The listing deposit refers to the process of setting up a listing on our platform, enabling vendors to showcase and offer multiple services simultaneously. To streamline this process, administrators can define standard service structures using the service template within the SBO (Service Back Office). This feature provides vendors with a predefined framework, making it easier for them to create and manage their service listings efficiently. By utilizing these templates, vendors can ensure consistency and accuracy in their service offerings while reducing the time required for setup.
To deposit a listing, users must be registered and logged into the platform. The Log In and Register options must be utilized to gain access to this feature.
In a non-switch platform configuration, only vendors can create listings.
To understand how this step is reached during the listing process creation, refer to the Rendering Type Selection (Commoditized) section in the documentation.
The user has the option to either utilize a pre-configured service template set up by the platform administrator or create a custom service.
The image below displays all configurable settings available to the administrator, allowing for the modification of various service parameters.
The process for creating a service template is described in the following documentation: Service templates (Flat Rate rendering type)
To utilize a predefined service template established by the platform administrator, the Service Template toggle must be enabled via the slider. To create a custom service, the Custom Template slider should be activated.
Users retain the option to select a service template to prefill their service details. The following fields remain editable:
Category
Title
Description
Price and Duration
Minimum and Maximum Orderable Quantity
In the Flat-Rate rendering type, SCND provides also an option for vendors to establish a subscription model that automatically charges customers at regular intervals based on the configured settings. For additional information, refer to the "Subscription" section. This function can be configured by adjusting the "Service Type" configuration in the SBO
When enabled, during the listing creation process for the Flat-Rate rendering type, a new "Service Type" checkbox will appear below the service template in the service selection section. This checkbox allows the vendor to specify whether the service should be created as a regular service, also referred to as a One-shot service, or as a subscription service.
Subscriptions service templates can also be pre-configured in the SBO.
If the subscription service type is selected, additional options will appear to configure periodic pricing. SCND supports subscription models on a weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. The subscription period is configured through the "Subscription Frequencies" configuration in the SBO
Once the service creation process is complete, the user should click "Proceed to Step 4 of 4" to advance to the next step.
The Address section allows the vendor to provide the location where the service will be performed. The following details must be entered at this step:
Country (dropdown field)
City (mandatory)
ZIP Code
Street Number
Street Name
If the full address is not mandatory on the listing, the user can click on the arrow icon in order to hide the ZIP, Number, and Route.
The “Confirm Address” checks the information and displays the location on the right-hand map.
At the conclusion of the listing deposit process, the user must check the "I accept the Terms and Conditions" checkbox and select either "Publish your listing" or "Save as a draft". Choosing "Save as a draft" will create the listing without publishing it, and it will be marked as "Hidden" in the user's Dashboard.
The user can read the listing information entered through his dashboard.
Path: Dashboard > Listing > Name of the listing > Presentation
This page is described in detail in the article:
During the listing deposit process, the user can update the listing’s information by clicking “Back to step X” (figure 10). This redirects the user to the previous step in which he can edit the previously entered information.
The offeror can also update the listing’s translations manually via the language icon (figure 11.1).
The user then selects the desired language through a list of available languages (figure 11.2).
An automatic translation is set up by default. Any non-manually translated fields are automatically translated.
Once the listing deposit process is done, the user can set additional information such as the calendar, seasonal price, etc through their dashboard described in the related article: Listings dashboard (Time-Based rendering type) - Edit
Users cannot delete a listing during the listing deposit process as it is not published yet. They can, however, interrupt the deposit process. When it happens, in the SBO the listing will be tagged as a Draft Status.
A published listing can be deleted through the listing user’s dashboard: Listings dashboard (Basic solution) - Delete a listing
