How to Export and Print Shelf Tickets

Linda Schneider
Updated

Shopfront has the capability to connect to an external program, DesignPro, to create and print shelf tickets. The shelf tickets are created by linking the shopfront database to codes on templates. Modifying and saving a template will change the way all tickets printed using this template will look. We provide our default templates to you. If you wish to modify these, please refer to our article on How to Edit Shelf Tickets. 

Note; Tickets for your integrated banner group promotions are printed through a company called Ticket-IT. For any queries, please contact the Ticket-IT support or your banner group representative. 

 

Exporting Shelf Tickets

To print shelf tickets, you will first need to export selected products from Shopfront to DesignPro. Everyday Tickets are your products' standard price points. Please refer to our guide on Promotional Tickets to edit or print your in-store specials.
