Hello,

We are back to share what is new with Salestio in a few recent weeks.

Updated Listing Creation Data options for eBay

Products in a different category than the rest of the Selling List might need different Business Policies. Salestio gets a new section in Listing Creation Data to support that:

Dimensions and calculated shipping for Etsy

Etsy Selling Lists now support calculated shipping. To set shipping dimensions, edit your Selling List settings and add size/weight. The new fields support both plain numbers and metafields from your Shopify store:

Status for Etsy accounts

When Etsy authorization expires, Salestio will show an "Expired" badge for this account:

Receive "Canceled" status from Amazon

The app now supports updating the Shopify order to "Canceled" when it changes on Amazon.

Smaller improvements

There is now an option to show 25 items per page in Selling Lists. This can further reduce loading times in lists with a large number of variations.

Product SKU can be copied by clicking it in the Selling List.

• Untracked fulfillment is now supported for Etsy. The platform allows this for orders under 10 USD, so Salestio will update them without tracking (if not indicated).
• Orders with 0 USD total can now be created in Shopify.
• Improved order creation for orders with similar items in a short time. Such orders are no longer delayed.
• Tax can be turned off for eBay orders. Please contact support@salest.io to apply this for your store.

In progress

We want to move Salestio beyond e-commerce stores. Some ideas are currently in development:

Hello,

Salestio Team is here with the current updates on what happening in the app.

In this update, we present more new features and smaller improvements. If you have an idea of how we can make Salestio better for your store, feel free to share your thoughts on our roadmap or contact us at support@salest.io

Cross - Selling List Search

Users with a large number of Selling Lists now can find a specific item faster. To search across all Selling Lists, Navigate to the Selling Lists tab and click the "Find Product" button:

Clicking "View in Selling List" will open the Selling List that contains the item.

Select what to do when stock runs out

We recommend having Out-of-stock control enabled on eBay by default. This way, when a product runs out of stock in Shopify, it will be updated with 0 QTY on eBay.

For users that want to keep Out-of-stock control disabled, a new setting is available in the settings. Navigate to Salestio > Settings > your eBay account and select "Stop the listing on eBay":

Variation mapping

When creating listings on Amazon in certain categories, Amazon requires variation labels to conform with the original field. For example, XS is not accepted, and sellers should use X-Small instead. The new variation mapping allows assigning any custom label for the Shopify variants.

If the variation mapping is not needed, you can hide it by clicking on the "Variation Mapping" button.

Custom text in eBay Creation Profiles

When configuring eBay Creation Profiles, it is now possible to enter plain text in the drop-down menus:

UI updates

eBay statuses are updated to be consistent with other integrations: "Linked" instead of "Active" and "Not Linked" instead of "Not Active" to avoid confusing Shopify product statuses.

Selling Lists: SKU and variations are now displayed below the product title. This layout allows more comfortable viewing on smaller displays:

Better Description Template previews

Instead of random items, you can now select a specific item to preview a description template. All Shopify items are available through search:

Minor improvements

• Optimized loading of Selling Lists for large variation count
• Orders with customized SKUs will display the original one below

In progress

Currently, the team is working on a better onboarding experience, while also continuing to improve product creation on Amazon.

Hi! The team is back to share the news on the latest Salestio developments.

If you have any suggestions or ideas on how we can make Salestio better, feel free to contact us at support@salest.io, or share your ideas on our roadmap.

Revised permission scope

To improve the performance of order location settings, Salestio had to revise its permission scope for existing users. Please make sure to open the app Dashboard and update permissions for the best experience.

SKU mapping selector

A new feature is added to the Salestio Settings tab. Now any user can quickly upload a custom mapping between Shopify product SKUs and marketplace SKUs by themselves.

This feature is useful for sellers that have an extensive product catalog listed already, and need a way to match, for example, a list of Amazon items with the same Shopify items that have a different SKU.

Mappings take effect for order importing on all integrations. For Amazon integration, SKU can be applied to quantity and price synchronization in Selling Lists. If you intend to use the mapping for Amazon listing sync, please contact us at support@salest.io after adding the mapping file.

Users who have been using SKU mappings since before this update have the option to replace their mapping file with a new one at any time. It is also possible to download the current mapping for editing or reference.

Change items before importing orders

This feature may be useful for users who have missed an item in their mapping file. If Salestio cannot find the indicated marketplace SKU in Shopify, the order will fail to be created in Shopify.

To fix this issue quickly, you can click the Change button in the order and select any Shopify item that should be used in this one order. For smooth operation later, we suggest adding/editing the SKU mapping after such an issue is resolved.

The button also updates the item in the Salestio database, which is useful if the Shopify item needs an edit before the order is created. Consider a use case below:

An Amazon item Blue Jeans has an SKU "ABC". Shopify item Blue Jeans has an SKU "XYZ".

1. Salestio imported an Amazon order with Blue Jeans
2. SKU "ABC" does not exist in Shopify, so the order is not created.
3. Edit Blue Jeans SKU in Shopify from "XYZ" to "ABC"
4. In Salestio order, click Change and select the "ABC" item to refresh it
5. Successfully create the order in Shopify as quickly as possible

"Deliver By" note for Amazon and eBay

Some sellers were missing this field, so we added it to Shopify. Now you can find the "Deliver By" date in the Notes section on your imported orders.

Minor updates

• Added Smart rounding feature to Global Profiles. The price can be rounded up to x.x9, x.99, or x.00

• Selling List view and Order view now allow searching on the Enter key press

• Improved labeling of info/error messages in Logs for more clarity
• It is now possible to manage more than 50 profiles of any kind (Global Profile, Creation Profile, etc.)

In progress

Aside from stability updates, the team is improving Amazon Creation profiles. We noticed sellers needing a better way to list products with variations. Currently, we are developing variation mappings, so the sellers can avoid changing item structure in Shopify.

And that's the news for today. As always, feel free to talk to us at support@salest.io if you have any questions or comments!

Wishing you a super festive season from all of us at Salestio! Big thanks for making 2023 awesome with us. We want to recap the best advancements made this year.

New integration

We have been working hard to bring the widest selection of connected markets in a unified app. This year, Shopify app got a fully-featured Etsy integration. Complete with order and product sync, now the app can allow sellers to connect an existing Etsy store or give a headstart for a new one.

Updates and improvements

To our amazing community of users, thank you for making 2023 a remarkable year. Your trust and enthusiasm have been the driving force behind our success. While we faced some challenges along the way, your feedback and support motivated us to overcome obstacles and emerge stronger. This helped us to fix many smaller issues and get inspiration for new ones.

• eBay integration was updated with new features on the platform.
• Amazon creation tools were updated to support exporting new items to Amazon.
• For our eBay and eBay import modules, we updated them to be compatible with the new PrestaShop 8.

Cheers to a fantastic 2024!

Best,

The Salestio Team

Hi!

Salestio Team is here with the current updates on what is new with the app.

If you have any suggestions or ideas on how we can make Salestio better, feel free to contact us at support@salest.io, or share your ideas on our roadmap.

Refreshed look

Along with some background tweaks, the app has been updated to better match the visual style of Shopify. Every part of the UI is now visually integrated with a better look and feel:

Even better logs

Thank you for the feedback on the Dashboard log section! The log messages for orders now contain the order ID from Amazon/eBay/Etsy to locate any troubled orders easily:

Also, the messages are now more clear if an item was stopped or removed from the Selling List specifically by the user. This will help to figure out what exactly brought changes to a particular product:

New "Finished" status for eBay Selling Lists

Now Salestio can recognize that a listing was ended by eBay and indicate such items as "Finished" in the Selling List. This can happen after a period of inactivity: depending on the eBay account, listings have a limited time of inactivity. After 60 or 90 days, if no sales are recorded, eBay will stop the listing. You can Relist this item so the old listing will point to the new one. The "Send to eBay" action will create a separate listing instead.

Notifications for product sync errors

Previously Salestio could send a daily report if sync has failed on one or more Amazon products. Now this feature is also available for eBay sellers. To receive such notifications, enable them in the Settings tab:

Smaller improvements

• Salestio now instantly reads if a product SKU was updated in Shopify.
• Imported Amazon orders are now able to display VAT. If this is what your store needs, please reach our support.
• When stopping/deleting an item from a Selling List, a confirmation window will appear. This will help to avoid accidental deletion of items.
• eBay products with an "Update Error" status now can be stopped right away or when the quantity is changed to 0.

Work in progress

We are thankful for all of the feedback on the new Amazon Creation Profiles. Thanks to the community, we can improve this feature a lot faster. Some notable recent changes:

• Bullet points are moved to the mapping level. It allows adding the key features for the specific product types and/or collections.
• Listing price functionality is improved for products with variations on the US marketplace

Thank you for tuning in today! If you would like to know more about the new features, please reach out to support@salest.io

Hi!

The shopping season is catching up, so most of the team's efforts here at Salestio were focused on improving stability and tweaking the app to be as fast as possible. Still, we have some new features for you to try! Keep reading to know what's new. As always, if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to reach out to us at support@salest.io

eBay: Move items between Selling Lists

We noticed that sometimes sellers need to reorganize how the items appear in Salestio, but that would require stopping the listing on eBay. Now you can move the item to another Selling List while keeping the same status, and active eBay listings will remain untouched.

To move an item, select it in a Selling List, and click on "Move" in the Fast Actions:

Actions in Product Counter Block

Following the recent update, the block with counters became more useful. Now you can perform more actions right from the Dashboard, like updating the products, jumping to the logs, or locating the products in processing:

Better communication with your eBay account

Salestio is designed with Shopify as the home for your products in mind. Still, some users need to make some tweaks and updates on eBay directly. The app will now scan for any stopped items and will reflect the change in the Selling List:

• A new log message will appear in Salestio: "The listing [SKU] was stopped due to the stopped status on eBay."

• If the listing was ended on eBay, it will appear in "Finished" status in the Selling List

Customization message support for Etsy orders

Etsy customization data is now displayed in Notes on your Shopify orders. If you want to learn more about working with customizable items in Salestio, check out our recent article for more details.

Minor improvements and fixes

• Shopify collections are parsed faster and more reliably
• Fixed the specifics display for the "Everything else" category in eBay Creation Profiles
• Logs now differentiate error and info messages more clearly
• Improved QTY updates for listings using eBay Inventory API
• More reliability when reconnecting an expired eBay account
• Email notifications about order fulfillment errors now give more context

Work in Progress

Thank you for all of the feedback on the new Amazon Creation Profiles! Currently, we are working to make a more easy-to-use UI and ironing out the tiny details for each Amazon Product type. Some latest updates and fixes:

• Bullet points now support custom text values
• Fixed the "unexpected marketplace" error for some types of the Seller accounts
• Fixed the invalid recommended browser nodes for Amazon US

Amazon Creation Profiles Beta is available to all users, so check it out in your app. Feel free to report any issues to us at support@salest.io

Hello,

As September approaches, we're excited to unveil the latest enhancements in Salestio. Your input is vital, so don't hesitate to send your ideas or suggestions to us at support@salest.io or via our feature request portal. Let's dive into the September update!

New Etsy integration features

The Etsy integration is getting more and more quality-of-life improvements. Want to check how the listing looks? Now you can do so right from the Selling List. For any currently listed item, click "View on Etsy" to open the listing page:

Some sellers choose to opt out of listing auto-renewal. For expired listings, Salestio will now display such items in "Stopped" status in the Selling List. You can renew the item from there. Also, listings can now be manually stopped from the Selling List:

Etsy limits the time that a seller might be authorized with an app like Salestio. When the time comes, authorizing again is all that's needed. From now on, we will notify you on the Dashboard when an account confirmation is needed. Clicking "Confirm connection" will take you to Etsy for login. Do not worry, this might be needed only once a few months.

Refreshed Dashboard

To improve readability for sellers, we rethought how to present product statistics. Now, statistics cards clearly correspond to the current status of all Shopify items:

• Live — Products that are synced with the marketplace
• Error — Require attention; look for errors in the Selling Lists to resolve
• Pending — Just need some time to get to Live
• No status — Products that are not added to any Selling Lists yet
• Not Active — Added to a Selling List, but not have been sent to the marketplace

Amazon Listing Creation

We are perfecting the ability to create brand-new listings on Amazon. Today, refreshed Amazon Creation Profiles enter Public Beta, available for all Salestio users to try. Check documentation for the new feature here: Creation Profile configuration. All feedback is appreciated, so feel free to let us know your thoughts and findings at support@salest.io

With a new Creation Profile, we allow our merchants to create new Amazon Listings using data from your Shopify products. Highlight of key features:

• Allow creation of Amazon listings with GTIN exemption enabled
• Products could be created with and without Variations details
• Validation and highlighting fields required by Amazon

Minor changes

• Amazon gift message left by the customer now appears in order notes.

• eBay automotive categories on some marketplaces now allow selecting Shopify vendor field as Manufacturer
• Order Tab entries are now sorted by created date, rather than updated date

• Log messages on the Salestio Order Details page are now synced chronologically

What's next?

With order import for Amazon Vendor accounts done, our next goal is implementing quantity sync for the listings. Stay tuned!

Hello again,

Can you believe the summer coming to an end? While the days get shorter, our commitment to enhancing your experience with Salestio remains unwavering. We're excited to share our latest developments and achievements.

If you have a cool idea or a suggestion, feel free to let us know at support@salest.io or leave a feature request.

Import Amazon orders based on Product Title

Salestio uses product SKU to identify products in Amazon orders and correctly create them in Shopify. As a fallback, we added matching based on product titles and variation labels.

The app will compare the exact title on Amazon with title + variation in Shopify. For example:

Amazon title: "Destroyer Gaming Mouse Pink"

Shopify title: "Destroyer Gaming Mouse" color: "Pink"

Keep in mind that some Amazon listings might be added by other sellers with different tastes in product titles, while Salestio will look for the exact match.

More eBay images

Now you can add up to 24 images with each eBay listing! To take advantage of the new limit, go to the eBay profile and crank the slider before running Full Revise on the items:

Etsy integration updates

We are working hard to bring the Etsy integration out of Beta. Aside from stability updates, more about the new features below.

Each connected Etsy account now gets a separate settings tab. Here is what you can customize:

• Disable Etsy order import
• How the customer email appears in Shopify

• Put price or item quantity updates on pause for Etsy listings

We also improved the recently added Inventory tab. Your listings will download in the background, but we added a button if you want to see them ASAP.

There are more minor improvements to Etsy integration:

• The Update action will now refresh the product pictures
• Active Etsy listing will now be stopped if the product is removed, drafted, or archived on Shopify

Yearly plans

To make it simpler and cheaper, we are introducing a yearly option for every available plan. If you prefer stability, head to the Salestio Dashboard and consider making a switch to save up to 20% annually.

Other improvements

• Log messages now give context for automatic updates. There will be a clear indication of why, like "stopped due to product deleted in Shopify" or "added to the Selling List due to Collection change"
• Amazon order ID is now displayed in order logs
• "ReSync" and "Download Inventories" buttons for Amazon now display if the operation is running
• If the order is canceled on eBay, Salestio will update its status in Shopify

What's next?

We continue implementing creation of new listings on Amazon, currently adding the configuration to send variations in Sizes and sending products in batches.

Our utmost enthusiasm is currently dedicated to enhancing our Etsy integration. We will keep introducing exciting new features here, so you can track or even try them yourself. So keep an eye on the future updates!

Hey-hey dear Salestio friends,

How is your summer going so far? We work as hard as bees to add more and more nice and neat improvements and new features to Salestio. Today, we are happy to present you with our recent accomplishments.

As always, if you have any ideas or suggestions on how we can improve, feel free to share them as feature requests, or drop us a message at support@salest.io

Amazon Vendor account

Here at Salestio, we started adding support for the Amazon Vendor Central account. Currently, it is possible to connect your Amazon Vendor Central account to Salestio and get the orders from this account imported to Shopify.

To connect the Vendor Central account, go to Salestio > Accounts, and click the Add account button. Give a name to the account in Salestio, and select the region and the marketplace.

The important part is to put a checkmark on the "Vendor Central account" on the form.

Log in to your account, and confirm Salestio's permissions.

As soon as the account is added, Salestio will start importing the orders.

Note! The orders are imported to Salestio. They are not created in Shopify automatically. To send the order to Shopify, go to Salestio > Orders, and open the needed order.

Click the Export button on the Order details page to create the order in Shopify.

Extended product attributes in the Etsy Creation profile

We are working to add more features to the product creation functionality for the Etsy listings.

With this task, we added the ability to add more product attributes based on the selected Etsy category.

To add more attributes, go to Salestio > Profiles > Creation profile, and click the Add Creation profile button. Optionally, you can use one of the Creation profiles that have already been added to Salestio. Add the values to the top of the page, and start adding (or editing) the new mapping.

After you select the category, you will be presented with additional attributes that you can select.

Note! The available attributes can vary based on the selected Etsy category.

Improvements

• Variation pictures for Etsy listings. Salestio sends the variation images to Etsy depending on how they are added to Shopify. With this improvement, the corresponding image is displayed after the variation is selected on Etsy.
• The ability to import Etsy orders by Product Title. Salestio imports orders based on matching SKUs on Shopify and the selected platform. This functionality has already been implemented for the eBay integration, and now we added it for the Etsy part as well. The titles and variation labels should be exactly the same on both platforms.
• The Shopify Order link for imported orders in the list. As you might have already known, you can filter out the orders that were imported to Shopify. This new link gives a quick way to open the Shopify order page right from the Orders page in Salestio.

• Fixes to Pending Stop & Remove products in the Selling Lists. In some cases, when you clicked the "Stop & Remove" action for the products in the Selling List, the products could have stuck and still were shown in the Selling List in the pending statuses. We added the improvements to this functionality, and the products are removed from this functionality after you run this action.
• Show the platform order ids in the Log messages on the Order page in Salestio. The Logs messages showed the order id from Shopify. With this update, you can see the exact order id the way it is displayed on the platform where it was imported from

• Support for KType attributes for the eBay listings in Salestio. The KType attribute is relevant for the eBay Motors marketplace. You can add it to the mapping in the Creation profile. We have also published the whole article on this functionality in our most recent blog post.

What's in Progress?

We keep working on adding more functionality and adjustments to the Amazon Vendor Central functionality.

The functionality to create new listings on Amazon is currently under development. At this point, we are working on the ability to send images and add the parent-child relationships for the variation listings.

Adding more functionality to our Etsy integration is our priority at this point. As described above, we added new features and possibilities to the existing functionality of product creation and order importing to Shopify. Also, we keep working on the ability to connect existing eBay listings to Shopify products. Stay tuned!

Hello,

Salestio Team is here. We are happy to share with you the most recent updates to Salestio. During this time, we have been working on small and big improvements to the app as well as major tasks that take more time to complete. See more details below.

If you would like to suggest your ideas of how we can make the app better, feel free to contact our support team at support@salesti.io, or share your idea in Salestio roadmap. We would love to hear from you!

Support for the Extended Producer Responsibility for eBay

This regulation is supposed to prevent and manage waste. According to this new law, manufacturers, importers, and eBay sellers are responsible for the entire life cycle of the products they sell.

This feature is important if you sell on eBay France.

From the technical point, it required adding new fields that you can submit in the under Salestio > Profiles > eBay profile. They will be shown if the select marketplace is France.

Last week, we published a detailed article in Salestio Blog. If you would like to find more about this regulation, check the following article: Extended Producer Responsibility Requirements for eBay Marketplace and How it affects sellers 

Improvements

We are constantly working to simplify UX in Salestio and to make the app work better for the specific business needs. Your ideas and suggestions are always welcomed since most of these tasks were completed based on the feedback from Salestio users.

• Moved the "eBay profile" form to the Selling List settings.

This way, you can skip additional step to go to the eBay profile if you need to add a new one or if you need to make changes to the existing eBay profile. You can do so right from the create/edit Selling List form. Here you have the option to save the added eBay profile to use it in another Selling List as a template, or simply add the required fields without adding any templates.

• Added support to send up to 12 images for eBay products.

Previously, it was possible to send up to 9 images but now you can add even more. You can do so in the eBay profile or just in the Selling List settings. Just move the slider to the preferred number of images.

• Added the Log message when the listings were connected via Sync from the Inventory tab.

This message helps to identify how the products were connected. If the products were connected between the two platforms via Sync, the following message is shown: The product [name, SKU] was successfully connected via Sync Inventories.

• Add the Shopify order page link to the Order details in Salestio.

If you would like to check the specific Shopify order from Salestio, you can simply click the order link from the Order Details page in Salestio. It will take you straight to the order in Shopify.

• Added the ability to edit the mappings in the Creation profile for Etsy.

Previously, it was possible to add or remove the mapping from the Etsy Creation profile. With this improvement, you can edit the added mapping anytime you need.

What's In Progress

Our team started working on adding the support for the Amazon Vendor Central account. we have already added the ability to add this type of account to Salestio. The next step is to actually import the orders from this account to Shopify.

The new Creation profile form is on the way. It is on the final stages of beta testing and further improvements to the actual form.

For Etsy integration, we not only added more and more features to the Listing creation functionality but also completed a couple of tasks for the ability to connect Shopify products to existing Etsy listings.

We also working to improve the product creation functionality by giving the ability to add extra attributes depending on the Etsy category. Stay tuned :)

An important part to connect existing Etsy listings to Shopify products is to show the Etsy inventory inside Salestio. We added the main functionality to show the page with search and filtering options. Now, we are working on pulling the inventories from the connected accounts.
