Creating a New Marketplace

When setting up a new Marketplace you only need to configure a few settings within NCompass to activate a new Marketplace. This will vary sightly between different marketplace integrations. this guide will follow the general steps for the B&Q integration.

Create a new Web-Site

We will need to create a brand new web-site within NCompass where we will assign the integration type and select the Marketplace Channel.

Step 1 - Making a new Web-Site

On NCompass, go under Administration > Multi-Channel > Web Sites

Create a new website by pressing "New". Give it a descriptive name and select a corresponding price category to list product pricing under.

Set the Channel Type to "Marketplace"

Select the integration type (in this case B&Q)

Make sure the marketplace is enabled

The following settings are needed for API calls to be sent to B&Q:

All you need are the 3 settings above for the minimum B&Q setup

The vast majority of marketplace configs will be present within this Tab instead of Tools > Config

Final Considerations:
  • Create an unmatched product, ensure there is an unmatched web product linked to an actual unmatched item otherwise downloaded orders without a product link will return a BLANK sundry line
