Channel-ready checklist: the last round before publishing

Audio narration · listen first

When a product is called "ready to publish," people think only of photos, but the list is longer. Someone who knows the order of draft, review, approval and publish catches the missing field before the customer sees it.

In this part

  • You learn the order of the draft, review, approval and publish steps.
  • You gather the fields to check before publishing into one list: attributes, variants and barcodes, images, language, measurements, composition, price and stock.
  • You understand that a product should not go live before it moves from sample to bulk.
  • After publishing, you read returns and customer questions as feedback on the content.

At the top of the product card you see the product's latest status, the sample versus bulk distinction, the stock code, the ERP stock code and the product QR code. This is where you read which stage the product is at before publishing.
