 23, but 20, 30, etc.) A description of how much must be purchased appears on product tiles. If a non-multiple amount is entered, a pop-up appears and the amount auto-adjusts.
  • Show “Out of Stock” (Customer/Salesperson) — Displays an “Out of Stock” message on product tiles when there is no available inventory.
  • Custom Field Label (Customer/Salesperson) — Displays custom fields on a product page/tile. Only custom fields entered under Products are available.
