Bulk ordering is enabled in the Jim2 settings admin screen. Once enabled a series of extra settings will appear.
Bulk Order User Roles: User roles can be assigned to users who can use the bulk ordering system. Select the field to see all user roles that can be chosen to add to this multi-entry list.
Hide Quantity Selection Arrows: This allows to declutter the design by removing the small arrows attached to each quantity box to increment the value up and down. When it is removed, users need to enter the value.
Turn on Bulk Ordering for Product Screen: By selecting this option, standard product views where the product contains attributes will show up using the bulk ordering system.

Note: The horizontal and vertical attributes need to be assigned in the below settings. If a horizontal attribute does not exist but a vertical one does, then its assigned attribute will show in the horizontal position.

Desktop Default View: This setting sets the screen to a list or tiled view of products on the bulk ordering screen. The screen has controls to switch between these views.
Show Product Images: When switched on, this will show the product images. Images will not show when switched off. By switching this setting on, a nested setting will show to define the size of the product images on the page. The example of 80px in the image above represents the number of pixels the image will be resized to.
Show Attribute Pricing: If attributes have different pricing within the same product, this setting will show the individual prices. If the product does not have a price variation or has attributes, the price will show near the product description.
Show Product Stock: This setting will show as a new row in list view, and column in tiled view, showing the available quantity per attribute. This will also work alongside the Out of stock and Call for price rules defined in the Jim2 settings areas above. If triggered, icons for call for price or messages will show instead of a quantity.
Show ETA: Estimated time of arrivals are determined, based on product settings in the above Jim2 settings area. This feature draws from incoming purchase orders in Jim2. products that are within the ETA time threshold (defined in the Jim2 Availability > Show ETA Based on POs settings) will be added onto the available stock value. The ETA date will be shown, along with incoming quantity for product outside the threshold value.
Horizontal and Vertical Attribute Settings: These settings define the structure of the bulk ordering screen. Typically, when used in the apparel industry the size is shown as a horizontal row, allowing for quick entry for products, and the colour is set on the vertical. See example images below.
