Setting Up Price and Quantity Sync Mapping for eCommerce
Learn to set up price and quantity sync mappings for various eCommerce platforms using the NetSuite Connector.
The process of setting up price and quantity sync mappings in NetSuite varies depending on your specific eCommerce platform. This guide outlines how to configure these mappings effectively, ensuring your product data syncs correctly across different storefronts.
How Do You Set Up Price and Quantity Sync Mapping?
To establish price and quantity sync mappings, follow these steps:
- Log in to app.farapp.com.
- Select the desired connector and account.
- Navigate to Product > Mappings.
- From the Category list, choose Add Category.
- Pick the category that concludes with PriceQty; for instance, select WalmartPriceQty when working with Walmart.
- Click Add Category to proceed.
- Include the following fields in your mapping setup:
- Flag Field: Important for accounts without the NetSuite Connector SuiteApp. Create a custom item field for each storefront. A flag field can be a single character as a free-form text or list field. Refer to the section on NetSuite Connector Storefront Flag Fields for detailed instructions.
- Category: This mapping informs NetSuite Connector about the appropriate category for listing items.
- Price: Specify the item price using either NetSuite's price levels or a custom field.
- Quantity/Qty/Inventory: Different storefronts label quantity differently; ensure proper mapping based on the environment you are working with.
- SKU: Essential for ensuring that the correct items are matched with your updates. This SKU must correspond to the one set in your order settings.
Specific Adjustments for Storefronts
Here are unique considerations for syncing with specific storefronts:
- Amazon: You must create an AmazonInventoryPrice category and set up the relevant mappings there.
- eBay: It’s necessary to establish the eBay Flag field for sync. Utilize the eBayFixedPrice category for these mappings. If you plan to manage variation listings, also map in the eBayVariations category.
- Walmart: Simply add the WalmartPriceQty category and configure your mappings accordingly.
Key Considerations
- Custom Fields: Ensure that all necessary custom fields are established before beginning your configurations. These might include creating custom lists for flag fields to manage product listings properly.
- Category Mapping: Each storefront may have different requirements for how items are categorized, so be sure to confirm that your configurations align with the expected mapping for each platform.
