Use Show PID to add a Product Identifier (PID) page to your Export Invoices. PIDs are needed for some sales into the EU.
PIDs are generally needed for goods shipped into the EU from outside it, to consumers or to businesses without a VAT number. Your carrier or customs broker files the customs declaration and will ask you for the PIDs.
Zedonk does not connect to couriers, so you pass the PIDs on yourself. If you are unsure whether this applies to you, check with your carrier or customs broker.
Show PID is only available for the Export Invoice in the Portrait and Landscape styles.
Set your default PID format
Go to Settings > General Settings > Documents and open the Invoice tab.
Expand Export Invoice - PDF Settings and choose the Portrait or Landscape style.
Tick Show PID to have the PID page included by default. Repeat for the other style if you use both. You can change this each time you print.
In Set PID to, choose what your PIDs are made from;
- Style + Fabric + Colour + Size
- Style + Size
- Style + Colour + Size
- Description + Size
The parts are separated by single spaces, with no hyphens. Each PID covers one variant, so every size has its own PID.
Click [Save] to confirm.
Include the PID page when you print
From the order's Order Tracker, click the line Action button against the invoice and click [Print].
Set Type to Export and Style to Portrait or Landscape.
Open Additional Options and tick Show PID. Leave it unticked and the invoice prints as normal.
Click [Preview] or [Print].
The PID page
The PID page is added after your invoice and before your terms. It is always A4 landscape, even if your invoice is portrait.
It lists one row per variant. Long names wrap onto a second line.
- M-PID - the Merchant PID, a code you give the product. Zedonk builds it from your product data, in the format you choose.
- NS-PID - the manufacturer's own code. In Zedonk it is the same value as the M-PID.
- S-PID - an internationally recognised barcode number, such as an EAN. Zedonk takes it from your Barcodes. It shows NO if the product has no barcode.
