To set up your photo and vase options, go to Settings → Order Management and open Accessories. This opens a popup with two categories: Photos and Vases.
Whatever you configure here will appear as selectable options inside the New Quote popup when you add accessories to an order.
Tip: Inside both the Photos and Vases tabs you can sort the list by cost or size. This makes it easier to find a specific variant when you have many of them.
Photos
MonuDesk comes with preloaded photo options already set up. Each photo has a Shape (oval, heart, rectangle, round, or cross), a size, and a mode. To add a new one, click + Add Variant on the right side of the screen.
Shape: select the shape of the photo: oval, heart, rectangle, round, cross, square/diamond, or domed.
Material: each photo now also has a material type, so you can record what the photo is made of. Pick the material that matches this option.
Size: type or search the size you want. For example, type 2x3 to mean 2 inches by 3 inches. You can select an existing size from the dropdown or create a new size by typing it in and pressing the “Use (the size you entered)” button to use it.
Note: You cannot type the inch symbol ("). Use numbers and the letter X only. For example, type 2x6 not 2"x6".
Mode: select Black and White, Color, or Sepia. These are the only two modes available. If you need additional modes, please contact support or submit it as feedback on our roadmap.
Price: the price that will be shown when this photo size is selected inside the New Quote popup.
Vendor Cost: your cost from the vendor. This will be used in an upcoming module where you can track costs on your orders.
Enabled / Disabled: toggle to show or hide this option in the New Quote popup without deleting it.
Delete: click the delete button on the right side to permanently remove the option. This will not affect your existing orders that already use it.
Vases
Vases are organized into three categories: Bronze Vase, Granite Vase, and Metal Vase. All come with preloaded options.To add a new vase, click + Add Variant on the right side under the category you want.
Style: select from Fluted, VA (Veteran), Tapered, Turned, or Lawn Flush.
Size: select an existing size from the dropdown or type in a new one to create it. You can enter any size, including custom dimensions like 2” x 2” or 22” x 22”.
Price: the price shown to the customer in the New Quote popup.
Vendor Cost: your cost from the vendor.
Enabled / Disabled: toggle to show or hide this option without deleting it.
Delete: permanently remove the option. Existing orders are not affected.
Vase colors: under the Granite Vase, Bronze Vase, and Metal Vase categories you can set up colors. Previously only granite vases supported this; Bronze and Metal vases now support colors too. Enable or disable individual colors, give each color its own price, and use the color search to find a finish fast. Then, when someone adds a vase to an order, they pick the color and its price fills in automatically, so there is no need to enter it as a custom vase.
Saving your changes
When you're done, click Save Changes at the bottom right of the popup. If you click off the popup without saving, your changes will be dismissed.
