Managing Site Content

Znode Storefront includes a built-in content management (CMS) feature that allows you to create static content pages such as "privacy policy" or "shipping information". The administrator can then edit these content pages easily using the included content editor. You can add any type of content to these pages including text, images and rich media. The content management feature also includes "revisions" for each content page that will allow you to rollback the content to a previous version if required.

Global Storefront Settings

Easily manage global store settings such as payment options, shipping rules, taxes, email settings and more using the storefront administration tool. You can also setup account information for 3rd party services such as Shipping Services (FedEx/UPS) and Merchant Gateways (Authorize.net, Verisign, etc).

Reporting

Znode Storefront uses the SQL Report Viewer to generate common reports. The generated reports also allows you to export to formats such as PDF and Excel. You can modify the reporting area easily to add your own custom reports. Note that creation of custom reports requires technical knowledge.
