Marketplace Settings
The minimum setup to send offers should have been completed when the API credentials were entered under marketplace settings. You should have the ability to create and update offers.
This leaves the other marketplace settings which you would want to configure. I have listed the important configs to setup at the top of this guide. The Guide is referencing the section under Administration > Multi-Channel > Marketplace Settings.
