Bundles
Discover how integration with NetSuite simplifies inventory synchronization and management of bundles in HotWax Commerce, ensuring accurate inventory calculations and order fulfillment updates.
Inventory Synchronization of Bundles from NetSuite to HotWax Commerce
Integration with NetSuite simplifies the inventory synchronization of Bundles in HotWax Commerce. As NetSuite shares a daily morning feed of the inventory of products, it includes the inventory for bundles as well.
Automatic Inventory Management of bundle
NetSuite independently manages the Inventory of Bundles by considering the lowest common denominator among their components. For example: if a bundle comprises a belt and a wallet, where the belt's inventory is 7 and the wallet’s inventory is 10, the inventory of bundles aligns with the lowest available quantity, which becomes 7.
Multi-Location Inventory Handling
NetSuite operates similarly to HotWax Commerce in calculating the Inventory of Bundles across multiple locations, considering the availability of components at each location. If all bundle components are available at a single location, NetSuite considers the Inventory of Bundles for that specific location. For instance, imagine a bundle consisting of a belt and wallet distributed across various locations:
Times Square Store: 5 Belts
Brooklyn Store: 10 Wallets
Broadway Store: 3 Belts and 7 Wallets
NetSuite calculates the inventory of a bundle by computing the lowest available quantity within a single facility. As a result, NetSuite will push an inventory of 3 to HotWax for this bundle, reflecting the available quantity of the scarcest component at one location in the bundle.
Post-Inventory Computation Handling
After NetSuite's inventory calculation for bundles, NetSuite synchronizes the inventory of the bundles to HotWax Commerce like other products’ inventory
Order Synchronization of bundles from HotWax Commerce to NetSuite
When syncing an order containing a bundle to NetSuite, only the bundle's product ID is sent. NetSuite does not require bundle component details as retailers already have bundle-component associations set up within NetSuite to simplify the import process.
Bundle Order Fulfillment Updates from NetSuite to HotWax Commerce
When the bundle is fulfilled from a location in NetSuite, HotWax Commerce receives the bundle's ID in the fulfilled order feed from NetSuite. Processing this information, HotWax Commerce marks both the bundle and its components as fulfilled, ensuring accurate fulfillment status within the eCommerce system.
