Managing merchants

Edit on GitHub

This topic describes how to manage merchant records.

To start working with merchants, go to Marketplace > Merchants.


Creating a merchant

To create a merchant:

  1. On the Overview of Merchants page, click Add Merchant in the top right corner of the page.
  2. On the Create Merchant page, enter a name of the merchant and click Save.

That’s it. Now you have the merchant created.

In a non-marketplace environment, the Merchant record is the record of the company which sells goods and is the only one in the system.

Editing a merchant

To edit a merchant:

  1. On the Overview of Merchants page, you click Edit in the Actions column for a specific merchant.
  2. On the Edit Merchant page, change the merchant name and click Save.

Deactivating a merchant

To deactivate a merchant, next to the merchant you want to deactivate, select Deactivate.

This refreshes the page with the success message displayed. The status of the merchant is Inactive.

Activating a merchant

To activate a merchant, next to the merchant you want to activate, select Activate.

This refreshes the page with the success message displayed. The status of the merchant is Active.

Next steps**

Once you have the merchant record available in the system, you can proceed with creating a merchant relation.

See Managing Merchant Relations to know how you create those.
