Why is Activate greyed out on my template?

Short answer

Save or discard the template's unsaved changes before clicking Activate in the header.

Closing an editing row with Done does not save the whole page. Use Save in the save bar, then activate the draft.

Why is the location picker greyed out?

The location picker is greyed out when the current record cannot change location. Reasons include a placed Shopify order, a purchase-order link, an unfinished sync, a locking status or view-only access. Hover over the picker for the reason.

A purchase order keeps its own location; leave the record page to choose another working location.

Can I undo a change to a quote, template or vendor?

Yes. Open the record's Activity, choose Version history, and click Restore this version on the saved version you need. Review Current and After restore before confirming Restore version N.

Your role must be allowed to edit the record, and normal locks still apply. Restoring adds a saved version and keeps the later history.

Why does my template product have new variants in Shopify?

Receiving a template configuration creates or reuses a Stock unit variant on the template's Shopify product. The base variant is Made to order; stocked variants identify exact finished configurations.

Receiving creates that stock identity, not placing the customer order. The customer-order line keeps its configuration history as a custom item.
