Reference
Choose whether the client is required or not to provide a reference and configure the field to be visible or non-visible. A help message may be provided if desired.
Deadline
The deadline of the order is the latest date when work related to the order must be completed. You may set this option to be required or not required on the order form, make it visible to or hidden from the client, and add a help message. Additionally, you may configure:
- Minimum Lead Time - Specify the earliest deadline in terms of hours from "now" that a client can select within the order form.
- Default Hour - By default, the deadline time part is preset to 12 AM, but you can change that to set it a different hour such as 6 AM.
- Configure a Delivery Time - Typically a deadline should match your work hours. For example, you may specify here that a deadline must be between 10am and 6pm.
Domains
The domains settings may be used to configure the domains that will be displayed to the client and pre-selected on the order form when that specific user option is chosen. These settings may be configured:
- Help Message - Provides additional information to the client when clicking on the tooltip icon
. - Existing Domains - Configure existing domains that will be displayed as selection options to the client on the order form for the user option.
- Preselected - Configure any domains and/or subdomains that should be automatically selected in the order form.
Languages
Source Languages - The source languages settings may be used to configure if language selection is a requirement for the client, to provide a help message, and to configure available or default language selections on the order form.

Working file
Uploading Files - This option may be used to configure whether or not the user is required to upload files as part of the submitted request. If unticked (disabled), a user can submit requests without uploading any files. This is not recommended.
- Uploading Reference Material - This option may be used to configure whether or not the user is required to upload reference materials as part of the submitted request. If enabled, a separate upload option for reference material is added to the order form when the user option is selected. Those files will be stored in a dedicated folder inside the order library.
- Instructions - A text box may be provided to let a client fill in additional instructions or comments about the order on the form. If enabled, an additional field for adding comments will reside on the order form.
(optional) Custom fields
If you create custom fields for orders, you will have the possibility to enable them in this section right away. This will allow your clients to enter the required data when submitting their requests.
