The setup steps open for an owner or administrator of a new account, right after they confirm their first shop. If they do not open for you, set up your taxes, shop fees, labor rate and distributors in **Shop Settings**. See [Change a setting later](#change-a-setting-later). Right after you confirm your first shop, the same card continues through four settings: taxes, shop fees, labor rate and distributors. Each step shows the same form as its Settings page. Anything you save in a step appears on that Settings page too. Every step is optional, and you can change everything later. ## Set up your taxes, fees, labor rate and distributors Enter your email and a password on **Create your account**. Select **Create account**. On **Let's set up your store**, search for your shop on Google. If it is not there, select **Add "your shop name" Manually** under the search box. Select **Confirm** under your shop's details. The same card opens **Set up your taxes**, the first of the four steps. Check that **Label** and **Description** have a value. Enter the tax rates your shop charges. TireTutor does not include tax rates. Select **Save**. Select **Continue**. The card opens **Add shop fees and service charges**. Turn on the shop fees you charge, for example **Automatic Tire Shop Fee**, and enter the amount. Select **Save**. Select **Continue**. The card opens **Set your labor rate**. Enter the hourly rate your shop charges. Labor from the labor guide costs the hours times this rate. Select **Save**. Select **Continue**. The card opens **Connect your distributors**. Select **Connect** on each distributor you buy from, or select **Skip for now** to do it later. A connected distributor shows **Configure**. If the step shows **Contact support** instead, select it. We help you connect your distributors. Select **Continue**. The card opens **Your shop is ready**. Select **Finish setup**. Your TireTutor dashboard opens. ## Skip a step Select **Skip for now** to leave a step for later. TireTutor asks you first: * Select **Skip for now** in the dialog to move on. * Select **Stay** to go back to the step. Skip this step? dialog reading You can set up distributors any time later in Settings, with Stay and Skip for now buttons. A skipped step keeps its number in the row of steps at the top, with **Skipped** under its name. A step you saved or continued shows a check mark. ## Move on without saving your changes A step saves only when you select its save button. If you change a field and then select **Continue**, TireTutor asks before it moves on: * Select **Go back** to return to the step. Then save your changes. * Select **Continue without saving** to leave the changes unsaved. You haven't saved your changes dialog reading If you continue, the changes on this step won't be saved, with Go back and Continue without saving buttons. A step that you continue without saving counts as skipped, unless you saved it earlier. To go back a step, select **Back** at the bottom left of the card. **Back** shows from **Add shop fees and service charges** on. It keeps every check mark and **Skipped** label. ## Finish setup now or later The last step, **Your shop is ready**, lists each setting as set up or skipped. Each skipped setting has a link, such as **Set up distributors in Settings**, that opens its Settings page. Your shop is ready. Taxes: set up. Shop fees: set up. Labor rates: set up. Distributors: skipped, with a Set up distributors in Settings link. A Finish setup button. * **Finish setup** completes setup for your whole business. The steps stop opening by themselves, for you and for every other administrator. * **Finish later**, at the top of every step, closes the steps for you only. Another administrator of your business still sees them.
