You will need to assign the document(s) to each item that they correspond to in UltraCart. Since they are all uploaded in into the digital library you only need to upload it one time there to use it in multiple itemscan link them to multiple items.

Configuring your digital delivery items with a weight of zero ("0.00") will cause UltraCart to treat the item as a non shippable item.

  Please read the section on Digital Library to upload your files (Upload files) as you will need to add your media into the library before it is made available as a choice in the Digital Delivery area.

You can customize the content of the digital delivery email notification sent to the customer by selecting the "Digital Delivery" template from the drop down menu. This notification is sent out to the customer after the payment for their order has been processed. So orders that go into the "Pre-orders" and "Accounts Receivable" departments will not have sent the digital delivery notification.
