Managing Auctions
The Auctions page is your central hub for viewing, editing, and managing all of your auction listings.
Auction List
Your auctions are displayed in a list view containing relevant fields, such as product name, current bid, number of bids, and status.
Status Filters
Active — Auctions currently accepting bids.
Scheduled — Auctions set to start in the future.
Completed — Auctions that have ended (with or without a winner).
Archived — Auctions moved to the archive.
Sorting
Sort by creation date, end date, start date, or total bids.
Viewing Auction Details
Click on any auction to open its detail page. Here you can see the current bid, bid history, auction settings, and winner information.
Actions
Edit
Click Edit to modify an auction's settings.
Scheduled listings — All settings can be modified.
Active listings — Some settings are restricted after bids have been placed (for example, you cannot lower the start price below the current bid).
Ended listings — Settings cannot be modified after the auction has ended.
End Now
Immediately end an active auction before its scheduled end time. If there is an eligible high bidder, they are declared the winner.
Cancel Listing
Cancel an auction listing entirely. No winner is declared.
Archive
Move a completed auction to the archive to keep your active list clean. If the auction has an unpaid winner, the winner is canceled when archived. Archived auctions can still be viewed using the Archived status filter.
Unarchive
Restore a previously archived auction back to the completed list.
Deleting Auctions
Auction listings that have never received a bid can be deleted from the Auctions page. This is useful for removing listings created by mistake or test listings you no longer need.
Navigate to Auctions.
Select the listings you want to delete.
Click Delete auctions in the actions bar.
Confirm the deletion.
The Delete auctions action appears when at least one selected listing has no bids.
