What are “drafts”?

The Drafts category is intended to help you keep track of items you are still working on. 

Studio on mobile
Your dashboard shows the categories Items and Drafts, and 
when you tap View My Inventory you will see tabs for All Items and Drafts

When you add a new item in your mobile app and tap Save & Finish, you will be asked: 
Upload this item to your inventory? Your choices are: 
  1. Save As Draft: the item goes into Drafts. 
  2. Save: the item goes into All Items categorized as Available.
Studio on desktop
Your dashboard shows Total Items with the categories Available, On Hold, Out of Stock, Sold and Draft. 

When you add a new item in your desktop app, you will have the options Save as Draft and Save at the bottom of the page.  
  1. Save As Draft: the item goes into Total Items categorized as Draft
  2. Save: the item goes into Total Items categorized as Available
While an item is a draft, some actions can’t be done e.g. prep for listing, copy, put on hold; because these functions usually have the best result when working with complete item records.
