Any transaction initiated by users in your marketplace will be displayed in your Console, which has admin tools and views to help you understand and manage your marketplace transactions.
You can view your marketplace transaction data in Manage > Transactions tab.
Below, you can learn more about the admin capabilities available in Console.
Filtering
Click on the bar to filter transactions by their last transition. Transitions refer to changes in the stage of a transaction, where the transaction state moves from one to another. The filter dropdown will display a list of transitions that have occurred at least once in transactions within the marketplace.
Operator transitions
As a marketplace admin, you can change certain states of transactions through the use of operator transitions, depending on the type of transaction process utilized
