Product Type
Learn how to manage Shopify product types in HotWax Commerce for easy inventory and order processing.
Shopify Product Type Mapping within HotWax Commerce addresses the needs of retailers selling non-physical products like gift cards, loyalty cards, or digital goods. These products lack a physical presence, requiring a distinctive approach to inventory management and order fulfillment. HotWax Commerce automates this by marking digital products as completed upon download, eliminating the need for a traditional fulfillment process.
The significance of Shopify Product Type Mapping lies in its ability to integrate product categorization between Shopify and HotWax Commerce. By mapping product types, retailers can ensure accurate tracking, reporting, and efficient handling of various product categories, particularly digital items.
