General settings: store details and defaults

Maintain the business identity and defaults used across your store.

Before you start

Use an owner or administrator account and have the correct business details ready.

On a phone? Open the admin menu to find the same section. Screenshots below show the desktop view; tap “Open full size” for a closer look.
STEP 1

Open General

Go to Settings → General and review Store details.

  • Check the store name, contact details, and business address.
STEP 2

Review store defaults

Inspect the currency, region, time zone, and units offered under Store defaults.

  • Changing currency can affect how prices are interpreted. Review the displayed consequences and coordinate an established store’s change with support.
STEP 3

Review order processing

Inspect the Order processing settings and choose the behavior your operations team can support.

  • Do not enable an automatic action without understanding when it runs.
STEP 4

Save and verify

Save the changed section. Reopen it and check a storefront page and a sample order display.

  • Review related shipping and notification details after changing business information.

CHECK YOUR WORK

You’re ready when…

  • The saved business details are accurate.
  • Your team understands the chosen defaults.

IF SOMETHING DOESN’T LOOK RIGHT

Troubleshooting

Why do I still see old details?

Verify that you saved the correct section and are viewing the same store. Theme text and notification templates may contain separately entered details.

Why is a control missing or unavailable?

Confirm that you are in the correct store and that your role allows this action. Optional apps and channels may require installation, a plan, or activation. Share the screen name and error with support if access is still unclear.
