Things to know before importing your products and retailers

You may also include the material if you have different materials for one color (eg. Denim Black).

2. Retailer reference

The retailer’s reference is required when exporting the orders. Make sure to add the retailer reference on ApparelMagic and import it through the retailers flow. 

3. Flows

Once the connector is set up on your showroom, you may find the flows in Integration center under Tasks section.

Once it’s done, go to the setting wheel > Integration Center > Tasks > Orders exports to Apparel Magic. To export all the orders, click on « RUN ORDERS EXPORT TO APPAREL MAGIC NOW ».

When the task is executed successfully, the integration status in orders will show Successfully sent instead of Pending and the order status will be changed to Closed automatically.

Why I cannot export some orders ?

The common error when orders cannot be exported is that the reference is missing on the retailer profile. You may enter the retailer profile to add the missing information on Le New Black and ApparelMagic.

Afterwards, you have to change the Integration status of your order because when there is an error in the orders export, Le New Black will automatically block the order. To change the Integration status, go back to your order and the Integration section under the Summary. Here you may change the integration status from Blocked to Pending then click on Save and close.

Once it’s done you may run the task manually as shown above in How to export the orders from Le New Black to ApparelMagic.
