Understand the three scopes

Product identity and inventory remain shared. Draft locales do not publish a second content locale.

WorkflowScope
Shopping interfaceEnglish/Arabic messages and plural forms.
Catalog translationsText drafts, source snapshots and review states.
Market releaseOne live country/currency and assortment/price overlay.

Prepare and review translations

  1. Open Content → Storefront languages.
  2. Edit catalog text against its source and review its state.
  3. Preserve interface placeholders and plural forms; preview or use CSV.
  4. Save/publish through the relevant workflow and verify shopper output.

Publish a reviewed market

  1. Prepare assortment and prices in Configuration → Markets.
  2. Run readiness; resolve currency, language, price and product issues.
  3. Preview effective facts, then publish the reviewed revision with a reason.
  4. Verify storefront and checkout; stale carts/proposals need review.

Operate the published release

Draft edits do not change a release or activate source-inactive products. Restore defaults retains release/order history.

Each installation has one live market, without simultaneous country switching or separate per-market payment, delivery and tax policies.
