To start using QuickSync:

    1.    Sign up or log in to your account on QuickSync.pro.
    2.    Connect your sales channels through the dashboard.
    3.    Configure syncing settings based on your needs (e.g., inventory, products, or orders).

3. Can I choose what to sync?

Yes! QuickSync’s Selective Syncing feature lets you pick exactly what to sync. You can:

    •    Apply filters (e.g., name, category, vendor) to target specific items.
    •    Import an Excel sheet for bulk syncing.

4. Can QuickSync handle multiple stores on the same platform?

Yes! You can connect multiple stores from the same platform (e.g., two Shopify stores) and sync them independently or collaboratively.

5. Does QuickSync work in real time?

Yes, QuickSync ensures real-time updates for inventory, products, and orders across all connected platforms.

 

Inventory Syncing

1. What is inventory syncing, and why is it important?

Inventory syncing ensures that stock levels are updated automatically across platforms. For example, if an item is sold on Shopify, the available stock is reduced on Etsy, Amazon, or any other connected channel. This prevents overselling and stockouts.

2. How does inventory syncing work?

QuickSync keeps your inventory levels consistent across all connected platforms. It:

    •    Syncs stock changes in real time.
    •    Supports multi-location inventory management.
    •    Adapts to platform-specific rules (e.g., Shopify allows negative stock, while Etsy enforces a minimum of 0).

2. How does QuickSync handle multi-location inventory?

QuickSync allows you to map stock levels across multiple locations, such as warehouses or retail stores, and sync these specific stock levels with connected platforms.

3. What happens when there’s a mismatch in platform rules (e.g., Shopify vs. Etsy)?

QuickSync intelligently handles platform-specific rules:

    •    If Shopify stock goes negative, Etsy will display the minimum allowed value (0).
    •    QuickSync continues tracking the actual stock level in the background and updates it when replenished.

4. Can I stop syncing inventory for specific products?

Yes, you can use the Selective Syncing feature to exclude certain products from inventory syncing.

 

Product Syncing

1. What is product syncing, and how does it help?

Product syncing ensures that product details, including titles, descriptions, images, prices, and variants, remain consistent across platforms.

2. Can I choose one platform as the main source for product updates?

Yes, QuickSync allows you to designate a Master Store (e.g., Shopify). Updates made in the Master Store are automatically applied to all other connected platforms.

3. How does product syncing work with a Master Store?

QuickSync allows you to designate one platform (e.g., Shopify) as the Master Store. All product updates made in the Master Store are automatically synced to other connected stores.

4. What happens if products don’t have SKUs?

QuickSync can automatically generate SKUs for products that don’t have them, ensuring smooth syncing across platforms.

5. Can I update product details selectively?

Yes! With Selective Syncing, you can sync specific products by:

    •    Filtering by attributes (e.g., tags, categories).
    •    Uploading a list of products via an Excel sheet.

6. Can I transfer products from one platform to another?

Yes, QuickSync allows you to transfer product data from one platform to another (e.g., Shopify to Etsy) during the syncing process.

 

Order Syncing

1. How does order syncing work?

Order syncing consolidates orders from all sales channels into a designated Fulfillment Store (currently Shopify or Clover). It syncs key order details like:

    •    Line items
    •    Order notes
    •    Shipping and discount details

2. What details are included in order syncing?

QuickSync syncs the following order details:

    •    Line items
    •    Order notes
    •    Shipping details
    •    Discount information

3. How does QuickSync handle unmatched products in orders?

QuickSync tries to match line items with products using SKUs. If no match is found, it creates the item as a Custom Item in the Fulfillment Store to ensure the order is processed.

 

Forex & Currency Conversion

1. How does Forex & Currency Conversion work?

QuickSync automatically converts product prices into different currencies based on real-time exchange rates. It supports:

    •    Conversion between any two currencies.
    •    Intelligent rounding for user-friendly pricing (e.g., $123.26 becomes $123.49).

2. How does price rounding work?

QuickSync applies smart rounding for customer-friendly display:

    •    If the fractional value is ≤ 0.50, it rounds to +0.49.
    •    If the fractional value is > 0.50, it rounds to +0.99.

3. How are exchange rates updated?

QuickSync updates exchange rates hourly using trusted APIs (e.g., Open Exchange Rates API).

4. What happens if exchange rates aren’t available?

If QuickSync can’t fetch the latest rates, it uses the most recent stored rates to ensure uninterrupted operation.

5. Can I change my base currency?

Yes, you can set any currency as your base currency in the settings. By default, QuickSync uses USD.
