Get started with the new Shop
Find your way around the Store Portal and set up your shop in a sensible order
The Shop replaces the old Uniform Shop. You manage it in the Store Portal, where you set up products, track stock, pack orders and choose how families collect their items.
Before you start
- You need a Shop Manager or Fulfilment Manager role for your shop. See Store Portal roles and access.
- Sign in to the Supplier Portal as you normally do.
Open the Store Portal
- In the Supplier Portal menu, select Store portal. This opens the Store Portal.
- If you manage more than one shop, make sure the right one is selected. Use Supplier Portal at the bottom of the Store Portal menu to go back and change it.
- You land on Storefront, the page where you control what shoppers see.
Note: If you don't see Store portal in the Supplier Portal menu, your shop hasn't been moved to the new Shop yet.

- Create your products. Start with Create a standard product, then try variants and bundles.
- Add stock by turning on Track inventory and entering Stock on hand on each product.
- Set up online ordering under Online ordering. See Online ordering settings overview.
- Publish your products when you're ready. Products you save as drafts stay hidden from customers.
