FM Database for Framing Shop

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

I'm looking for someone that can design a filemaker DB for a custom framing shop. One of the existing sample invoicing databases could be modified to meet the need. It need not be overly pretty (no custom graphics, etc). Just a basic customer database with invoices added under each customer. In place of the standard invoicing fields that are typically present which are indexed by product number we're looking more for a free-form entry with fields like the following: Quantity, Description, Frame Style, Frame Size, Matte Color 1, Matte Color 2, Matte Color 3 etc.. we can get more into the fields of the actual order form later.

Overall it's not that different from the existing customer / invoice databases but different enough that they won't work out of the box. The fact that every order is a custom piece doesn't lend itself well to predetermined SKU's / product numbers.

Get ahold of me by email and let give me a ball park figure on what you would typically charge for an initial db design for invoicing.
