Admin Availability

Grow features a product availability tool that allows Market Manager to view what Producers have listed for sale in the current and previous Periods, and in the current Period:

1.  Adjust the Products setup of listed products (selling units, product images, etc.)

2.  Adjust the quantities and producer prices of listed products

3.  Set specific customer prices for products by Price Level

4.  Hide specific product selling units by Price Level

Adjusting Listed Products

Grow allows Market Managers to edit Producer's listed products without navigating to the specific Producer's profile.  By clicking on the name of the listed product you can edit images, tag-lines and descriptions, selling units, sub-periods and product attributes all from the Availability Report.

By clicking on the listed quantities of the product, Market Managers can adjust the producer price (unit price) and quantity available for listed products.

Setting Specific Prices and Hiding Selling Units

Grow eliminates the need for the old percentage-based price markup for products, and allows Market Managers to enter the price they'd like to charge customers for specific products.  To fix pricing for a particular product, first select the Price Level you'd like to see, and then click the Unit Price or Customer Price for that product.

Then, in the Pricing pop-out, you'll see all of the Customer prices (by Price Level) for that selling unit.  You can hide the selling unit from Price Levels (so that it won't appear on the storefront when Customers assigned to that Price Level sign in) as well as setting a specific customer price for a price level by checking the "Fixed" box, which then allows you to enter your own custom price for that Price Level.

Featured Products on the Storefront

This setting allows market managers to "feature" specific listed producer products at the top of their product list, and on Product pages and the Order Confirmation page.

Checking this box, will move the product to the top of the products page, where it will appear in the "Featured Products" category.  The name of this category is editable in the Site Setup>Storefront & Order Messages>Storefront>Featured Products Text.

The featured product(s) then appear underneath this text at the top of the Product List, and on Product pages and the Order Confirmation page.

Featured products will remain featured until the "Featured Product" setting is manually un-checked in the Admin-->Availability page, and will appear in the Featured Product section as long as it's listed in the period.  Market managers can view only featured products in the Admin Availability page by checking the "Show Featured Only" setting.

If you're featuring multiple products, products will sort within the Featured Product category via the Category-->Sub-category-->Product sorting scheme of the site.

Export

The Product Availability table can be exported as a CSV file by clicking the "Export Availability Table" link in the top menu.  To hide Unit Prices (Producer Cost) from the export just check the relevant box.
