ERPLY – Prestashop Inventory Module

We are happy to publish an updated Prestashop inventory module to synchronize products and orders between Erply and Prestashop (version 1.5.3.1). As the module is still in beta, please contact us at integrations@erply.com and we’ll give you the access and setup instructions.

This module allows two-way synchronization of categories, products and customer groups. Also one way (from Prestashop to Erply) synchronization of customers, customer addresses, orders and order history. This guide details the setup and use of the Erply module.

1.   Erply – Prestashop Inventory Connector setup

To start using the module, follow the steps listed below:

Prestashop Install Module

Before synchronizing the products some settings can be made and saved.

Priority – Select which system has higher priority when the same object (product, customer etc.) has been changed in both systems since the last synchronization.

Default Tax – If tax value is not found in product data this value is used.

Export orders from – Initial order export will be made starting from this date.

To begin the synchronization choose the synchronization direction (from Presta to ERPLY, from ERPLY to Presta or both ways) and click the ‘Start’ button.

After the initial synchronization use the ‘Start’ button if you wish to update existing data.

Keep in mind that Erply allows 500 API requests in an hour. If that number is exceeded, an

error message will show. In this case, return to the module page, wait for an hour and try to continue the synchronization by clicking the ‘Start’ button.

To enable automatic synchronization cron_all.php from module folder should be added to server’s crontab.

1.3.   Erply module synchronization details

This module performs a two-way synchronization of the Erply – Prestashop product categories, Erply – Prestashop customer groups and Erply – Prestashop product, so all Erply products and customers appear in Prestashop and all Prestashop products and customers appear in Erply.

In case of Erply -> Prestashop synchronization the fields are mapped as:

1.3.1.                 Category/product group synchronization

Erply PrestaShop
parentGroupID id_parent
name Name
showInWebshop Active

 

1.3.2.                 Product synchronisation

Erply PrestaShop
displayedInWebshop Active
name Name
added reduction_from
added reduction_from
code Reference
code2 ean13
description description_short
longdesc Description
groupID id_category
groupID id_category_default
vatrate id_tax_rules_group (local id is matched by vatrate value)
vatrate id_tax (local id is matched by vatrate value)
price Price
netWeight Weight
brandName id_manufacturer (New manufacturer is added if not found)
supplierName id_supplier (New supplier is added if missing)
supplierName supplier_name
warehouses (sum of “free” field for all warehouses) Quantity is added to product
images Images are added to product

 

1.3.3.                 Customer groups synchronization

Erply PrestaShop
Name Name

 

The module also imports product images only from Erply to Prestashop.

Also, the synchronization module allows you to perform a one-way synchronization of the Prestashop -> Erply customers, customer address, orders and order history, so all Prestashop customers, customer addresses, orders and order histories appear in Erply.

In case of Prestashop -> Erply synchronization the fields are mapped as:

1.3.4.                 Customers synchronization

Erply PrestaShop
firstName Firstname
lastName Lastname
email Email
birthday Birthday

 

1.3.5.                 Customer address synchronisation

Erply PrestaShop
typeID id from Erply API getAddressTypes response
street address1, address2
city city
postalCode postcode
country country

 

1.3.6.                 Orders synchronization

Erply PrestaShop
id Order id if the order is synced before, null otherwise
type “INVWAYBILL” is sent by default
currencyCode iso_code
date date_add
time date_add
customerID Customer id if the customer is synced before, null otherwise
payerID Customer id if the customer is synced before, null otherwise
addressID Address id if the address is synced before, null otherwise
payerAddressID Address id if the address is synced before, null otherwise
internalNotes Prestashop Invoice Number: “invoice_number”
  #productID Product id if product is synced before, null otherwise
  #itemName product_name
  #vatrateID tax_rate
  #amount product_quantity
  #price product_price
  #discount discount

*Shipping is sent as last product.

 

1.3.7.                 Order history synchronization

All updated orders are synchronized with Erply. If the order is deleted from Prestashop it is deleted from Erply also. If the order is paid invoiceState is updated to “READY” with saveSalesDocument update method.

If the order is paid new payment is synced to Erply with field mapping:

Erply PrestaShop
customerID clientID from Erply API getSalesDocuments response
documentID “READY” or “PENDING” depending on the status
date date_add
sum Total from Erply API getSalesDocuments response
currencyCode currencyCode from Erply API getSalesDocuments response
