Online Store and Online Marketplaces – How to Enable Auto Sync
Important: This article only applies to Online Store and Online Marketplaces customers.
Overview
We use the Auto Sync feature to keep your product quantities up-to-date across all of your sales channels. When Auto Sync is enabled, we will send a quantity update (your syncable balance) to your sales channels each time there is a quantity change (e.g., new sales order, purchase order, work order, manual adjustment, file upload, or inventory feed update).
Your Ecommerce account is the master of inventory, so any quantity adjustments made directly on your sales channel won't be updated in Online Store or Online Marketplaces. Before you enable Auto Sync for your products, you will want to ensure the quantities are correct on your Ecommerce website, as we will override the quantities you currently have set on your sales channels once a quantity sync occurs.
