Products (IOMAD E-Commerce)

The Products page for IOMAD E-Commerce is where products are created, configured, and managed. Before it can be accessed, the E-Commerce block must be configured in settings.

Once configured, the page can be accessed through the IOMAD dashboard:

Go to the IOMAD dashboard.
Choose the company you'd like to edit from the Select a company dropdown (or use the company selector at the top right of the page).
Click on the IOMAD E-Commerce tab.
Select Products.

Configuring the E-Commerce block

Setting up a payment account

A payment account needs to be configured in Moodle before the e-commerce block can be used.

Go to Site administration -> General -> Payment -> Payment accounts.
Click Create payment account.
Fill in the account name and ID number fields, then hit Save changes.

' NB: Configuring a payment gateway for the account needs to be done separately - you can find these settings under Site administration -> Plugins -> Payment gateways -> Manage payment gateways.

Configuring the block

Once a payment account is set up, the settings for the e-commerce block can be configured via Site administration -> Plugins -> Blocks -> IOMAD eCommerce. Once these are set, you are ready to begin creating products for sale.

NB: Still can't access the block? Make sure that all necessary fields on the IOMAD eCommerce configuration page are filled - including the admin first name, last name, and email address, which are empty by default.
