3. If needed, adjust the Bill by Date to 7/1, 8/1 or 9/1.

6. If adding additional products, click Change Style and continue entering them on the order. If additional items are getting the same design, make sure you apply the same Design ID to get quantity pricing.
7. If placeholder art was. used, go the Services Tan and uncheck Proof Required on any lines with placeholder art.

Instruction for Account Managers

Account Managers: When you see the description/comment referencing Nike Authentics, create the PO and send it to Roger.

Replacing the Art

Since these orders will have a PO attached, please work with your Account Managers to get the correct artwork added, including images, method, location and pricing. The Account Manager will have the ability to edit an order with the PO and can confirm the order once updated. 

When adding the new art follow these steps:

1. Go to Order Entry > Edit Existing Order
2. Click Show Order Lines
3. Click the first product > Apply Design > Quick Design and replace the art with the correct artwork for the garment.
4. If other garments are getting the exact same design (same method/location/color), then please click Apply Design and type in the design ID you just created, or choose from the existing designs in the gallery [...].
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until all art has been replaced with the correct art.
6. Go to Services to ensure Proof Required has been checked for the new designs (note - the system will only check 1 proof required per design).
7. Review & Complete the order. It will hit the artist's queue.

Please replace the art on these orders as quickly as possible to ensure on-time delivery.
