The SimplePhoto Lab Bridge system allows labs to upload DP2 jobs to SimplePhoto online galleries and download SimplePhoto orders into DP2. The SimplePhoto Lab Bridge consists of two applications - the Gallery Upload program and the Order Import program.
Every lab customer who will be using the Lab Bridge must have a SimplePhoto account. SimplePhoto uses the DP2 Customer ID to route galleries into the proper SimplePhoto account. The DP2 Customer ID must be setup in the "Lab Account Number" inside SimplePhoto's Photographer Information settings page.
When the "Lab Image Storage" solution is used by the lab... only orders placed in galleries uploaded using the Lab Bridge will be sent to the Lab Bridge for fulfillment. The normal workflow is for the lab to import a job into DP2, then use the Lab Bridge to upload the job to SimplePhoto.
SimplePhoto also has a "Cloud Image Storage" solution that enables automated fulfillment for any high resolution images uploaded to SimplePhoto (not just images uploaded using the Lab Bridge). This solution will allow photographers to upload high resolution images directly to SimplePhoto and have online orders sent directly to your lab for fulfillment.
