The Launchpad serves as the central hub for all HotWax Commerce apps, providing easy access to development, user acceptance testing (UAT), and production versions of the applications all in one place.
The Launchpad is the central hub for accessing all HotWax Commerce applications. It provides Single Sign-On (SSO), so users only need to log in once to access all associated apps without re-entering credentials.
When you open the Launchpad without an active session, a Login button appears in the top-right corner of the home page. Select this button to begin the sign-in process.
Enter your Order Management System (OMS) instance URL and select Next.
Enter your Username and Password, then select Login.
Once signed in, selecting any app card on the home page automatically authenticates you into that application through Single Sign-On (SSO).
In the OMS instance URL field, enter just the part before .hotwax.io. For example, if your instance is company-name.hotwax.io, enter company-name. The system automatically constructs the full instance URL. If you don't know your instance name, contact your system administrator.
If you select an app card without signing in first, the app redirects you back to the Launchpad login page to complete authentication before you can access it.
Applications on the Launchpad are organized into the following categories:
BOPIS
Enables store associates to manage and handover Buy Online, Pickup In-Store orders to customers.
Fulfillment
Enables store associates to pick, pack, and ship orders brokered to stores from the OMS.
Pre-Orders
Enables merchandisers to manage pre-orders and backorders with planned future inventory.
Available to Promise
Enables merchandisers to configure rules for computing and publishing available inventory to sales channels.
Job Manager
Helps operations teams monitor service health, manage job schedules, investigate files and messages, and build data exports.
Order Routing
Enables merchandisers to configure order routing rules that determine how and where orders are fulfilled.
Receiving
Enables store associates to manage incoming shipments, purchase orders, and return orders.
Cycle Count
Enables stock associates to count store inventory and reconcile systematic and physical inventory.
Transfers
Enables store associates to manage inventory transfers between facilities.
Import
Enables users to import inventory and purchase orders.
Users
Allows businesses to create and manage users within HotWax Commerce OMS.
Facilities

Company
Enables administrators to manage company-level configurations, product stores, and Shopify shop connections.
Each app on the Launchpad can be launched in three different environments:
Production
Select the app card.
Development (Dev)
Select the bottom-left icon on the app card.
UAT (User Acceptance Testing)
Select the bottom-right icon on the app card.
Some apps, such as Available to Promise, Order Routing, and Company, require a Maarg instance to be configured. Maarg is HotWax Commerce's API and routing management platform. If Maarg is not configured, these apps will display a Not configured badge and will be inaccessible.
Select your user profile at the top of the home page.
Select Logout from the menu.
