Synchronize Inventory
Once the K2K integration has been set up, the next step consists
of synchronizing
the Vendor Company (VC) and the Buyer Company (BC) inventory
to be published in the sales channels of the BC.
Synchronization Rules
The inventory of the Vendor Company has to accomplish these rules to be synchronized:
The Inventory Type must be Open Market.
The product
must have a price.
The product must be in boxes.
The product cannot be
on hold.
The aging of the product cannot be more than
ten days.
The product box
must have Box Dimensions.
If the setting Min Age and Max Age for the E-commerce are activated, the inventory products to be published will be restricted based on the age set up; however, if the Max-Age is set at less than
ten for a K2K product, this will mean that the max-age of less than
ten will overwrite the
ten days Max Age default setting.
The Local After value
setup will also be considered by product or category
. This value will override the Max. Age setting, meaning that if you have a product with a Max-Age value of 7 but the Local After the value is set at 6, a product with
aging of 6 will not be synchronized.

If the multicurrency option is enabled in the Buyer Company and the Vendor Company has a different currency, it will be mandatory to set up the exchange rate for the Vendor Company in the Buyer Company so the product is correctly synchronized (read Assign a Currency to a Vendor for further information). |
Vendor Company
To publish the inventory in the Buyer Company
, the first step is to have an Open Market Inventory that complies with the conditions described
Instructions

Add Products to the Open Market Inventory
The product must be added to the Open Market Inventory.
Confirm the product in the Staging Area.
Verify the products have the conditions described
in Synchronizing inventory. You can modify the features from the pricing tab.
The products will
only be available in the VA Staging Area of the BC
if the product description requires mapping.
Buyer Company
Add Products to K2K
Once the K2K Integration has been accomplished, we can search for K2K products of the Vendor Company. Follow the steps below.
Go to
Search for the desired product and, if needed, map it.
Confirm the product from the VA Staging Area.
The system will automatically post the product on the Available Items page if the product is mapped.
It is possible that the box type of the product has not been created yet in your company. If
that is the case, you must
create the box type first and
wait for the next day since K2K products are synchronized at midnight.
Products Displayed in K2K Connections
Once the product displays the K2K black icon
, it will be available to order through a Prebook,
Standalone PO, and
in the buyer company’s E-commerce
. The system will also display the product
image in K2K Connections.
