2. Choose profile type

Time: 5 min

Here you can select the ‘type’ of profile you want, based on the functions it needs to have.

Your starting point

  • I didn’t do anything yet, except from reading this userguide → go to step 1
  • I have clicked the ‘confirm email address’ link, directing me to the profile types page → go to step 2
  • I want to change my profile or account type → go here

Steps

1. Log into the Administration Panel OR Click on the cog in the top right hand side of the homepage and select ‘Administration’.

2. Select the type of profile you want and click the 'start' button

If you are a producer, these are your options:

  1. **Producer profile – connect through OFN: ** This option allows you to create a profile on the OFN. Your profile is a way for you to share your story with others and makes you visible and contactable to customers and other enterprises who may wish to trade with you. A producer with a profile can also add products, which may be stocked in other OFN shopfronts.
  2. **Producer Shop- sell your own produce: ** This option allows producers to create their own OFN shopfront through which to sell their produce. Note that producers can conduct sales through their own shopfront and simultaneously act as a supplier to another shopfront.
  3. **Producer Hub- sell produce from self and others: ** This option is for producers who wish to sell their own produce, as well and products created by other producers.

* Note: The above relates to Australian users only. Local instances may vary.

If you are not a producer, you are called a hub. These are your options:

  2. Hub Shop : This option provides you with a complete online store for your hub, in addition to the profile.

* Note: The above relates to Australian users only. Local instances may vary.
