This screen explains the steps to follow to set up the Zalando stock and sales synchronization with your Stockagile account.
Requirements to configure Zalando
The user must have the role of OWNER. We can see the different types of roles in the section Create or edit a user.
Steps to configure Zalando
Within Stockagile, pull down the ECOMMERCE menu on the side menu and go to the CHANNELS view.
Click on the blue "+ New Page" button located in the top right corner.
A form will automatically open, and here you will need to specify the following details for the new page:
Details
Platform: in this case, Zalando.
Name: will be used to identify the channel within Stockagile.
Synchronization enabled/disabled: toggle synchronization on or off.
Main Configuration
Stock warehouses: here you will determine which warehouses the stock will be sourced from.
Warehouse: this will be the main warehouse for the channel.
Default fulfillment creation policy: you can choose between the following options:
Assign order to channel warehouse: stock will be discounted, by default, from the main warehouse associated with the channel. If the assigned warehouse does not have enough stock to cover the order, this option may generate negative stock in some products. Later, you can regularize the stock through transfers from other warehouses.
Assign order to the warehouse that has more stocks: the stock will be discounted from the warehouse that has the most units available for the products in the order. If the assigned warehouse does not have enough stock to cover the order, this option may generate negative stock for some products. If you do not want to hold negative stock, you will need to make a transfer from another warehouse to compensate.
Assign Order by Warehouse identifier: automatically assign orders to the corresponding warehouse using the relationship between Shopify locations and warehouses configured in Stockagile. This functionality requires prior configuration. If you want to activate it, you can contact the support team.
Split the order among the warehouses with the most stock: distribute the units of the order among the warehouses with the greatest availability of stock for each product, always prioritizing those with the most stock.
Split order across warehouses by priority: assign the order to the warehouses that can cover all or most of the order, following the priority order defined for each warehouse in the LOCATIONS section. If no warehouse has enough stock to completely cover the order, it will be assigned according to the established priority order.
Default payment method.
Ticket configuration.
Order serial number: if you want a specific serial number for the Ecommerce, you can create one in the CONFIGURATION section. For more information, go to Create and Edit Serial Numbers.
Price level: you can also create a specific one for this e-commerce under Settings > Inventory > Pricing.
Advanced Configuration
Website URL: if modified, it must include "https://" at the beginning to be valid.
Key: fill in with your Zalando API Key.
Hours between synchronizations: the number of hours between automatic synchronizations.
Automatically mark/unmark return orders as received.
Minimum stock threshold: when the sum of the stock for a product variant in the channel’s stock warehouses is below this value, it will synchronize with 0 stock.
Once the channel is created, you need to contact Zalando to have them add the Stockagile Zalando OEA Webhook; you will find it at the bottom of the screen.
Once everything is configured, a CSV will be created and synchronized with Zalando every X amount of time.
Synchronization with Zalando is done through barcodes, which must be EAN 13.
⚠️ Important, the products are created from Zalando, so from Stockagile we synchronize only stock and price.
