In order to purchase many products from many vendors, they can either go to add those products to a single shopping cart or go to each vendor’s store and check out in separate carts.

For Sellers

After logging into Seller Cpanel, sellers will be led to Advanced Report in Dashboard immediately.

Also, they can view order details such as order ID, best seller, and most viewed products. The advanced report shows data in a smart chart for later analysis.

In particular, social media integration makes it possible for sellers to optimize SEO. They can link their store to their accounts on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+, Youtube, LinkedIn, Vimeo, and Pinterest. Sellers are allowed to make any changes at any time they want and they will be updated in their frontend store automatically.

Manage Sales

As for Sales section, sellers can track all details of Orders, Invoice, and Amount Transaction in the table as well as print them out in PDF.

Manage Catalog

Catalog section is the place where sellers can add and manage all products sold on marketplace platform. Simple Product, Virtual Product, and Configurable Product are all supported and sellers can add those types by themselves without waiting for admin permission. Likewise, sellers are able to enable and disable any products anytime they want within a single click.

Add Product

The process of adding a new product is simple and it is super easy to config. Also, there is not much difference among 3 types of products. Sellers will define the newly added products in terms of Attribute Set, Name, SKU, Price, Tax Class, Quantity, Stock Status as well as Contents, Images, SEO, Related Product, Design, Gift Options. Now, let’s take Simple Product as an example.

When you add a new single product, the first thing you want to do is add it to a specific Attribute Set to make it searchable in a product category. All you have to do is click on the name of the attribute set in the drop-down menu that your product belongs to. Then, you can name the product, enter SKU number and price.

In particular, in order to run a special promotion program, you can set up in Advanced Pricing. Calendar gadget makes it easy to schedule a specific date for the program. Also, by applying special price for a lot of products in Tier Price section, you can encourage your customers to purchase more. You are equipped to control which website or customer group is applicable. The best part is Tier Price value can be added as many as you want in a set period of time. In other words, Tier Price can be applied to many websites as well as many customer groups. Plus, you can delete every single Tier Price with a click. In case your target customers are also retailers, you can enter a value in Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price.

Next, define if your single product is taxable or not.

Then, enter Quantity section. Otherwise, go to Advanced Inventory to customize more details for your new single product. Here, you can either manage and add your own values or use Config Settings.

Next step is to set Stock Status, Weight, and Visibility. As for Categories setting, you can select from the drop-down menu or add a new category that you single product belongs to. Plus, you are able to set the product as New for a specific period of time to catch your customers’ attention.

Then, expand Contents and Image. Here, you can add Description, Short Description, and upload product image.

Besides uploading CSV file, sellers will need to customize import behavior to avoid unwanted errors while importing such as Import Behavior, Error Handling, Field Separator, and Multiple Value Separator.
