Shipping Settings

Keep SKUs packages toggle

When the Keep SKUs packages toggle is set to ON, the fulfilment will keep the same SKU in the case of the product package.

Example

In this specific case, packages are created within the product section with SKUs like JETF_2, JETF_3, etc.

  • As a result, setting the flag Keep SKUs packages to ON means that the system will leave the SKU unchanged when sending the order to the warehouse.

    • See the below example of an order using the flag

    • The product quantity is set to 1, even though in the SKU and product name is said that there are 4 units of the same product.

  • On the contrary for all other cases, the system will read multiple units of the same product in the FE and add this information for the warehouse when the order is sent for fulfilment.

    • Example of order not using the flag

    • In the above case, it is the system that informs the warehouse about the unit quantity of the product, which is why the Product Quantity field is shown 3.

Clear Web Sales API Cache

By clicking the button Clear WebSales API Cache, the system will clean all history of information that has been shared between API. In this case the connection between CRM WebSales and the orders created on this campaign.

Hence, the Caches of the websales are cleaned in order to not overwhelm the API, for instance, the prices of the order transaction.

Web Key

The Web Key information is generated after the campaign is saved.

  • Website IP: this is left blank as this information is not in use anymore

  • Web Key: is an alphanumeric code that identifies the campaign, each campaign has its own unique webkey. On the campaign website, the web key is used to create its web pages, this information is hardcoded into the website HTML code. The webkey connects the website(s) with the CRM API so the system will recognize each request in the linked campaign.

  • Generate new WebKey: by clicking this button, it will generate a new webkey for your campaign.

Email Settings

In this section, users can set up the confirmation and notification email that customers will receive upon completing a purchase, which can be:

  1. Individual Emails

  2. Bundle of Emails

  3. Leave the Confirmation | Notification Emails for Shopify.

1. Individual Emails

Setting up Individual Emails

In order to set up the individual emails of your website, users should take advantage of the below fields to include all the necessary configurations:

  • Use same SMTP configuration for all templates field: to pick the SMTP to be used for them, by clicking on the - this is a mandatory information

  • Top picks field: select one of the Top Picks available, which is also optional.

From the table, the user can easily spot in each column the below data.

  • Name: the name of the Template

  • SMTP Settings: showing which SMTP has been previously chosen in the Use same SMTP configuration for all templates field

2. Bundled Emails

 

Additional Information about Individual and Bundled emails

By selecting either of the switches, the upsells of the campaign being configured will follow the pattern chosen for the main campaign, allowing upsells to be used for both, main campaigns configured with Bundled Emails and/or Individual Emails.

  • If the main campaign is configured with the switch Individual Emails set to on, then one email message will be sent to each of the upsell payment confirmations displayed on the main order page, one for each upsells at a time.

  • If the main campaign is configured with the switch Bundled Emails set to on, then the main order and all its upsells will generate only one email message to be sent to customers after they reach the Thank You page.

There are 2 scenarios:

  1. If in the Campaigns (main and upsells), the Email Settings have been set as Individual: the confirmations emails will be sent in real-time. In other words, as soon as the main order is placed, the system will trigger the main order confirmation email. The same logic applies to the upsells, as soon as the upsell order is confirmed by the customer, the upsell order confirmation email is sent, and so on.

  2. If in the Campaigns (main and upsells), the Email Settings have been set as Bundled: the confirmation email is sent once the customer has gone through the entire funnel and he/she has reached the “Thank you Page”. However, in case the customer doesn’t go through the entire funnel and does not reach the “Thank you Page”, in this particular case the confirmation email is triggered between 15 to 30 minutes after the order has been placed.

No, it couldn’t. However, please note that due to the cache, orders placed within the first 30 minutes after the update, the order confirmation email could be received with some delay.

Yes, on the Thank You page, for each one of the products is displayed:

  • Price

  • Taxes

  • Shipping fee

  • the Total of the above items (see the below example)

 

Yes, there are. They are:

  • @IsTrialDisplay - Hide HTML tag content

  • @TrialDays - Days for the trial period

  • @TrialRemainingAmount - Total Amount to be purchased after the trial period

Please find attached below an example of a Trial Confirmation Email using these variables:

Setting up Bundled email

In order to set up the individual emails of your website, users should take advantage of the below fields to include all the necessary configurations:

  • Use same SMTP configuration for all templates field: to pick the SMTP to be used for them, by clicking on the - this is a mandatory information

  • Edit bundled email templates button: by clicking on it, users are redirected to the Bundled Emails templates

  • Top picks field: select one of the Top Picks available, which is also optional.

3. Custom Email (Shopify, etc)

By turning ON this toggle, the CRM will not send any confirmation | notification email to the customers. Instead, when the orders will be imported via eOne to Shopify, Shopify will send all emails according to what has been configured in there.
