Bringing the product data in from Sage Business Cloud to Storehub is the first step towards integrating with your eCommerce site/Marketplace.
Once this data is in Storehub.io, you can enrich your products with merchandising (images, gallery images, categories, filter tags, product variables/sizes/colours and more), activate/delete products and flag products to sync to your sales channels (WooCommerce, Shopify etc).
Connecting Storehub to your sales channels is as simple as copy-pasting the API keys from WooCommerce onto your Storehub.io account. Once completed, Merchandising data will flow from Storehub.io to WooCommerce/Shopify, so product merchandising, pricing & stock will update automatically.
If you have an existing eCommerce store, and would like to sync it with your Sage Business Cloud accounting data, the following Storehub.io modes are available:
Merchandising on Storehub.io - This mode is used when you want to send product and merchandising data to multiple channels (eCommerce stores or Marketplaces).
Merchandising on channel - This mode is used when you have an existing eCommerce store and don’t plan on adding a B2B/Trade store module in the future, or integrating with other marketplaces like Amazon, Takealot.com or eBay. This makes for a much simpler setup process as the user does not have to copy the merchandising information from an existing eCommerce store into Storehub.io.
Upon an order being placed on your sales channel, Storehub.io is notified and the order is raised consequently in Sage Business Cloud. You can determine what order type/document type is raised in Sage Business Cloud (Invoice, Sales Order or Quote) based on the payment method type (i.e payment gateway or cash type order), and if the payment was successful or not (for payment gateway orders only).
The order information raised in Sage Business Cloud contains the following:
- Sales channel order reference number
- Delivery address
- Billing address
- Customer details (name, contact number, email)
- Order line items
- Item prices + VAT
- Item discount % per line item (discount is worked out as a percentage of sale price vs ERP price). All discounts/offers are managed on your eCommerce platform.
- Order comments
- All orders syncing from WooCommerce to Sage Business Cloud may contain a prefix that you define, like “WOO”0018443 - this helps identify the order at a glance
