Under Order Sync, you will find the following options:

- Skip Unpaid Orders – If this is turned on, unpaid orders from the marketplace will not be imported into Shopify.

- Order Notes Preference – You can include the marketplace’s order number/ID by clicking the ‘+’ button and pasting it into this field. You may also add a prefix or suffix if needed.

- Order Number Preference – Similar to the Order Notes Preference, you can enter the marketplace order number/ID along with any desired prefix or suffix.

3. Enable Shipment Sync – Turn on Shipment Sync in the Settings.

• You can map Shopify shipping methods to those in the Marketplace. To add multiple mappings, click the ‘+’ button.

• Click the Save Shipment button, then save all settings by clicking Save at the top or bottom of the page

4. Enable Inventory Sync – Turn on Inventory Sync in the Settings.

• Safety Stock Level – Define the safety stock you want to retain in Shopify. This amount will be deducted from your total stock, and the adjusted quantity will be reflected in the Marketplace, while keeping the full stock visible in Shopify.

5. Enable Price Sync – Turn on Price Sync in the Settings.

• Any price updates made to products in Shopify will automatically sync with the Marketplace for the corresponding items.

6. Enable Product Sync – Turn on Product Sync in the Settings.

• Default Stock Level for Non-Inventory Items – Enter a default stock value that will be applied in the Marketplace for items not tracked in Shopify. This is especially useful for products you manufacture and don’t track in Shopify, as Marketplaces require all items to have inventory levels.
