Stock, locations and FBB/FBK
Which Shopify stock each marketplace sees, buffers, and how offers fulfilled by bol or Kaufland are handled.
Each marketplace shows the stock available at the Shopify locations you choose, minus any buffer you set.
Locations
- In setup, the agent proposes the locations that fulfil online orders, preferring ones in the marketplace's country. Confirm or change them.
- Free feeds each marketplace from one location; Pro and Multi from several (their available stock is added up).
- Marketplace orders are assigned to the order location you pick, and take stock from it.
Buffers
Hold back stock per product in units, as a percentage, or both. With 10 available and a buffer of 2 units, the marketplace shows 8. Buffers never push a number below zero.
When stock goes out
- When stock changes in Shopify (a sale, a delivery, an edit), the new number goes out right after.
- Every 15 minutes, any number that still differs from what was last sent goes out.
- Unchanged numbers are not sent again. bol's API caps stock at 999 per offer.
Fulfilled by bol (FBB) and by Kaufland (FBK)
Stock for FBB and FBK offers sits in the marketplace's warehouse, not yours. Kizing:
- links these offers, so their orders import into Shopify, tagged FBB or FBK;
- never sends them a stock number;
- never takes their orders from your Shopify stock.
The setup scan counts how many of your offers are FBB or FBK.
Price rules (Pro)
Turn on "Set marketplace prices from Shopify" to send each linked variant's Shopify price with a markup and rounding. Prices are checked every hour and only changed ones are sent. Storefronts in another currency than your shop's are left alone.
