This topic covers the following information pertaining to the retailer. Click on a link below to jump to the desired section.

Logging into the Registry

From the Registry homepage, click on Login and enter your user credentials.

Configure Store Information

The main use of the store information section is for you to enter the information that will appear on your site. The information entered generally appears in the header/footer of all pages of the site.
For multi-store sites:
- You should fill this detail out for all stores you have configured on the site.
- Clicking store info at the top of the page will show detail for all stores setup on the site. Information from the active store will be used for the header/footer of each page.
Access Store Information by clicking on Content->Store Information

Store information is configured/modified by selecting a store, entering the appropriate data in the Location, Information, Hours tabs, and then clicking on Save.
Fill in the fields on the following tabs: Location, Information, and Hours
- Location tab: Note: This also appears at the bottom of the page when clicking on the Store Info link.

- Information tab:
- - The header format will determine how your store name or logo is shown at top of each page. You can choose to show your store name, logo, or both.
  - If you chose to show a logo, you can add/replace the logo on this tab.
  - The About Store should be filled in and will appear at the bottom of each page.

- Hours tab:
- - This also appears when clicking the Store Info link at the top of the page.
  - Note: If each day of the week has different store hours, all days will be listed. If some days have the same store hours, iNet will combine them intelligently when displaying to customers.

Configure the Carousel

The Carousel scrolls across the screen and can be used to direct consumers to specific products, events, or even project lists (i.e. building a deck). Configuring the Carousel is optional and can be accessed by clicking on Content->Carousel.

If items have been added to the Carousel previously, they will display in the grid. You can also display the list by clicking on List Carousel Items. To add a new item, click on the Add Item button.

Fill in the fields for the Carousel item.
- Title – The title of the Carousel Item

To edit the carousel item, click the Edit button next to the item you wish to edit.

Make the necessary changes, and click Save.

To delete a carousel item, locate the item you wish to delete and click the Delete button .

You will see a dialog asking to Confirm or Cancel. Click on the appropriate button.

Configure Pages

This function allows you to display links to other pages on your registry. You can configure this by clicking on Content->Pages. If there are any pages currently linked to the registry, they will display in the grid. You can also click on List Pages to display the linked pages. Here are a few examples:
- Display links to custom pages you create on your registry site. (i.e. An “about us” page with some detail about your store.
- Display links to external pages (such as a non-registry home page if you have one)
- Display links to existing pages on your registry site. (Such as a contact page, or to a specific project…)

To add a custom page, click on Add Custom Page on the left side of the screen and fill in the following fields:
- Name—The Name of the page.
- Link Title—The Title of the link.
- Link Location—Where is the link located on the page?
- There are two types of custom page you can load (controlled by link location).
- - Footer Links—These appear at the bottom of the site.
  - Project instructions – Used by a merchant defined project as the instructions for that project. You will need to create the custom page first, and then go add/edit their project and select the custom page to use.
- You can embed a YouTube video in a custom page:
- - Find the video on YouTube.
  - Click Share
  - Choose Embed and copy the code from YouTube.
  - Add a custom page in iNet, and change the Source tab for the custom content, then paste the code from YouTube.
- Note it is also possible to embed images, however non-iNet integrated customers will need to host the images on another (secure/https) site and then reference them from iNet.

Configure email

To configure email, click on Configuration->E-Mail

Click on Email Settings, set the values for E-Mail Signature & E-Mail Signature Format, and click Save Changes (editing this is optional).
- This is a similar concept to editing your e-mail signature format in outlook. It’s mainly just text that appears at the bottom of your e-mail
- iNet will automatically fill out the store name, address and phone number from the database, so there will be a nice looking default .
- An example of a possible change would be to add a tagline either before/after the address info ( i.e. “ABC hardware, helping customers since 1967”) if you want it to appear on all e-mail sent from your registry site.

Click on List Addresses. Use the edit button to modify the configuration (if necessary).

Modify the email address for each store by clicking on the dropdown arrow in the store field. Click the Save button when finished.

Add a new address by clicking on Add Address, then select each store (if multi-store) from the dropdown, fill in the fields, and click on Save.

Advanced Configuration

This area contains some settings somewhat similar to Eagle options. There’s a lot more on a full iNet site, however for a registry standalone site there are still a number of things Epicor has made configurable.
Epicor has selected default values believed to work well for the majority of merchants.
Access Advanced Configuration by clicking on Configuration->Advanced

To execute a Configuration Test, click on the link on the left hand side of the screen. If everything is set correctly, you will receive a message stating “No system errors found.”
This test does a few things:
- A number of internal health checks, which should always pass.
- A test of iNet’s ability to communicate with Eagle. This can fail if:
- - Customer’s internet is down
  - Customer’s IP address has changed
  - Customer’s Eagle is down, running maintenance, or in quiet mode.
  - Configuration issues--such as Eagle NTA setup or the customers firewall.

When users sign up for an account, iNet will create an iNet(web) user and an Eagle Customer Maintenance (MCR) account. The default customer settings are used by iNet when creating that MCR account.
- Most settings directly map to Customer Maintenance (MCR). They can be left blank, and if supplied will be used when iNet creates the account.
- Update account codes are used by iNet user admin if adding an iNet web user for a pre-existing MCR account – iNet will update the user codes on that MCR account based on this setting
- Starting customer number is used to determine what customer number is used for the MCR account iNet creates –first “free” number after the starting number will be used.
- If you would like to enter/modify the default customer settings, click on the Default Customer Settings link on the left hand side of the screen. Fill in the appropriate fields and click Save Changes.
