The classic order form can be integrated with your website and provides an easy way for new clients to request work by submitting a general order. When this form is used, the order will be viewable in the system; however, the client will not exist and a project must be created manually from the submitted order.

Since this is a new client in the system, a project template will most likely not be available.

These are typically created after one project has been placed in the system for a client. To learn more, please see Project Templates in the User Guide section.

Additionally, you can configure what tasks will be completed for the project (i.e. translation, revision, proofreading, etc.). Tick each applicable checkbox in the pop-up window to configure this information for the new project. For this example, there are no project templates and only translation + revision will be performed.

A pricelist defines the costing for work to be done. With it you will define the currency, discounts for fuzzy matches, discounts for pre-translations, and the price per task (translation, revision, etc.) and language pair (English to German, German to French,...). For orders being submitted through the classic form, you typically will not have a pricelist defined for the prospective client.
