How to integrate your Clover POS Products with WooCommerce
Now that you have connected Clover and your WooCommerce store to eSync, you can add the needed actions and run a few tests. We suggest adding the Standard Action (non-variant (Matrix)) first.
Note the unique identifier for Clover & WooCommerce is the product SKU.
Create a Simple Products (Send Standard Action) from Clover to WooCommerce
- Item has a SKU
- Item is Active in POS
- Item has a Product Name in the POS
- Item has Inventory Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
- Item has Price Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
- Item has a Category in Clover (categories are required to create new products)
To restrict specific products from going up to your website just add the Print Label ‘instoreOnly’ in your Clover POS.
See the snapshot example for the instoreOnly label. Create Matrix Products (variants) from Clover to Shopify.
- See standard item sync above.
- Matrix (variant) Parent Name needs to match the Clover Parent Name. The parent name is also used in WooCommerce for the parent SKU. The child’s individual SKU names do not matter (just the parent’s), & the individual option SKUs also need to match.
Note: Matrix products need to be built properly in Clover using the POS hardware or the Clover UI.
See the item Variant (Matrix) Example below.
Variant Attributes and Options – Colors, Sizes, etc.
Price adjustments in Clover is a trigger to sync new items, and not inventory. When adding new products, we suggest adding the SKU first, and the price update last. To test, change price by a penny, hit save, and change back, hit save again.
Note: The time stamp for inventory sync from Clover is different from the time stamp to create new products in Clover. So, running your Send Products Action after a sale in your POS will not update inventory. You will need to RUN your Update Inventory Levels Action in this case. To test, adjust inventory, hit save, and change back.
