As a marketplace owner, you may invite Magento sellers to your marketplace so they may onboard their products and wait for orders to be pulled from your marketplace to their Magento dashboard for fulfillment. Once fulfilled, the shipment tracking information will be pushed from their Magento store to your marketplace. It’s all automated.

Your Magento seller might be using a number of 3rd party solutions such as an inventory management solution, a Warehouse Management System, a PoS, or an ERP. All of these systems speak to each other to keep your seller’s Magento store up to date and supplied with the latest and accurate information. Your marketplace uses the latest Magento information so all of these systems should always stay in sync. There is no need for any additional integration work apart from making the initial connection.

All orders coming from your marketplace to your seller’s Magento dashboard are just regular orders as any other and are included in Magento sales analytics. These marketplace orders are designated with the sales channel description “Vendo Connect” so your sellers may filter their sales by that descriptor and track your marketplace sales channel performance.

Upon the initial Magento store connection to your marketplace, there will be an initial sync performed but also any future product catalog, inventory, shipping, tax or other changes will be synchronized in real-time. So there is no risk of overselling or a need for manual updates on your marketplace.

Once the Magento seller fulfills your marketplace order in their store dashboard, the shipment tracking information will be synced back with your marketplace. Vendo Magento sync is fully automated that way.
