Admin Panel Guide
The Admin Panel is where you configure the application, manage your subscription, and control which products offer the custom suit building experience.

Drop Ship Products
The Drop Ship Products tab allows you to browse the master supplier catalog and integrate products directly into your store. It is divided into two main sections: the Available tab and the Imported tab.
General Navigation & Tools
- Search & Filter: Use the search bar to find products quickly, or use drop-down filters to browse through specific categories.
- View Modes: Toggle between a detailed Tile View or a streamlined List View.
- Selection Capabilities: Select individual products (multiple selection) using checkboxes, or select everything on the current screen using the "select all in page" option.
- Pagination: Browse seamlessly through pages to review more products in our extensive catalog.
Available Tab
This tab displays our master supplier catalog. Here, you can examine products, view wholesale costs, define your preferred retail price, and import them directly to your Shopify store.
Imported Tab
The Imported tab manages all the drop ship products you've already added to your storefront. This is your command center for managing stock and pricing over time.
- Status & Synchronicity: Each product displays its Imported status. If a product goes out of stock or undergoes a price change on the master store, its status will be reflected here. This alerts store owners to take action, such as hiding out-of-stock items or republishing restocked items.
- Price Management: Track your store's retail price against the imported master cost. You have the option to update your store price directly from this tab to match market conditions.
- Bulk & Selected Actions: Manage your inventory efficiently using the dropdown action menus. Perform Bulk Actions to apply systemic updates (e.g., hiding all out-of-stock products at once, or publishing all restocked items) or perform Selected Actions specifically on the products you checked manually (e.g., set selected to Active, Draft, or Remove them entirely).
Drop Ship Orders
Navigate to the Drop Ship Orders section to manage orders that require fulfillment from the Supplier. Here you can track various stages:
- New Orders: View orders received but not yet submitted to the supplier. Using the "Submit Order" action will process the order and move it to the "Processing" stage.
- Processing: Orders that have been submitted to the supplier. This tab tracks live statuses such as "Processing" or "Shipped". Once an order is shipped, the tracking number will be displayed here.
- Completed: Orders that have been successfully delivered to the customer and are considered final.
Open Supplier Site: Use this option to open the supplier platform directly. You will need to complete order payments there, and you can also track deeper status events on the supplier portal.
