Chapter 1 — Getting started
In this chapter: logging in, getting to know the dashboard layout, the home page, the common pattern of list pages, and your personal account settings.
1-1. Logging in
- Open your shop's dashboard address in your browser.
- Enter your email and password and click Log in (Anmelden).
- Forgotten your password? Use the "Forgot password" link to receive a recovery email and set a new password.
1-2. Overall layout
- Sidebar (left): all sections — home page, reservations, sales, catalogue, warehouse, purchasing, content, marketing, accounting, users, reports, system. Groups expand and collapse.
- User menu (top): access to your personal account (profile, security, appearance, notifications, connections) and log out.
- Notification bell icon (top): the live notification centre — see section 1-6.
- Changing the language is done on the login page (not in the user menu).
- Menus you cannot see mean your role does not have permission for them.
1-3. Home page (Startseite)
An instant view of your sales status:
- Statistics tiles: sales, number of orders and so on
- Sales chart over a selectable time range (date filter at the top of the page)
- Best-selling products and latest orders
- Sales breakdown by category
- A Report export button and shortcuts to "View orders" / "View products"
1-4. The common pattern of list pages
Almost all dashboard lists work the same way; explained once and for all:
- Search: the search box at the top of the list.
- Filter: column filters (status, date, etc.) to narrow the results.
- Create: a button to create a new record, usually top-right.
- Row actions: edit, delete (with confirmation) and, depending on the section, special actions.
- Pagination at the bottom.
- Most lists also have an export option (CSV/Excel).
1-5. Personal account (Account)
From the user menu → account settings:
- Profile: your name and details.
- Security: change your password; two-factor authentication (2FA) with a QR code or a manual key, disabling it, and recovery codes (which can be regenerated); and connecting social accounts (link/unlink).
- Account PIN: inside the Security tab — the same PIN used at the point of sale to quickly unlock the lock screen.
- Appearance: light/dark theme.
- Notifications: notification preferences.
- Connections: your connected personal services.
1-6. Notification centre (top-bar bell)
The bell icon in the top bar of the dashboard shows live notifications — especially account security activity: successful or suspicious logins, password change/reset, regeneration of recovery codes, and connecting a social account.
- A drop-down list with the option to "mark all as read".
- The channel by which each notification reaches you (email/in-app/browser) is set in the account notifications tab.
