EBay Connector

Order Management integrates with eBay to allow sales through eBay auction and storefront listings. eBay listings are created by Jobs that you configure in the Job Manager. You can configure jobs that create listings and export them directly to eBay, or configure Jobs that create listings and separate Jobs that export them. The specific configuration of an eBay listing (type, initial bid, start/ end dates) is defined by the configuration of the Job that creates it.

Some of the features and benefits of the eBay Connector include:

• The ability to reach customers through eBay sales channels and potentially migrate them to your own website
• Management of the entire eBay process, including merchandising, order capture, payment processing, fulfillment, feedback, and customer service
• Auction monitoring
• Customizable auction email communications
• Tools for scheduling the launch of eBay auctions and sales, including the ability to maintain certain levels of inventory for sale
• Complete audit facilities
