# Store finder

> Set up the WEBSALE store finder with click & collect, store selection per session and stock availability checks in the chosen branch.

WEBSALE supports a store finder including click & collect, saving the selected store, and availability checks in the selected store. Customers can use it to select a store, remember this store for the session, and — if supported — order goods online and pick them up in the store.

## Store management

<Info>
  Currently, store management is only possible via the Stores REST API.<br />Store management via the Admin Interface is currently being developed and will only be available at a later time.

  In order for a store finder to be offered in the online shop, stores must be created and maintained. Store management is currently done via the [Stores API reference](/en/schnittstellen/admin-interface-api/api-referenz-stores).

  The available fields of a store are also documented there, such as:

  * `name` - Name of the store
  * `street` - Street and house number
  * `openingHours` - Opening hours
  * `location` - Coordinates of the store
  * `clickAndCollect` - Pickup at the store available
  * and many more

  For all data fields for a store, see [Stores API reference](/en/schnittstellen/admin-interface-api/api-referenz-stores)
