Sales Channels
A sales channel can be either an internal channel, such as your own website or POS system, or an external source like marketplaces (e.g., Amazon) or other integrations that place orders for your business. With Afosto's order management system, you can manage all orders in one location and gain valuable insights from analyzed data. This allows you to handle all orders from different channels in one system, manage inventories from a single dashboard, and perform analyses on all your orders.
Step 1: Add Sales Channel

Step 2: Choose Sales Channel Type

Step 3: Configure Channel Settings
