Opening a Management Center tool

Perform catalog, promotion, marketing, assets, or workspace tasks using the tools within the Management Center.

About this taskTo open a Management Center tool:

  1. Open the Management Center.

  2. If you are working in a workspace-enabled environment, the Management Center is read-only for the current user. Before you can work in the Catalogs, Marketing, Promotions, or Asset tools, complete one of the following steps in the Tasks tool:

    1. Choose to work on tasks that are inside a workspace.

    2. Choose to work on approved content within a workspace.

    The Tasks tool tool is only visible if workspaces are enabled and is open by default to display your assigned tasks.

  3. Depending on whether you have already accessed or used the tool during this session:

    • If the tool is not already open, from the Management Center menu select the tool name, for example, Catalogs, Marketing, Promotions, Assets, or Tasks.

    • If the tool is already open, a tab for it is displayed in the main work area. Click the tab for the tool; for example, select Catalogs, Marketing, Promotions, Assets, or Tasks.

What to do nextAfter you open any of the Management Center tools, except for the Tasks tool:

  • If you are authorized to only work with one store, that store is selected by default.

  • If you do not have a default store specified in the Management Center preferences, from the Store list, select the store that you want to manage using the selected tool.

To close a tool, close its tab by selecting the X next to the tab name.
