eCommerce Setup

eCommerce Setup



The plugin supports an online store and checkout process that ties directly to Zoho Inventory. 


Note that to activate the page, you will need to set up a separate Wordpress page and install the short code for eCommerce, see this link.


Please see the articles for integrating Zoho CRM and Zoho Finance suite (see here).

Setup:


Begin the 5 step process to set up using this tab. 


Designate the Business Type and Sign up Procedure. 


The Business type B2C will hide the Company Name (Account Name) when a User registers for the online store and in place it will contain the First and Last Name. 

Step 1 - Sign Up Procedure will either allow Users to sign up or be invited.


      

Select Next at the bottom right to continue the set up.

Use the Sync Product Images button to display Zoho Inventory product images in the plugin.


When “Show All Active Products in Store” is selected, the list is static and items cannot be moved from Products in Zoho and Products in Online Store. Deselecting the option will allow you to add or remove items by simply clicking on each item.
