Summary

The Storefronts App is where you can pause and un-pause your storefronts and can be accessed from the homepage.

Storefronts App Layout

The Storefronts App has two main sections: (1) storefront list, and (2) function side panel*.

Note: *You will only see the pause, un-pause and busy mode options if this permission has been given to your account.

 

The Storefronts List

Storefront list contains storefront cards grouped by brands. Within each storefront card, accounts with the pause/un-pause permissions can

  1. Pause and un-pause a storefront inline
  2. Multi-select storefronts (to trigger bulk operation through side panel)
  3. Select the brand (to trigger bulk operation for all storefronts within the brand through side panel)

The Storefronts Function Panel

The Storefronts Function Panel, located on the right-hand side of the screen, will indicate the actions you are able to take for each of the storefronts. If these options are not available, it indicates that these functionality permissions have not been granted to your account.

Processes 

Expand the sections below to learn how to perform each of the functionalities on the Storefronts App.
