Discover how to utilize Importify’s Product Distribution feature to completely automate your product catalog delivery to merchants operating on WooCommerce and Shopify.
Why Use Product Distribution?
Manual stock sheets and constant manual syncing are things of the past. With Product Distribution enabled, you can select items by their specific categories, tags, or brands and sync them just once.
From there, our real-time system handles the rest:
- Real-Time Inventory Safeguards: Your interconnected merchants instantly receive updates when your stock levels fluctuate, ensuring they never accidentally sell an item that is out of stock.
- Instant Pricing Updates: Any pricing adjustments you make on your backend—whether prices go up or down—reflect on your merchants' stores automatically.
- Enhanced Retail Experience: Keeping your network accurate in real time improves the customer experience across all retail channels and prevents costly order fulfillment disputes.
How to Enable Product Distribution
Follow these steps to configure automated distribution from your WordPress site:
- Navigate to the Feature: Log into your WordPress dashboard, locate the Importify Supplier menu on the left sidebar, and click on Product Distribution.
- Select Your Filters: On the Product Distribution page, you will see your inventory automatically grouped by Categories, Tags, and Brands.
- Activate the Automation: Simply check the boxes next to the specific categories, tags, or brands you want to make available to your merchants, and click Sync.
⚠️ Note: You only need to click sync once. Once a group is activated, our system takes over. You will only need to revisit this page if you want to add an entirely new category, tag, or brand to your export pipeline.
Set It and Forget It
With Automated Product Distribution active, you no longer have to worry about compiling daily or weekly product updates for your retailers. Your network will permanently stay in sync with your live inventory, giving you a completely hands-off distribution workflow.
