Installing the Winit Plugin

To add the Winit Plugin to your Channels account, kindly adhere to the following steps:

  1. Access your account and go to the left side of the screen. Click the "Stores" button.
  2. To edit an existing store, click the edit button on the right side. If you need to create a new store, click "+ ADD" above, name it, and use the edit button to make changes.
  3. Go to the Plugins section and Click "+ ADD" to begin the installation.
  4. A window will appear in the centre of the screen. Choose "Winit" from the list of available channels.
  5. Provide the required information:
    • Plugin Name: Input a suitable name in the designated field. Select a meaningful name to you, possibly aligning with your store's name, for clarity in future order references.
    • App Key: Enter the unique key obtained from the service provider. This key will be used to authenticate your application's requests to their app.
    • Authorization Code: Input the code received from the service provider after initial authorization. This code is used to gain access to the API for a limited period or specific purposes.
    • Product Export Country Code: Enter the international country code for the origin country from which products are exported, as defined by the service provider.
    • Product Import Country Code: Input the international country code for the destination country to which products are imported, as the service provider specifies.
    • Push Order Warehouse: Enter the identifier for the warehouse from which orders should be dispatched, as provided by the logistics or inventory management service.
    • Push Order Deliver Way: Input the delivery method to be used for orders, as specified by the logistics service. This method could range from standard to express delivery.
    • Stock Management:
      • Add Products to Winit:
        • Activate this function to synchronise your store products with Winit. Enabling it creates your store products within the MNP system.
        • For example, suppose you intend to retrieve products from a sales channel like TikTok and transfer the product data to Winit. In that case, you must initially activate the product download option from the sales channel. Subsequently, enable the "Add Products to Winit" option to ensure the products are first added to Channels. At this point, the system transmits the product data to Winit. Follow these steps precisely to ensure the products are generated in Winit.
      • Download Products: Use this feature to fetch product information from the Winit plugin and generate corresponding Store products. It also retrieves product quantities from Winit every 3 minutes, updating the plugin quantities accordingly.
      • Auto Sync Stock: This functionality ensures that stock levels across all channels under the store linked to this plugin are regularly updated with quantities received from the Winit plugin every 3 minutes.
  6. Once all fields are populated, finalise by selecting "Save" at the bottom right.
  7. Activate the connection from the top of the screen using the "Is Active" button.
