The goal of this connector is to upload orders that pass through bindCommerce to OpenCart, both for updating purposes, for example to update the status of orders and add information such as tracking number, shipping date and courier, and to upload orders from other platforms to OpenCart.

The execution of the connectors can take place automatically (scheduled procedure), or manually.

Matching creation for order status conversion

Uploading orders to an OpenCart shop requires that correspondences be created between the external order statuses and those registered on your site.
In order to create these correspondences, it is necessary to follow the instructions given in the specific Order Status Normalization tutorial.

Configuration for uploading orders on OpenCart

The first thing to do will be to create a special configuration for the connector that will take care of uploading the orders. Then go to the menu:

eCommerce >> OpenCart >> Order upload

A page will open containing all the possible options to fill in

Common options

In this section we can specify an option for Order Transformation and specify whether the update will be minimal or complete. The minimal update will only send information related to status and tracking number.

Attributes

This tab allows you to indicate, if necessary, the attributes that determine the color and size.

Order uploading connector

Remember that before creating the connector it is necessary to install the OpenCart node on which the connector will operate. After doing this you need to go to the menu:

Process >> Connectors

and click on the Add button.

The following parameters must therefore be chosen:

• Connector Name:Choose a name to identify the connector
• Node type (technology): choose eCommerce OpenCart
• Node: choose the previously created node
• Connector type: choose the type of connector: eCommerce OpenCart [Upload orders to OpenCart]

After having set all the parameters, click on the SAVE AND CONTINUE button. The page will reload and you will be able to parameterize the connector options.

• Configuration: from the drop-down menu indicate the order loading configuration created previously
• Order filter: if necessary, specify the previously created order filter. For more information on this, consult this section of the tutorial: Setting filters on orders.

Once the configurations have been completed, click on SAVE AND CLOSE.

As is already the case for other connectors, the execution can take place manually (by clicking on Execute the connector immediately?), Or automatically by means of a scheduled procedure.
