Configure inventory tracking in PackageBee

1. In your PackageBee Dashboard, click Stores.

2. Click the name of your Business Catalyst store.
3. In Connection details, for Custom field, enter the Tracking Number Field Name. (Make sure it's identical to the name in Business Catalyst.)

4. Click Save changes.

With this configuration, the Tracking Number field will appear under Custom fields in the PackageBee Orders entity.

Inventory control sync

When the PackageBee connection is set to Enabled, inventory control sync is enabled automatically.

If order status is not synchronizing correctly, ensure that the Product Code matches the Product SKU as configured by your fulfillment provider in the warehouse.

Note on product variations

PackageBee will import and process orders with product variations, such as size and color. However, due to limitations in the API, PackageBee will not automatically update the inventory levels for products with variations in Business Catalyst.
