To create a Package, visit [Packages] > Browse, and click the "Create Package" button.
Creating a Package consists of several sections:
The Basic section consists of the following options:

| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| TheSSLStore Credential | Select your TheSSLStore Reseller Name. |

You may wish to check the "Cancel at end of term" box. This will prevent the SSL certificate from auto-renewing, requiring the client to place a new order if they wish to renew. Otherwise, the SSL certificate will renew automatically. When importing Packages through the module, this option will not be checked. |
