Pre-Matched Data, Batch/Proof Setup

The following instructions are intended for studios using image matching programs other than our own QR Code and Opticon Image Matching software such as Photolynx’s Flow Software.

Before you begin if you’re a new user of OPS, you should have your Stripe account setup completed and Stripe’s Live Keys pasted into your OPS payment page. Also having your OPS price list setup and ready for ordering before going live with your project is also recommended. 

Getting Started

Please double check your .CSV file’s data and make sure it contains a minimum of the following data columns, First Name, Last Name, Ticketcode and or Student ID, Image Name (with .jpg extensions).  Teacher, Grade, and Homeroom columns are optional, but we do recommend having data in the Teacher or Homeroom columns depending on how you are shooting your Group Photos. Also getting the parents email addresses from the school included with the school data is extremely helpful in using OPS’s email marketing program on notifying parents about their child’s photos being posted for review and purchase.
