Magento Integration Introduction

Magento Integration Introduction

Magento is an eCommerce platform that provides online merchants with a flexible shopping cart system. Combining Unleashed and Magento creates an ‘out of the box’ ERP solution that will super charge your business.


Before You Integrate

  • Magento can be installed and configured in many ways and can have third party plug-ins installed which may conflict with the Unleashed integration. Before integration, contact support@unleashedsoftware.com or ensure you do a comprehensive test for all possible scenarios.
  • We recommend using a test copy of your Magento store and a trial of Unleashed to test if the integration is possible.
  • Ensure you have selected the correct configuration settings. For more information, see Magento Integration setup.
  • Sales Invoices from Magento are imported into Unleashed as Parked Sales Orders. You must manually complete the orders.
  • Magento allows you to do "part invoices" which means that your order number and invoice number may have a different number or sequence.
  • Changes are synchronized every 15 to 30 minutes.  
  • If your server blocks traffic you can whitelist the following IP addresses on your Magento server:
    • 13.70.86.55
    • 13.75.150.153

Supported Product Types


Supported Magento product type Description Example Notes
 
Simple
  
Simple products are individual products each with a unique SKU.
  
  • Basket
  • Flowers
  • Chocolates
  • Wrapping paper
  
 
Configurable
  
Products which can be configured with different options.
You cannot purchase the PROTEINBAR, but rather a flavor of PROTEINBAR that is grouped up and displayed in Magento for customers to choose.
 
Configurable Master product = PROTEINBAR
Available product configurations (i.e; Simple Products):
  • PROTEINBAR_STRAWBERRY
  • PROTEINBAR_CHOCOLATE
  
Changes made to product types and configurations in Unleashed are not updated in Magento.
 
Bundle
  
  • Simple products can be grouped together to be sold as a bundle product.
  • Bundle products are made up of multiple simple products.
  • Bundle products need to be set as Assembled and auto-assembled. Simple products within a bundle need to be set as component products.
  • Generally the bundle is sold at a discounted rate compared to buying each product separately.
  
Simple products:
  • Basket
  • Flowers
  • Chocolates
  • Wrapping paper
Bundle product: Gift hamper
 
 
  
To handle this in Unleashed, there is a feature known as "auto-assembly". When you sell the bundle, Unleashed will remove each of the components out of stock and add them to the finished product with a single sell price.
For example: When you sell a Gift Hamper, it will automatically reduce the stock levels of the products which are included:
  • Basket
  • Flowers
  • Chocolates
  • Wrapping paper 
We currently support fixed pricing on bundle products.
