Infoplus Integration

In This Guide

Order Desk can send orders directly to Infoplus then pull shipment details back into your orders here and send them to your shopping carts, if applicable.

Setup

To enable the integration, click on the Manage Integrations link in the Integrations menu in the left sidebar. Under the Fulfillment tab, find and enable Infoplus. 

Alternatively, search for Infoplus from the available integration search.

In the integration page, add your Infoplus credentials to connect.

Please note that Order Desk isn’t able to help find or reset your credentials, as they can only be provided by Infoplus.

Integration Settings

After Import, Move To

Select the folder orders should be moved to after they are sent to Infoplus from Order Desk. Typically this is set to Prepared, but any custom folder can be used.

After Shipment, Move To

Select the folder orders should be moved to when Infoplus sends tracking details back to Order Desk.

Carrier ID

Enter the ID of the default carrier you’ll be using.

Inventory Syncing

Sync Inventory

If you would like Infoplus to send inventory reports to Order Desk, enable this setting. If enabled, your stock counts will be pulled into Order Desk on the interval selected in the next setting.

Sync Update Interval

If Sync Inventory is enabled, select the interval you would like Order Desk to pull in inventory updates from Infoplus.

Inventory Location Name

By default, inventory updates will add Infoplus as the location name on each item updated. If you would like to override this to use a different name, add that here.
