This information applies to FTD Mercury X2 Fall and later versions, Mercury Connect, and Mercury Direct 5.0 and later versions.
The Preferred Status window is used to select the preferred status for a florist. There are four status choices available:
- First Choice (sometimes called "Always Use" florists)
- Preferred
- Normal
- Do Not Use
NOTE: You can have multiple First Choice florists in a city.
First Choice florists, if any, appear at the top of any florist search results, followed by Preferred florists, Normal florists, and Do Not Use florists; if you have multiple florists in a city marked with the same preferred status, they are ordered based on secondary sorting criteria.
If you select Do Not Use as the status for a florist, that florist will not display when selecting a florist from an order (based on recipient information), nor will they be available if you autoselect a florist for an order. The only way you can change the status for a florist who is already marked as Do Not Use is to run a general Florist Search for the city where the florist is located.
After you click Save, the Florist Search window will automatically update to reflect your change.
