Settings
Configure which stallions, shipping methods, stations, terms and overall shop options customers see and can purchase in your breeding webshop.
Good to know
- The tabs you see depend on your rights: stallions, shipping and stations need shop‑management rights, while breeding settings need admin or semen‑collection rights.
- If you have any of those rights, an “Other” tab appears, combining general shop options (NVWA approval, cut‑off time, default down‑payment) with breeding‑specific defaults.
- All changes are saved immediately and become visible in the webshop right away.
The Add button on the Agents / Insemination stations and Semen collection stations tiles opens the save station dialog.
