Goal
To create and manage Orderlists in Propeller Commerce, enabling you to control which products users can order based on positive or negative restrictions.

- Positive Orderlists: Users can only see and order products that are included in the list.
- Negative Orderlists: Users cannot see and order products that are included in the list.

- Click New order list.
Step 2: Configure General Settings
A pop-up will appear:
