Premium version settings

All the vendors in the shop can organize their own products directly in their reserved area logging to the site through their access credentials.
However, you have the chance to limit the number of products they can place in the site enabling in “YITH Plugins -> Multi Vendor -> Vendors” the “Enable product amount limit” field and inserting an amount limit.

As the default, products connected to vendors are displayed both in vendor’s detail page and in WooCommerce file archive pages. In any event, this behavior can be changed by activating “Product listings” option. In this case, users will have access to products only in the vendor’s detail page. We suggest you insert YITH Vendor List widget to simplify the research to users.

Skip admin review

Every new product can be directly published by the vendor or only after the administrator’s review. If you think your approval isn’t essential you can enable “Skip admin review” option.

It is a general option which is valid for all vendors registered in the shop. However, you can set a different behavior for each vendor by enabling or disabling the same field in vendor’s configuration page. (For more details about vendor’s detail settings browse this page).

Assign products manually

The super administrator can associate the product with the vendor manually in two different ways:

• singularly: the vendor is selected in edit product page
• in a massive way: after selecting all the products, select the vendor after clicking on “Edit” from“Bulk Actions” menu.

To give vendors the chance to generate coupons to be applied only to their shop products, enable “Enable coupon management” option.

Now, a new section “Coupon” will be available for each vendor in the administration area.

For further information about everything concerning the vendor’s management area, please browse this page.

Activating the Review management option, vendors will be able to manage all the reviews of the products they own from the administrative area.

If the setting is enabled, each vendor can manage product reviews directly in the “Comments” section in his/her reserved area.

For further information about everything concerning the vendor’s reserved area, please browse this page.

Activating the “Enable order management option”, vendors will be free to manage their orders regardless of the administrators.

In the administration side, every order registered in the shop is divided in a number of suborders equal to the number of vendors related to at least one of the products in the order.

Otherwise, the vendor could check only the related suborder (side vendor order management is active).

By enabling the automatic synchronization, the parent order status updates when editing the suborder and vice-versa, even if you don’t enable order management for vendors.

To allow each vendor to manage refunds in their orders, it is essential to activate the “Order refund management” option.

Refunds will be applied following the classic WooCommerce system: you need to go to the order detail page and set the amount of the refund for the single product of the order total.

When vendors add a refund in an order, this also visible to the administrators of the shop, with the related recalculation of the commissions.
