Where some of your orders contain a mix of Avasam and non-Avasam products, this setting allows you to process the Avasam products and not import the unknown items. When set to no, you will only import these orders if exclude non-Avasam orders is set to no.
To enable this:
- In ‘settings’, select ‘sales channel integration’.
- Find the relevant channel integration and click its name to open the integration.
- Scroll down to the 'additional settings' section heading.
- Click on the 'additional settings' section heading to open up the settings menu.
