right, i just got a new client for a website.
they have a company that sells furniture.
what he said he wants is for people to be able
to send orders online.
not to make a complete purchase, but just to send an
"order form" to the store they want (they have 4 stores)
so that someone can call them up and complete the order.
the odd thing is that he wants me to put the exact form online,
as it is on paper.
so the idea is this: scan the paper, make the fields editable,
incorporate some Excel features so individual prices add up and
advances are subtracted from the total cost and stuff like that,
add some check boxes and a number for each form (from 1 going upwards),
and have the client fill this in and by clicking "send" have the form
sent to a company email where it would then be printed off. then they could do the follow up by phone.
now,the thing is they want it to look like the exact form they have, because it just helps with their bureaucratic stuff.
any ideas?
am i making any sense?
thanks
john
ps. do you think i'd need some sort of security in this transaction?
it won't containt any sensitive data, but will containt personal information
