> Open the Retail app from Plato Console and understand the main Retail sidebar.

Open `Retail` from the Plato Console when you want to manage store operations, products, catalogs, reports, customers, promo codes, or POS devices.

## Main Areas

The Retail sidebar is grouped around daily work:

* `Dashboard` gives a quick view of today's sales, orders, payments, best sellers, discounts, voids, and staff activity.
* `Orders` is where staff review and create retail orders.
* `Order Management` opens the shared order management workspace.
* `Transactions` shows retail payments, refunds, and manual transaction records.
* `Engagement` contains customers and promo codes.
* `Catalog Management` contains catalogs, categories, products, and modifiers.
* `Reports` contains sales, payment, catalog performance, discount, expense, void, employee, and session reports.
* `Settings` contains general settings, devices, discounts, charges, payment methods, reasons, and delivery zones.

## Catalog Editor

When you open a specific catalog, the sidebar changes. That editor has its own pages:

* `Builder` controls what appears in the public catalog.
* `General` controls catalog name, type, price visibility, URL, and deletion.
* `Language` controls default and additional catalog languages.
* `Ordering` controls checkout options, customer fields, payment behavior, and operating hours.
* `Theme` controls colors, fonts, styling, and welcome page.
* `Integrations` connects the catalog with supported Plato tools and payment integrations.
* `Feedback Form` controls customer feedback collection.
* `Public URL` opens the customer-facing catalog.

## A Good Setup Path

Set up the catalog and store settings before taking live orders. A clean product list, correct payment methods, clear order types, and tested devices make checkout much easier for staff.
