Excluding non-Avasam orders

Avasam can download orders for products not linked in Avasam - This is useful if you don't immediately map listings after creating them. Alternatively, if you sell some of your own stock alongside Avasam orders, it can clutter up the order screen. Non-Avasam orders are deleted after 3 days if not for mapped products.

To avoid seeing those orders:

  1. In ‘settings’, select ‘sales channel integration’.
  2. Find the relevant channel integration and click its name to open the integration.
  3. Scroll down to the 'additional settings' section heading.
  4. Click on the 'additional settings' section heading to open up the settings menu.
  5. Set the exclude non-Avasam orders switch to off, or grey.
  6. Click ‘save’ to apply any updates or changes to Avasam.
  7. You will be returned to the list of channel integrations.
tip

You cannot make exclude non-Avasam orders and split orders with unknown SKUs active simultaneously, only one at a time can be active, or neither.

Splitting order containing Avasam and non-Avasam SKUs

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:

  1. In ‘settings’, select ‘sales channel integration’.
  2. Find the relevant channel integration and click its name to open the integration.
  3. Scroll down to the 'additional settings' section heading.
  4. Click on the 'additional settings' section heading to open up the settings menu.
  5. Set the split orders with unknown SKUs switch to on, or green.
  6. Click ‘save’ to apply any updates or changes to Avasam.
  7. You will be returned to the list of channel integrations.

Listing on Wix with Avasam

With the Avasam listing tool, it's easier than ever to list your products on your Wix store

tip

Ensure that the title, description, shipping price and selling price are correct before listing a product.

Listing a product in your Wix store

  2. Click on the listings button for your Wix store.
  3. Select one or more products to list that don't have tick icons by their entry by selecting/ticking the left hand box for the product(s).

    2. Ensure you check all of the title, price and condition settings for each child item, including pricing automation.

tip

When listing products to your store, both with and without using the Avasam listing tool, in order to map the product correctly so that orders for the product can be processed, you will need to go into the mapping tool to download the latest listings after they have been created:

  • Open settings
  • Open channel integrations
  • Click on the channel to open the settings
  • Click on SKU mapping to expand the section
  • Select download from the drop down list. This may take several minutes.
  • Click on the SKU mapping tool button.
    -- If the items were listed in Avasam , or using the Avasam SKUs, then click on the action available option, and select automap SKUs.
    -- If the items were listed with a different SKU, then follow the instructions for SKU mapping.
  • Click close when you have finished.
tip

The tick icons indicate that an item is already listed on your Wix store.

  • A green tick is an item that has been previously listed using Avasam's listing tool on your Wix store.
  • A grey tick is an icon that is already on your store, but was listed without using our listing tool.

If an item shows a red exclamation mark (!) icon, this means that there has been an error when trying to list that item. Please hover the mouse over it for a tool tip that says why, or contact our support team for assistance.

tip

If you change your mind about updates you are making to products for listing, then you can click cancel to leave the screen and abandon changes.

Wix shipping mapping

This guide ensures that Avasam can fulfil and invoice your Wix orders with the correct shipping services for the supplier.

If you want the shipping service paid for by the customer to automatically select the correct shipping provider and service when the order is downloaded to Avasam, then you will need to map the services from the site/channel to those in Avasam.

The ‘Shipping mapping’ section will list any existing mappings. You can open/expand it by clicking on the arrow to the right of the title. This will open a new window that includes information about the available Avasam shipping services, and the services available on the integrated account.

If any services are already mapped, then they will be listed here.

Delete a shipping mapping

To delete a shipping mapping:

  1. Locate the service.
  2. Click the ‘X’ to the right of the service.
  3. Click ‘Save’ to apply the change.

To create a new shipping mapping:

  1. Select the service to map under the ‘Sales channel shipping service’ drop down list.
  2. Select the Avasam shipping service to map this against under the ‘Avasam shipping service’ drop down list.
  3. Click ‘Map field’.
tip
