Your Fastmag administrator, or someone technical who is familiar with your specific setup. A Sales Manager who understands your business, and your merchandising strategies.
Who's in charge at Le New Black
Your account manager will be taking care of the whole process from day 1. He/she'll be doing:
- Asking questions about your specific Fastmag setup and sales process.
- Generating and exporting test orders to Fastmag.
- Making sure your team is updated throughout the process and addressing delays occurring on either side.
- Working with you and Fastmag support to troubleshoot any unexpected issues that arise after launch.
Timeline
A standard integration of all data flows will take 2-4 weeks to get up and running.
Integration monitoring
Once the connector is set up, you will have access to the Integration center to manage and monitor your integration with a set of tools:
- access to task logs files for continuous monitoring and troubleshooting (e.g. see if a missing EAN13 or retailer reference is preventing an order from being exported)
- triggers task manually to push and pull data on-demand
- preview data before actual import (only available on some connectors)
