1. Lineal items sold by the foot or to nearest 1/16" can be calculated automatically using the "LENGTH:" syntax in the "Options" field.

2. "LENGTH:" syntax will prompt the program to read the number of inches in parentheses and use that value to increase the base price of the item.

3. The "Price" field must contain the price of the item for one lineal foot. LENGTH will NOT work if price is in Length option, such as Plus Pricing in Length option.
A. "2 feet (24")" will cause program to take amount in "Price" field / 12 x 24.
B. "LENGTH:" pricing method can be used in junction with Baseprice.

4. For items available in whole feet and/Inches and fractional inches, the following should be used at the beginning of the option lines in the "Options" field.
A. "LENGTH: Feet & Inches" "Select one"
"1 FOOT (12")"
"1 Foot 1 inch (13")"
"1 foot 2 inches (14")" and so on.

B. "LENGTH: Fractional Inch" "Select one"
"1/16""
"2/8""
"3/16""
"1/4"" and so on

5. For items available in only whole feet and inches, the following should be used at the beginning of the option line in the "Options" field.
A. "LENGTH: Length" "Select one"
"1 FOOT (12")"
"1 Foot 1 inch (13")"
"1 foot 2 inches (14")" and so on.

B. The feet & inches syntax cannot be used, because that syntax prompts the program to look for a fractional amount to add to the baseprice. An error will occur and the cart will not work properly.

6. For lineal items that cannot utilize the "LENGTH:" pricing method can still appear similar to our customers, we only have to change the syntax.
A. For a lineal item priced using plus pricing (+) available to the nearest 1/16" will have the following at the beginning of each option line in the "Options" field.
(1) "Feet & Inches" "Select one"
"1 FOOT (12")"
"1 Foot 1 inch (13")"
"1 foot 2 inches (14")" and so on.
(2) "Fraction of an Inch" "Select one"
"1/16""
"2/8""
"3/16""
"1/4"" and so on

B. For a lineal item priced using plus pricing (+) available in whole feet and inches will have the following at the beginning of the option line in the "Options" field:
"Length" "Select one"
"1 FOOT (12")"
"1 Foot 1 inch (13")"
"1 foot 2 inches (14")" and so on

7. The text for the "LENGTH:" pricing method can be found online.
