Listing Operations

Link Listings

SUPPORTED

The Link Listings operation allows Flxpoint to connect Flxpoint listings to your existing EcomDash products, as long as the SKU,EAN and UPC matches the two systems. This both preserves your current product data and allows updates without explicitly publishing listings.

Sync Listings

SUPPORTED

The Sync Listings operation is primarily responsible for updating the Quantity and Price of products on your store.

Publish Listings

NOT SUPPORTED

The Publish Listings operation is responsible for creating new listings and offerings on your store. However, currently this feature is not available for EcomDash.

The same effect can be achieved by using a Custom Export Operation.

Custom Export Operations

SUPPORTED

With the help of Custom Export Operation, you can customize a list of products that will be visible only for your Ecomdash channel.

Integrating Custom Export For Ecomdash With Flxpoint
You will need to first create listings for your Ecomdash Channel inside of the "products" section of Flxpoint.

After these listings are created, run a "Custom Export" Operation on your channels page. This will generate an HTTP link for you to copy.

Once copied, go to your Ecomdash account and click the gear icon in the top right, then select "Bulk Import/Export".

Scroll down and click "Integrated Import Formats" and "Add New". Name your import format, and then click the blue slider from "Manual" to "Integrated".

Click "Manage Integration Settings" and paste the generated HTTP link into the "HTTP Link" section.

Order Operations

Shipping Mappings

REQUIRED 

Configure the Shipping method to assign the mapping to imported orders. Shipping Mapping is the process of pre-selecting specific shipping methods and saving them in your Channel Settings so that when new orders are made to import, your preferred forms will be auto-assigned to those orders.

The idea is to increase efficiency by eliminating the need to select shipping methods for individual orders. If you're unsure, check the store shipping method in your test order to confirm how the shipping details are imported from your store or marketplace. You will need to map to this exact method and assign different shipping for the Next Day, Overnight. depending on the carriers and processes supported by your supplier

Info
The determine what to populate in your Flxpoint Channel Shipping Text, on Ecomdash Developer portal go to Settings > Shipments > Shipping Rule > Add the shipping method to your preference

Get Orders

SUPPORTED 

The Get orders operation retrieves any new Orders from Ecomdash that have not yet been imported and will send back Acknowledgements for those Orders if needed.

My Orders are not importing, what should I do?

The most likely cause of this issue relates to the order status on your store, and the order status we're looking for based on our configurations. If you are unsuccessful at importing an order; double check the status of the order, and ensure it matches your configurations for this operation.

The second possibility is that the order is "too old" for us to import. Under "Configure Settings" you also have the option of selecting the date range of orders we can import. If you set this limit to 7 days, consider checking the non-imported orders creation date and increasing the number under the "Get Orders Created within the last X Days" configuration.

Sync Orders

SUPPORTED 

The Sync order operation syncs any changes that have been made to Order(s) since the last time sync was performed. The most common use of this operation is to update tracking information to an existing order.
