How to configure your webstore
Having a webstore of your own can bring you many advantages: it is accessible 24 hours a day, you can attract customers from all accross the World, and it is a very cost-effective method of selling goods. Use Key-Business to activate your webstore, and to configure its most important settings.
Integral parts of Key-Business are the webstore itself, and the associated synchronization mechanisms (the communication between the databases of the webstore and Key-Business).
For launching your own webstore, the first step is Activation. Go to Maintenance Webstore connection. In the presenting window you can see that your webstore is inactive.
Click on the Activate button, and you will get to the parameterizing window of the webstore.
After activation, your next step is to configure the basics of your webstore.
Credentials: these data can be modified by clicking on thebutton.
