Standalone PrestaShop integration with wholesalers

Enjoy the flow of information between wholesalers and your PrestaShop store

We designed the module so that you can integrate your store with wholesalers, suppliers and your own XML and CSV feeds on your own.

The module will connect to local and remote XML and CSV files for you . Select the data you want to transfer and run the import. You can modify the settings of each feed at any time: add, omit and modify products before they hit the store.

Order in the product catalog

The module assigns wholesalers to imported products, which ensures order in your data, no duplicates and selection of the best offer.

The importer allows you to integrate the same file several times, e.g. a complete import first and then a repeat operation, e.g. to update only prices and stock on a regular basis. You can also import the same product from multiple suppliers, or skip importing selected products if you don't want to have in your offer.

List of added XML and CSV feeds. Upload files manually, via URL or FTP.

Fast and flexible operation

You can specify the data to import and rely on full automation or perform advanced operations on the data.

PShowImporter allows you to import selected manufacturers, advanced category mapping and skipping, exchange rate conversion, markup calculation, merge and edit product information, import conditions for any data, multistore, support advanced inventory, import attributes and generate combinations, search and replace data, and much more....

Precise import configuration: category mapping (assign categories from a file, to existing categories in the store).

Integration in 5 steps

Once a file (feed) is configured, it starts updating data in your store. You can edit, duplicate or disable each configuration at any time. Don't worry about the effects of the operations performed - the module' s work log will inform you about correctly performed imports or the occurrence of errors. The module will guide you through the process of adding, configuring and importing data in 5 steps:

1. List your integrations. Add and then manage XML and CSV product feeds from your suppliers.
2. Assign tasks. Define what operations you want the module to perform. Its tasks include importing, updating and adding new and disabling unavailable products. In this step you will also adjust the import language, multistore store and other global settings.
3. Configure data. Decide which data from the file you want to transfer to the store, and then customize, skip or use the default settings.
4. Personalize import. In this step you will access advanced settings. Skip manufacturers, map categories, set import conditions, and add, search and change data.
5. Finalize integration. Start the import manually or fully automatically. You can stop the process at any time and return to it later. With the module, you can run imports and updates without contact using CRON, SSH and multi-file queuing.

Work with multiple wholesalers

Integration with multiple wholesalers can trigger duplication of products that are available in several wholesalers at the same time. A module from PrestaShow solves this problem.

The importer from PrestaShow allows you to assign products to a specific wholesaler. The effect you get is that there are no overwrites or duplications. Your assortment starts to be updated, for example, by wholesalers that offer the product at the lowest price, or goes to independent warehouses if you use PrestaShop's Advanced Warehouse module.

With the importer from PrestaShow, a single import configuration replaces many manual operations. In this way, you personalize your assortment, save time and don't burden the server.

Queuing multiple integrations - the way to import

You can configure an independent CRON for each feed, or you can use a single CRON for the entire queue of files.

If you integrate with multiple wholesalers, the module introduces the convenience of queuing files for import. Add files to the queue. The files you configure run one by one, according to the settings for each file.

Queuing allows you to integrate and update data from multiple wholesalers without involving you in the process.

Support for all fields in the PrestaShop catalog

The import and update mode includes all data on the product catalog, categories, features and attributes, which you can automate to complete and update with our module. Start working conveniently with features such as:

Markup support for all price types

You can import and update net, gross, unit, specific and purchase price. For each price, you can set a markup with price ranges, for example: for a net price of 10-15 PLN, charge 10%, and for 15-50 PLN, charge 4% markup.

To perform more precise and automating operations on prices, such as markup, mark-up, price rounding and more, check out our Price Master module - intelligent price management.

PrestaShop Importer and Price Master module work together

Import data for international sales

Import in multiple languages, different currencies and to different warehouses.

Support multiple suppliers

Import and update the same item from multiple suppliers. With the importer from PrestaShow, you'll take advantage of all the capabilities available in PrestaShop;

Import and update specific prices

Automate adding and updating specific prices. PShowImporter allows you to transfer all fields related to Specific Prices;

Features, attributes and combination generation

Generate combinations based on attributes in the file. The Importer will do this automatically. You do not need to use additional modules and combination generator for this purpose.

XML feed configuration: Match data from the file to fields in your PrestaShop store. You can further configure each matched field so that the flow of information from the wholesaler to the store works according to your needs.

Fill in missing data

Your XML and CSV files are missing data? With the module, imported or updated products, can be supplemented with manually added values.

For example, create a field with the content "SONY" and adjust it as "Manufacturer Name", or "Feature: Manufacturer". The importer will add the above information to all products as if it were in the imported XML or CSV feed.

The module provides the freedom to modify the files. You can combine multiple fields into one, e.g. "Manufacturer + Name + Feature: Color" = "Product Name ". You can use the "Search and Replace" option, which will allow you to replace any phrases with ones that you can better use, for example, in positioning or branding your brand.

Control over performance

The specifics of your infrastructure will be fully utilized. The module exploits the potential and RAM of multiprocessor servers, thus handling small and very large XML files.

PShowImporter works with FTP and VPS servers, dedicated machines and data clouds (Google Cloud, Azure, AWS). Server performance improves the speed of data import and update. Refer to the REQUIREMENTS tab for the necessary configuration of the hosting on which you want to run our module.

Change control - importer work log

The module resolves anomalies during integration on an ongoing basis. The technologies we used recognize and fix errors that appear in XML and CSV feeds.

During the import, a complete log is created, which shows the operations performed, errors detected, or products omitted.

You can generate a log with only newly added and excluded products.

The importer's operation log records all the activities performed by the module. It also informs about the occurrence of errors and omissions during integration. The log is generated each time you run an import or update. You can view it during import, in the module or as a txt file on the server.

Automation via CRON and SSH

The module handles data imports and updates, relieving you of the responsibility of manually running and supervising imports. PShowImprorter will perform the scheduled operations on a fixed day and time. Each configured file can receive its own direct CRON import link.

For example, if you are performing integration with multiple wholesalers, you can set up files in a queue. Thanks to the queue, they will run one by one, and you will be able to run only one link responsible for the queue in the CRON configuration.

Integration with sales platforms

If you want to integrate with product catalogs from another store or migrate another PrestaShop store to your PrestaShop store, you can use Feeder. With the Feeder module you will export products from PrestaShop to XML files, and then carry out the import using the Import Manager.

Integration between two PrestaShop stores

Import Manager works fully with Feeder module to provide instant, two-way integration of PrestaShop 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 stores.

PrestaShop integration with wholesaler APIs

PShowImporter features PrestaShop integration with wholesaler API. If your wholesaler only makes products available via API, we can prepare a call that will transfer products from API to PShowImporter, which will import them according to your settings into PrestaShop.

In order for us to quote for API integration prepare:

• API documentation of the wholesaler (the wholesaler should provide it, e.g. in PDF format)
• Access to the API test account

Then write us an email - you can use the Contact Us tab.

Multistore support

Using our module you can import and update products in multiple Multistore stores. The importer will allow you to perform operations on all or selected stores. Multistore support through the Importer module is optional and extra paid. Depending on your needs, you can buy Importer with Multistore support or buy it later.

Advanced Inventory Support

Advanced Stocks is a standard feature of PrestaShop 1.6, which you can enable in your store settings. PrestaShop developers removed the Advanced Stocks feature in PrestaShop 1.7, so we created the Advanced Stock s module for PrestaShop 1.7.

The PrestaShop Importer module works together with the Advanced Warehouse States module.

The addition of import support for multiple warehouses is essential for the proper functioning of the Importer Module with Advanced Warehouses. You can purchase import support for Advanced Warehouses right away with Importer or at any future time.

PrestaShop store enhancements - completely free.

In the module settings, you can enable features not available in PrestaShop, which will help you conveniently integrate with any wholesaler and supplier:

1. Combination price is the total price of the product (and not the impact on the product price)
2. Additional field "Combination description" - The customer, after changing the combination, sees its individual description.
3. Additional fields "Combination dimensions: length, width, depth, weight".
4. Show update date on the product page - use the date to inform customers that the stock is up to date
5. Automatic Technical Break while the importer is running

Complete data import to PrestaShop

The importer allows you to import more than 150 interactive fields from XML feeds, CSV and API integrations into your PrestaShop store. The fields you can import and update are described in the HelpDesk Knowledge Base
