[4] Extra Details Any Extra details that you would like in your file are fine to add. If you want a notification to go to specific buyers, then you can include their address. If you just want the notifications to go to a set address (can be multiple), there is no need to send it, I can just hard code it in for you.--When the p.o. is accepted through our software, the Dot system will send an message that we received the p.o.

[5] How the PO’s get to Dot We will set up a folder on our server that you would be able to FTP your orders directly into from your system (if you wanted to copy and paste you can too...we have one distributor who chose to do that) All Po's can be in one file if you want, or you can send a separate file for each PO...we don't care which.
