Manage products

This document describes how to manage abstract and concrete products.

To start managing products, go to Catalog > Products.

Activating products

The abstract product is inactive until at least one product variant is activated. There is no other option to activate the abstract product.

To activate a product:

1. Navigate to the product variant of the product that you want to activate: Edit > Variants > Edit product variant.
2. In the top right corner of the Edit Concrete Product page, click Activate. The product turns visible to the customers of your marketplace.

Tips & tricks
If you want to hide the product variant from your customers, you deactivate it using the same procedure as for activating the product. This deactivates only the product variant. The abstract product is active until at least one its variant is active.

Approving and denying marketplace products

To make the newly created products visible on the Storefront, the marketplace administrator should approve them. If the marketplace administrator does not want to display the products on the Storefront, they deny the products.

To update the approval status of the product, in the Actions column of the abstract product do the following:

• For the product with status Waiting for Approval:

  • click Approve to approve the product.
  • click Deny to reject the product.

• For the product with status Approved, click Deny to reject the product.

• For the product with status Denied, click Approve to approve the product.
