At a glance

Identify it by: Name.
-
Check its business context: Store.
-
Why care: Store, publication, consent, payment, and fulfillment states affect what customers see and what staff must act on; check the correct store before saving.
-
Why care: Availability and publication flags affect future use without erasing history. Prefer disabling an obsolete setup record when existing transactions still refer to it.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting
-
The record will not save: Recheck Store, and Name and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.
-
The record saved but is not available where expected: Recheck Is Active, then clear the filters on the destination list. A saved record can still be inactive, unpublished, locked, unapproved, or in the wrong workflow state.
-
The values look right but the result is wrong: Open Store from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
