Syncing With Made By Her

Seller Panel (on Made By Her)

After installing the custom app and obtaining the access token, API key, and secret key, you will need to paste this information into your "Seller Sync App Configuration". To do this, go to your main Seller's Dashboard > Configuration > Seller sync app configurations.

shopify sync 

Enter the access token, API key, and secret key. Enable "Auto Sync New Products" (if you wish) and "Sales Channel" (required), then click Save.

Sales Channel Configuration from Made By Her

Using this configuration Sellers can import their products by creating a unique sales channel especially for the Admin Store which is not available on their own online store.

The seller can create a custom app and provide certain permission which you find below that would convert the custom app into a Sales channel that they can select for their product. Please refer to the images below for a better understanding.

Sellers can add Products only for the Admin marketplace which will only be available on the Sales channel created by the Seller and connected via the seller panel.

Note: Once Seller enables this configuration they won’t be able to disable it.

 

To Add the product Please make sure the Product is added to the sales channel app that the Seller created as shown below otherwise it won’t be imported or synced.

As soon as the details are configured, you will get an option to import your Shopify store products to the Made By Her store; however, first you'll want to map your product types and collections with ours. 

Map Product Type and Collection

The seller will have the option to map the admin’s store product type & collection with the product type & collection of their Shopify store.

Now, on the seller panel, here is the option to map product types & collections in the Seller Sync App Configuration menu of the app.

MAP PRODUCT TYPE

Similarly, sellers can map the product type of their respective stores with the product type of the Made By Her Shopify store.

Thus, clicking the Map Type, you will have the option to choose one product type from the Made By Her store and map it with the product type of your own Shopify store.

Importing Products from Seller's Shopify Store

Now, clicking on the Import Products button, you can import products from your Shopify store to the admin’s Shopify store.

Seller will have three methods to import products:

Method 1: Choose a Date Range & import products.

Method 2: Import products by comma-separated product IDs (no spaces)

Method 3:- Import products by product handle.

Once items have been imported, you can view the products in the Product Listing section of their respective panel.

Seller Updating Products:

If the seller has disabled the Auto Sync New Products Tab:

Once you makes any changes in the products in your Shopify store, you will get info on the Made By Her Seller's Dashboard to update all products.

Now, clicking the "View the products" button, will redirect you to a page where all the products will be listed that are not yet updated on your Made By Her store.

Additionally, you can update all the products at once by simply clicking the "Update all products" button. You also have the option to manually update each product as you like.

Bulk-Product-Update-Details-Seller-•-Multivendor-MarketPlace

In the manual update, by clicking the "Update Product" button, the product will show as being in a "Processing" state.

Bulk-Product-Update-Details-Seller-•-Multivendor-MarketPlace-1

Once processed, the product will get unlisted from this section and only the remaining non-updated/not processing products will be showing.

Final Notes

ONCE YOUR PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN IMPORTED, YOU MUST SELECT THE SHIPPING METHOD FOR EACH PRODUCT.  

**If a Shipping Method is not selected, the customer will get an error message at checkout and will not be able to complete their purchase.

**Please note that, in order for the Marketplace Shipping option to work, you must configure the Marketplace Shipping Settings as well. Please follow our Shipping Tutorial for further assistance.

Automatically synced products will need to be approved by Made By Her Staff, but don’t worry, we receive an email as soon as products have been imported and we will review them right away.

 

*If you have any issues after following this tutorial, please contact support@madebyher.com for assistance.
