Criteria to Create a New Product in WooCommerce from Clover

The Unique Identifier that ties the two systems together is the product SKU

1. Create Simple Products & Update Price (Send Standard Action)

• Item SKU has been updated with new database time stamp in POS.
• Item has SKU in Clover
• Item has a Weight in Clover (not required)
• Item is Active in Clover
• Item has a Product Name in Clover
• Item has Inventory Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
• Item has Price Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
• Item has a Category in Clover
• Product Description in Clover (not required)

To restrict specific products from going up to your website just add the Label ‘instoreOnly’ in your Clover POS.

See snapshot example for instoreOnly label.

2. Create Matrix Products & Update Price (Send Matrix Action)

• Item SKU has been updated with new database time stamp in POS.
• Each Item has a unique SKU in Clover
• Item has a Weight in Clover (not required)
• Item is Active in Clover
• Item has a Product Name in Clover
• Item has Inventory Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
• Item has Price Value (Zero or higher) in Clover
• Item has a Category in Clover
• Product Description in Clover (not required)

Note: Matrix products need to be built properly in Clover using the POS hardware or the Items Variants App. We highly suggest using the Clover plug-in Items Variants App. All SKU’s in Clover must be unique See Video Example Creating Matrix Items with Variants in Clover POS & Syncing to WooCommerce

Criteria to Sync Inventory with Existing Products Run your inventory only Actions to update inventory to WooCommerce after a new product has been created. You will also need to update your inventory time stamp after in order to trigger new inventory updates.

Note two way inventory sync requires orders sync and item stock update based on WooCommerce orders created in Clover.

Action name: Clover adjust item stock for matching orders from WooCommerce then tag orders esyncExported. Please contact us in Support if this Action isn’t visible and we can activate it for you.

3. Sync inventory only Standard Products Action. (Send Standard Inventory Action)

• Item has a new time stamp in Clover POS.
• Item has a SKU in Clover
• Item is Active in Clover

4. Sync inventory only Matrix Products Action. (Send Matrix Inventory Levels Action)

• Item has a new time stamp in Clover POS.
• Each Child product Item has a SKU in Clover
• Item is Active in Clover

Note: The time stamp for creating products in Clover is different from the time stamp to update inventory only 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.

Simply view your TASK Activity logs and Upload the Full log to a Support Ticket for further assistance.
