# B2B Store Setup Considerations

The Commerce Setup Assistant and the Store Setup Assistant work together to create a guided path for store creation. This path is simplified to get you up and selling as fast as possible. However, you can customize a store for your specific needs by configuring locales, languages, and currencies. If you haven’t configured these before creating your store, only the default options configured for your Salesforce org show. You can update these values after creating your store.

## Locale Information

To configure the list of available countries, see [Enable State and Country Picklists](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.commerce_picklists.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Stores based on the LWR (Lighting Web Runtime) template accept only ISO codes for country and state or province. To minimize user entry errors, we recommend enabling state and country picklists, so that users select values from a list instead of typing them in. The picklists ensure that ISO codes are used consistently throughout the entire organization.").

Configure additional languages in the [Translation Workbench](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_translation_workbench.htm&type=5&language=en_US). When you create a store using the Commerce Setup Assistant, the default language that you selected becomes the default language in Experience Builder. If you change the default language later, you can manually update the default language in Experience Builder.

The currencies available at store creation are the currencies that are enabled in your org. See [Enable Currencies](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_currency_considerations.htm&type=5&language=en_US).

## Site and URL Naming Conventions

Consider these best practices for your store's name and URL.

- If you’re creating more than one selling channel, differentiate the beginning of each name by business unit, region, or other distinction.
- Users can see up to 32 characters of the name in the global header dropdown menu.
- The URL for your store is a string added to your Salesforce domain name for digital experiences. For example, if your domain is MyDomainName.my.site.com, and you enter jewelry in the URL field, your store URL is MyDomainName.my.site.com/jewelry.

You can also [create a custom URL](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=commerce.comm_custom_url.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "The default URL for a Commerce store includes a temporary path you specified when creating the store. The default URL is suitable for testing pre-production stores during development. However, before you launch a B2B store created with an LWR template into live production, we recommend that you configure a custom URL for the store. Associate the custom URL with a custom domain served by the Salesforce CDN, with Cloudflare as the CDN partner. For B2B stores created with an Aura template, a custom URL is optional. However, we recommend using a custom domain and corresponding CDN if broad access and high security are required.").

## Default Entities

After you finish the guided store setup, your store is created with these default entities.

- A store catalog with one product category
- A store buyer group with an entitlement policy
- A store price book and store strikethrough price book
- An enhanced CMS workspace and a public channel that connects the store to that CMS workspace

You can create and assign different records, but you can’t delete the default entities, except for the product category.

If something goes wrong during store creation, the default entities aren't created and you must create them manually.

You can assign a price book to buyer groups, stores, or both, but you must have at least one. When you assign a price book to a store, any customer who can access the store is eligible for prices within that price book. When you assign a price book to a buyer group, the accounts associated with that buyer group are eligible for prices within that price book.")

A catalog is the entire collection of products that you offer through your store. When you create a store, a default catalog is assigned to the store.
