Let’s look at how to install the BigBuy Prestashop Dropshipping Connector module in a BigBuy Dropshipping 360º Store.

[If you have your own Prestashop, read this article]

1. Go to the section Modules > Module Manager.
2. Carry out a search using the term ‘BigBuy Dropshipping Connector Prestashop’.
3. Click on Configure.

Note: The Prestashop Dropshipping 360º Store is delivered fully configured, except for the association of statuses, which you will need to configure.  Next in this manual, we will explain how to do this.

You will see three tabs: Minimum requirements, Publication and Configuration.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

In this section you will check that your Dropshipping 360º Store meets the minimum requirements.

PUBLICATION

From this tab you will be able to access the Multi-channel Integration Platform for synchronisation

CONFIGURATION

Most of the configurations are configured by default. In this tab you will only be able to configure the following:

Association of statuses

Next, you will see the “Association of statuses” section. Here, you should map out the statuses so that you can relate the Prestashop statuses with the MIP.

You will see three sections which are equivalent to the three main statuses that an order can have on MIP: “Initial status to carry out BigBuy orders” (Order accepted), “In progress” and “Sent”. These are the Multi-channel Integration Platform statuses.

In the dropdown menu that appears in each of these sections, you will see the different statuses of an existing Prestashop order (as you will see, there are many more options than in MIP).

What you need to do at this point is select which Prestashop status corresponds to which Multi-channel Integration Platform status. By default, you will choose the following:

• Initial status to carry out BigBuy orders: Payment accepted.
  By marking Payment accepted, you will be stating that any order with this status in Prestashop will be sent directly to BigBuy to be processed and shipped. If you want to mark various Prestashop statuses, you can do so by holding down the Control key and clicking on them.
  Warning! If, for example, you mark the status “Payment by bank transfer pending” in the first column, when Prestashop detects an order with this status, it will send it directly to BigBuy to process the shipping. If the transfer is not validated further on, the order will already be underway.
• In progress: Preparation underway
• Sent: Sent

Remember to click on Save when you have completed the configuration.
