# Managing shops

_The head office screen to manage the network's branches: shop list, sync, passwords and registering a new shop._

> **💡 Tip**
>
> Want a branch to follow the **network's standard** (services, plans, messages)? Keep **sync on** — it receives everything from the head office automatically.

The **Managing shops** screen is where the **head office manages the branches** of the [network](/en/configuracao/rede/como-funciona-a-rede/). It appears **only on the master account**, under **Settings → Shops → Managing shops**.

## The shop list

The screen lists each **branch** of the network with the main info:

- **Name** and **Internal name** (the nickname used by the network);
- **Internal ID** and **Tax ID (CNPJ)**;
- **Created on**;
- **Status** — *Active*, *Blocked*, *Overdue* or *Trial expired*;
- **Sync** — the on/off toggle (see below).

## Turning sync on or off

Each branch has a **sync toggle**. It defines whether the branch **receives the copies** of services, plans, combos, checklists and the other items distributed by the head office:

- **On:** the branch follows the head office (receives and updates those items).
- **Off:** the branch is **independent** on those items.

(Learn what is shared and what depends on sync in [How the Network works](/en/configuracao/rede/como-funciona-a-rede/).)

## Branch passwords

From the head office you manage each branch's access:

- **Change the branch's login password**;
- **View/copy the administrator password** (the 6-digit code);
- **Change the branch's administrator password**.

These actions ask for the **head office's administrator password** to confirm.
