Import selected Veracore products into Pressero
-
If a Pressero order matches a product in VeraCores’ inventory the order will be sent to VeraCore, otherwise the order will only reside in Pressero
Preparation:
The VeraCore integration uses the Aleyant webhooks & External Services. To enable this integration you need to obtain the following from VeraCore:
Setting Up the Pressero VeraCore Integration
(Also see video at bottom of page)
1.0 Login to Aleyant External Services
Aleyant Professional Services will provide you with a username and password to access the custom integration environment at https://external.ams.pressero.com seen below.
1.1 Choose the "Third Parties Integrations" button
1.2 Click VeraCore "Settings" Button
Locate "VeraCore" in your list of embedded services and click its Settings button
1.3 Enter Credentials, Set Order Transfer Trigger
In the Connection Settings, enter the VeraCore System ID, User, Password and RHU URL provided by Veracore. Select the Pressero Workflow status you want to cause the Pressero Order to be sent to VeraCore.
1.4 Managing Your Veracore Products
The list of products that can be imported are shown in this area with the possible import options. The system will take a few minutes to display the list.
Steps to follow to import products:
- The list of products will be displayed at the bottom.
- The customer must select the site into which the products they select will be imported.
- The customer can select the categories to which the imported products will be assigned or check the option "Check this option if you do not want to assign categories to products and prefer to créate the Veracore categories on the selected Pressero site" to create the categories that the product has in Veracore.
- The client can decide that in the products created in Pressero a mandatory field is shown for uploading a file that will be sent to Veracore when the order is finalized.
- He can also select the Pressero workflow to assign to the selected products to be imported.
- He must select for which user groups these products will be accessible.
- Select, by clicking on the check box for each product, as many products as you want to import with those parameters and press the "CREATE SELECTED PRODUCTS" button.
These products will be created automatically in Pressero. The process may take a few minutes.
2.0 Other configuration parameters that are created by Aleyant and should not be modified
This integration will create a webhook* in your Pressero account that will send order data to VeraCore so their system can update inventory and order information.
The VeraCore webhook is in your Pressero admin Preferences > WebHooks area as seen below:
The webhook URL is set by Aleyant in the Settings tab as seen below. Do Not change this.
The Selected Events tab controls when the integration is activated as seen below. Order Placed is used as the trigger. Do not change this.
2.1 Select Stores
In the Selected Sites tab, select the sites (stores) that will use VeraCore products. Any new sites that you want to use VeraCore products will need to be selected here after the site is created.
3. How the integration Works
Once enabled as above, every time an order is placed for products having a PublicPartNumber or PrivatePartNumber code that matches a product ID in VeraCore's inventory, the order will be sent to VeraCore. The OrderSeqID and the OrderID returned by VeraCore will be entered in the Pressero > Orders > "Job #" field as seen below. If there were any errors, an error message will be entered in this field.
SHIPMENTS
Once nightly, Aleyant will sync with Veracore to check for shipped orders, which will update the Pressero Workflow. Please ask ProServices for details on how to do this, if you are interested.
INVENTORY
Inventory will be displayed on the product pages, if your Pressero storefront skin allows it.
NOTES
VeraCore Product Import Interruption. If there is an interruption during the import, only the products before the interruption will have been imported. In the Aleyant External Services, select the site where you imported the products. Products that have been imported will show their SKU crossed out and in red. Also, the imported products will be displayed in the Pressero admin > Sites (select) > Catalog > Products using the VeraCore product name.
Pressero Product Category Assignment. To assign imported products to one or more Categories, use Pressero admin > Sites (select) > Catalog > Catalog Organization just like you would with any other product.
Configuration Parameters. Configuration parameters that are created by Aleyant in the Pressero WebHooks > Settings tab and Selected Events tab as noted in 2.0 above should not be modified.
