This article is intended to be a step-by-step guide for vendors using the Odyssey platform to manage their products or offerings for the Idaho Marketplace.
1. Accessing Dashboard:
Vendors can start by logging into their dashboard.
2. Setting up Payment Integration:
If not done already, vendors need to set up Stripe for processing transactions.
3. Providing Offerings:
Click on "Provide Offerings" in the dashboard menu.
4. Adding Offerings:
Vendors have two options here:
- Option 1: Go to the catalog and download the CSV template to add multiple items.
- Option 2: Stay on the page to add one offering at a time. Please note that only one can be uploaded at a time.
5. Using CSV Template (Optional):
For each offering, provide the following information in the CSV:
-
- Unique identifier (Each purchase is assigned a unique ID)
- Product Name
- Description
- Inventory levels
- Cost
- Images (Images are mandatory)
- Uploading CSV:
- Once all information is filled in, upload the CSV file.
Additional Notes:
- This process is similar to platforms like Shopify, Magento, and WordPress.
- Vendors should remember to include shipping costs in their pricing calculations.
