Vendor Statuses¶

Vendors can have one of the following statuses:

• New—when a customer applies for a vendor account, the newly-created vendor gets this status. The administrator can either approve, or reject the application by changing the vendor’s status.

  Note

  Once you change a vendor’s status, you can’t set it back to New.

• Active—vendor’s administrators can work in the administration panel of the store. The products of an active vendor appear in the store, unless they require prior approval.

  Note

  When the administrator creates a vendor, the status of that vendor is set to Active.

• Disabled—vendor’s products won’t appear in the store, and vendor’s administrators won’t be able to log in to the Administration panel.

• Pending—vendor’s administrators can work in the Administration panel of the store, but the vendor’s products don’t appear in the store.
