General store settings
What the General and Artificial Intelligence tabs do in the settings of an eBay store, for one region and supplier.
They open from eBay Stores > Edit > region > supplier and are saved with Save Changes (eBay Stores). Values apply only to that region and supplier, except where "whole store" is stated. The Keywords tab is described in Keyword Blacklist.

|---|---|
| Profile Image Color | Background colour of the store initials in Droopify. Shown only if the store has no profile picture; applies to the whole store |

Automatic order
With Automatic order on, orders received on eBay for this region and supplier are automatically purchased from the supplier and set as monitored a few minutes after the sale (the tab says 5-15 minutes).
- You need a connected, enabled supplier account for that supplier: Amazon or AliExpress (Supplier Accounts).
- How many automatic orders each account can place per day and what loss to accept is set in the supplier account: Edit a supplier account.
- The switch must be turned on separately for each region and supplier: for example eBay Italy with Amazon and eBay Italy with AliExpress.
- With the switch off, orders stay to be purchased: you can do it from the Orders page (Purchase Product).

| What do you want to optimize automatically? | Choose among Title, Description and Item Specifics |
| Custom prompt | Your own instructions for the AI (tone, style), up to 500 characters |
Each optimization costs credits per product, whatever fields you pick: the cost is shown in the tab. If the prompt is too long, The custom AI prompt is too long. appears.
