How to set up Tactical Gear Distributors ordering in Trinity

Tactical Gear Distributors has no API. Trinity sends your purchase orders by email to your sales rep. There are no keys or passwords to request; what matters is that the email addresses are right, because that is exactly where your orders go.

What to ask your rep

• The email address they want purchase orders sent to.
• Their name, so orders are addressed to the right person.

Where it goes in Trinity

1. In your admin, open Shipping & FFL > Distributors.
2. Press Configure next to Tactical Gear Distributors. The Tactical Gear Distributors Settings page opens.
3. Enter the rep's address in Rep email address and their name in Rep name.
4. Put your own orders or support address in CC email for order copies, so you keep a copy of every purchase order.
5. Press Save Settings.

Test it before going live

1. Put your own address in Rep email address first.
2. Turn ordering on and place a test order.
3. Check that the purchase order arrives and reads correctly.
4. Then change Rep email address to the real rep and save.

A wrong address here means orders go nowhere and nobody notices, so the test is worth the few minutes.
