If necessary, enter an alternative name or translation for components in the name and key fields. Find out more about working with components and attributes.

Check brands at “Basic data > Properties > Brands”.

Assign your brands to the channel brands. If necessary you can enter an alternative name or a channel-specific brand key. Find out more about brands and the brand creation here.

3. Templates

Check title profiles at “Basic data > Templates > Title profiles”.

Check row “X-13: Title profile” on your Channel Sheet to find out whether your channel uses title profiles.

5. Prices

Check the surcharges and discounts at “Basic data > Prices > Surcharges/Discounts”.

You can configure channel-specific surcharges and discounts there.

Check base prices at “Basic data > Prices > Base prices”.

See the row “X-02: Base prices” on your Channel Sheet to find out whether you have to provide base prices for your channel.

If you need base prices, check whether the required units are available at “Basic data > Prices > Units”.

Create them if necessary and add the corresponding keys. When you’ve created new units, assign them under “Basic data > Prices > Base prices”, so TB.One can perform valid calculations during export. Find more information on base prices here.

6. Payment, Payment Types, and Payment Service Providers

Check the payment types at “Basic data > Payment > Payment types”.

After the channel has been activated, the necessary payment types and the payment methods are also created and activated automatically. For some channels, this happens when the first order is placed. You can find out how to set up payment methods here.

Configure payment service providers at “Basic data > Payment > Payment service provider”.

You can create the required payment service providers in this menu.

7. Shipping

Channels have different requirements for your shipments. Find details on the respective Channel Sheet in Section G. You can find an overview of the order processing settings here.

Configure the shipping types for each channel at “Basic data > Shipping > Shipping types”.

By default, the shipping type “DHL standard parcel” is assigned to each article. For a guide on the creation of shipping types, click here.

Activate package types at “Basic data > Shipping > Package types”.

Create a new package type if necessary. This page shows how to create package types.

8. Returns
