Registration fields

Registration fields are fields presented to the vendor when they register. Access the setting by going to Garnet > Setting gear > Registration fields.

They are usually collected by the marketplace to decide if the vendors are fit to sell with the marketplace.

Vendor approval step

When turned on, vendors will need your approval before being able to to list new products on your marketplace. Vendors will only be able to create a product when their account is set up.

Create or edit a field

Click Add a registration field or select a field to open the editor.

Registration edit view

Request during registration

Tick this box to have the field show up during the registration step. As a rule of thumb, fields in the registration page should help the marketplace decide whether the vendor is fit to work with the marketplace.

Show in artist page

Tick this box to have the field editable in the vendor page. Tick this box if you intend to display the information on your shop, or if you intend to use as internal purpose (such as the tax ID for the marketplace's accounting).

Required

Fields can be marked as Required. Vendors will need to fill these fields in order to complete the form.

Registration description

The registration description will be displayed in a lighter shade of grey below the fields. It can be used to indicate additional information to help the vendor fill the necessary information.

Edit, move, delete fields & prevent missing data

Right to each fields there are 3 buttons to remove, move up, and move down the field.

If vendors are already registered and you remove a field, the value of this field won't be visible on their settings page. Data is not lost but it is not displayed.

If a field is renamed or edited, the vendor's past data will remain.

When you create a field, all vendors will have an empty field in their settings page. As an admin you can fill up this value if necessary for data consistency.
