New uStore Creation Process and Timeline
The following chart outlines the process for creating a new store. The University has two Marketplace environments: Test and Production. Generally the Storefront will be created in the test environment first so that all aspects of the store can be tested. After the test Storefront is approved, the Storefront is then set up in production. Time frames are approximate and dependent upon the complexity of the project, time of school year and urgency.
