Workflow: SYSPRO to the B2B Trade Store

Below is a brief overview of how Stock2Shop syncs product updates from SYSPRO to the B2B Trade Store, and automatically raises online orders into SYSPRO as invoices or sales orders.

There are two main elements to this Stock2Shop integration:

• Product updates
• Order automation

Product updates

Stock2Shop can sync vital product data from your SYSPRO to the B2B Trade Store. This means that your wholesale customers and sales reps will see accurate stock levels and pricing.

We can, in fact, sync any of the data in your SYSPRO product table to your Stock2Shop console. You can then choose to add enrichment such as images and other marketing information before sending it to the following fields on the Trade Store:

• SKU
• Barcode
• Title
• Description
• Images
• Weight
• Stock level
• Product relationships (simple and configurable)
• Categorisation
• Multiple price lists
• Contract (or Matrix) pricing
• Any additional product attribute information

Below is a breakdown if the workflow for setting up this integration:

Workflow

Stock2Shop can send your SYSPRO items to the B2B Trade Store where they are created as either simple or multi-variant products, depending on your data.

Preparing your data: You would need to add some Custom Form Fields as indicated on the example spreadsheet below:

• Online Sync. This must be a dropdown field with three possible values:
  • IGNORE (This must be the default value. This item will not sync.)
  • ACTIVE (This item will sync to S2S and through to the website.)
  • DELETE (This will effect a deletion of the item in S2S and on the Trade Store. It will only be required later.)
• Product Code. This is the parent code that groups SKUs together as variants of a single product.
  • It can never be blank.
  • If a product is simple (ie contains only one variant), copy the SKU into this field and leave the Product Option field blank. (see “Product D” as an example)
• Product Option. This is the difference between any two variants as displayed to the customer on the website front end.

Using this workflow, you will be able to sync products from SYSPRO to the Trade Store where they will be configured as multi-variant products where required. For more information on the relationship between products and variants, click here.

Order automation

In addition to syncing updates from SYSPRO to the Trade Store, Stock2Shop also automates the raising of orders back to SYSPRO as either invoices or sales orders.

Order automation is especially important if you are selling on multiple platforms channels, because it means that SYSPRO will know about an online purchase as soon as it is placed on one of your platforms. This in turn allows Stock2Shop to promptly alert your other platforms of the reduction in stock availability, virtually eradicating the chance of overselling.
