How it Works
Evopos is able to communicate with nopCommerce websites.
Evopos can perform two main functions:
- Download nopCommerce Orders into Evopos as Sales Orders
- Create and Update nopCommerce Products based on Stock Item data in Evopos
nop Commerce Versions
There are no plans to support any other versions or future development as there is no core API.
Orders
Evopos will download orders based on a date criteria so orders are not downloaded twice..
The order download can be initiated manually or on a schedule.
Download Orders
- Navigate to Sales\Recall\Sales Orders
- Select the Get Web Orders option from the side menu
- Select your Magento website from the drop down list
- Click OK to start download
nopCommerce Orders will be imported as Evopos Sales Orders, Evopos will take items out of stock and allocate them to the sales order.
Once your orders have downloaded you would follow Sales Order Processing to invoice and take payment.
Items & Inventory
Evopos will update nopCommerce based on your stock items modified date and whether the web store flag/checkbox is ticked, there are additional settings whether to just update inventory quantities, or pricing and description as well.
Items can be updated manually or set on a schedule.
Update Items
