Setting up your store for the first time


When setting up your store for the first time, consider following the recommended approach in the following diagram.

This approach ensures that when your users receive the invitation to your store, they will:

  • Have access to the appropriate BMC AppZone Client
  • See applications in the store when they first begin exploring the site

Following this approach also means that you can partially complete your store setup and save the work in progress without triggering email alerts to your users.
