3.Camera: Allows you to take a picture of the item directly from the Item Entry App.

If your Listing Manager is set to create listings on Shopify for new web items, then when you save the item, it will go straight to Shopify. This is assuming that you filled in a weight and have attached a picture to the item, if these are set to be required.

If your Listing Manager is not set to auto-create listings on Shopify, there will be some additional steps your web item entry person will need to do before the item can be listed on Shopify.

They will need to go to the Listing Manager and then click on Add A Listing.
