Omnyfy has a variety of configurations that can be managed through the back end interface of the platform. This consists of a variety of standard Magento configurations, and custom settings based on the Marketplace.

To make it easy to walk through, we have developed a checklist for what you need to set up the a marketplace from the base installation of an out of the box instance.

Before starting, some things you may also need are third party pre-requisites, for various services for the Marketplace. This can be done before or during the configuration process (see the step by step guides) but are handled outside of Omnyfy:

• Payment Methods (eg Stripe, Paypal or other payment method accounts)
  This is used for Customer Payments, Vendor Payouts and Vendor Subscription Plans (if applicable - note Stripe is the only payment method available currently for Vendor Subscription Plans that require payments).
  
  

• Google Account
  This is used for Google Maps, and can be used to also track Google Analytics, as well as Google reCaptcha
  
  

• Shipping Accounts
  This may be needed to set up integrated shipping methods such as Easyship, HDS or Sherpa. If you are only using a Flat Rate for all shipments, this is not necessary for configuring the platform right now.
  
  

• Porto Purchase Code
  This is used during the configuration (step 3) and is required to activate the Porto Theme.
  
  

• Other Third Party Licenses (as needed)
  When installing other modules that are not Omnyfy and not included in the default suite, you may need a license/activation key. Some of these extensions will vary depending on the provider, so please ensure you double check before going live.

Vendor Onboarding Preparation

This section refers to setting up Vendor types and configurations for the marketplace. You can see the guidelines here:

https://support.omnyfy.com/portal/en/kb/vendor-management

The most important settings to set up first (before you onboard any vendors) are vendor settings.

1. Manage and create Vendor Types

2. Create Vendor Subscriptions in Omnyfy

3. Creating a Subscription product in Stripe (for paid Vendor Subscriptions only)

4. Managing Vendor Attributes

5. Managing Vendor Attribute Sets

6. Managing Location Attributes (only in Omnyfy v2)

7. Managing Location Attribute Sets (only in Omnyfy v2)

These need to be set up first. Products, Categories and general content can be done after.

Other Settings

These settings can be left as default, unless otherwise needing a customisation for these features:

The above list will get you through the majority of the set up for an out of the box marketplace. Each marketplace will be configured uniquely, so there will be other settings that will apply only to your marketplace, however you can browse through the rest of our guides for specific features, for further information.
