Watch the video to see how to convert a Product to live.

Once you have contacted a Supplier to find the costs and dimensions of the Product, and then you have had your Product validated by our expert team, it’s time to convert it to a live product so that you can raise a shipping order.

You will need to have your SKU ready, cost price and product measurements to hand, in order to convert your Product.

From your list of Researched Products, choose the Product you are converting and click on view.

...

The Product you are converting will need to have a status of Initial.
