The link with Desco is a comprehensive integrated link with the vendor's web shop.

Activate coupling

You can set up the Desco link under your profile in IAMD. Open your profile.


Go to the links tab:


Click the '+ Add' button at the bottom left and choose 'Desco':


​Enter the customer number, your personal login for the web shop and your personal password for the web shop in the pop-up. (Not the data to log into our application)
Then click save.


The link has now been activated.

Add desco products to your offer

At the quotation level, when adding lines, under product, you will now be given some additional options.



These options are:

  1. List of vendor (this is the list of all active items of the vendor present in the IAMD database)

  2. Shopping basket of supplier (this option takes you to the shopping basket of the Desco webshop. You can add products in here and retrieve them in your quote, directly from the webshop)

  3. Own library (these are your products, these can be found under products in your IAMD environment and do not come in via the supplier link)

From the supplier list

Choose your supplier (Desco) by clicking on the logo:


Specify one or more articles and click add at the bottom of your screen


The items have now been added to the lines in your quote.
The net price will be transferred to the cost price field, the gross price will be transferred to the sales price field.

Shopping-basket-of-supplier

Choose a supplier by clicking on the logo:


The vendor's (Desco) web shop opens.



Add the desired items to your shopping cart using the shop's search function and then click add.


The requested item will be read into your quote.
The net price will be transferred to the cost price field, the gross price will be transferred to the sales price field.

If you wish to turn an added supplier item into your own item you can do so by standing on the freight cart behind the line and clicking on the Create Fixed Product button.

Do not worry about it.


You can also access the external product page through this way. The supplier's webshop will open in a new tab and you will find the detailed item info there in the supplier's shop.
