Savvy has now updated Connect Manager to allow you the customer to set up new Mids/Merchants internally.
Once added Savvy will review and approve/reject and you will receive a confirmation email.
Requirements: All of the below can be granted by the Super User in your organisation.
Policy Admin > Merchant in your chain
Policy Admin > Keys Management (If using API Keys)
Permission – Create Merchant
Steps:
- Login into Connect Manager
- Go to Policy Admin / Merchant in your chain
- Click “Add Multiple Merchants” on the bottom of the screen returned
- You will be brought to a new screen where you are asked to upload an Excel file and confirm which API key is required (if necessary). Untick the API key box if not using
- The Excel file must contain the following headings: All headings must be present in the file but the ones in Pink have to be filled out with information or the file will be rejected. *see notes on Brands & Channels further down - There is a copy of the Bulk file attached to this article for your use, the 1st line is an example only and must be removed before using.
- After pressing “upload” a table is returned with message/s either reading “submitted successfully” or an error message ie Brand not valid. You will also receive a Green “ok” message to confirm that a confirmation email will be sent when the merchants are approved on the Savvy side.
- To view a list of merchants recently uploaded go to Policy Admin > Merchant in Your Chain, underneath the status heading will confirm what status the merchants are currently in.
- You still have the option here to edit the merchants while in a pending state before Savvy approves them. Ie if you need to add a Group or forgot to add an API key.
And you can always delete a pending mid by clicking the “Bin” icon.
- Once merchants have been approved by Savvy the status will change to “Active”.
