Sample dresses
Track which boutiques carry which samples — a dedicated report for the studio, and a self-serve view for every stockist.
A sample order is a gown for a boutique's shop floor rather than for a bride. Retailers choose the order type as they configure, and samples get their own reporting on both sides.
Ordering a sample
In the configurator, the retailer picks sample instead of bride. Sample orders skip the bride record and wedding date, and options marked bride-only (made-to-measure, for instance) aren't offered — a sample is a stock gown, not a commission.
The studio report
Studio → Samples flattens every sample ordered across your stockists into one report:
- Grouped by stockist — which boutiques carry which styles
- Filter by style — see at a glance who stocks a given gown
- Print-friendly — take it to a season planning meeting
It's the answer to "who has the new collection on their floor?" without a trawl through past orders.
The stockist's view
Retailers get the same self-serve report for their own shop under Samples in their portal — every sample they've ordered, flattened by style, handy when planning what to add for the new season.
