Resetting the shop
Your task/initial situation
You want to partially or completely reset the data in your online shop.
Procedure for resetting the shop
We recommend that you create a database backup of the shop before resetting it (or have created). Learn more about this here: Creating a database backup.
Set a time for planned maintenance, which may take a while. Now carry out the following steps:
- Activate the maintenance mode of JTL-Shop. To do this, open the menu item Settings > Global in the shop back end and set the option Enable maintenance mode to Yes.
- Close JTL-Worker and deactivate the background service in JTL-Wawi under Admin > JTL-Worker by deactivating Aktivieren für diesen Mandanten (Activate for this tenant).
- In the back end of JTL-Shop, go to System > Reset.
- Activate the areas of JTL-Shop that you want to reset.
Please note that only items, categories, and characteristics can be restored via JTL-Wawi. All other activated areas, for example the visitor statistics, will be permanently deleted from the shop.
- Click on the Reset data button. The data of your online shop will be reset.
- In JTL-Wawi, go the menu Onlineshop > Komplettabgleich (Online shop > Online shop connection) and open the dialogue Komplettabgleich vorbereiten (Preparation of the complete synchronisation).
- Activate the check box All for the online shop. Then save the dialogue window.
- Now carry out a shop synchronisation via the menu Onlineshop > Onlineshop-Abgleich (Online Shop > Online shop synchronisation). Depending on the quantity of items, the subsequent complete synchronisation can take a very long time, as all item data, including the images, are transferred again. This also requires a stable Internet line.
- Then restart JTL-Worker and deactivate the maintenance mode of JTL-Shop.
