not on the high street (NOTHS) integration Setup

Option Setup


If you sell options on NOTHS & you want to track inventory on Mintsoft - you will need to allocate SKUs to these so that the orders import onto OMS.

You may not have the option SKU manager on your NOTHS platform by default - so you may need to apply to have this added with your NOTHS account manager.

To check if you have got the SKU manager you can edit a product from the NOTHS panel and click on the SKU management tab.

Then you will get an option to Manage SKUs.

If you do not have these options then you need to apply with your NOTHS account manager or you can simply import products against the main listing SKU (but will not work for inventory management of variant SKUS)


If you do not need to manage inventory on Mintsoft, then you can proceed without the SKU Manager.

Generate API Token


Login to your NOTHS store admin panel to create an API token.


Navigate to Settings > API tokens > Generate token

Automatic Dispatch Note Download & Printing

Import Error Mapping

A mapping allows the system to map the various product options that it gets from NOTHS to real products in the system.

When the system trys to import a order from NOTHS - if it is unable to determine what the product is, it will automatically create a new product mapping error that needs to be mapped to products manually in the system.

It will display an error on the dashboard if it is unable to map directly to a product:

Mapping a Manual Product - Example:


You can either click on the link on the dashboard error, or navigate to Connect > Order Integrations> NOTHS > Accounts > Mappings:

Any failed mappings will  display a message stating it needs to be associated to a product, click the edit button in order to map it:

SKU or Ignored Option? - Check the product option before you map it - if the option on the error is not a SKU (for example, a personalisation) - you should add it to the ignored product option list instead of making a product mapping

If the option or product relates to a product then map it manually as below:

Add the product, then tick active and click Create to save the manual mapping.

 

Once created, you can click Edit to add further details:

Ignore Option

If the option title does not relate to a product - then it should be added to the ignored product option list:

Copy / paste or type the ignored option value and click create:
