- Total Sales: The cumulative revenue generated via Amazon.
- Total Orders: Total number of customer orders received.
- Shipped Orders: Number of orders successfully fulfilled.
Best Practice: Keep shipped orders close to total orders to maintain a strong Amazon seller rating.
The Extras section provides advanced tools and settings to help you customize, monitor, and optimize your Amazon integration. Each option is designed to give you more control over product mapping, synchronization, and error handling.
1. Configurations
The Amazon Configuration section is where you set the foundation for how your Magento store connects and communicates with Amazon. Think of it as the control panel where you decide how products, orders, and updates flow between the two platforms.
When you open this section (from Extras → Configuration → CEDCOMMERCE → Amazon Configuration), you’ll see four key sub-sections:
- Amazon Settings: This is where you enable or disable the integration and set your general preferences.
- Amazon Product Settings: Here, you define how products from your Magento store will be synced to Amazon.
- Amazon Order Settings: This section controls how Amazon orders will behave once they land in your Magento store.
- Amazon Cron Settings: This is where you automate tasks with scheduled cron jobs (background processes).
Best Practice: Keep your sync intervals aligned with Amazon’s update cycles for real-time accuracy.
2. Category
This section helps you map your store categories with Amazon’s category structure.
- Browse Nodes: Select the appropriate Amazon category for your products.
- Category Mapping: Match your internal store categories to Amazon’s taxonomy.
- Validation Checks: Ensure the mapped category supports the product type before publishing.
Best Practice: Always map products to the most specific sub-category to increase discoverability.
3. Attribute
Manage and map product attributes between your store and Amazon.
- Attribute Mapping: Link store attributes (e.g., size, color, material) with Amazon’s required attributes.
- Mandatory Fields: Ensure required attributes are correctly mapped for successful product publishing.
- Custom Attributes: Create and map custom fields if your product requires extra details.
Best Practice: Double-check attribute mappings for variation products (size, color) to avoid listing errors.
4. Queue
Monitor and track ongoing sync processes here.
5. Feed
Manage your product and order data feeds to Amazon.
- Feed Uploads: Review product, pricing, and inventory feed submissions.
- Processing Reports: Get detailed status updates from Amazon (queue/processed).
- Resubmit Option: Quickly resend failed feeds after resolving issues.
Best Practice: Always review processing reports to spot and fix listing errors before resubmitting.
6. API Change Log
Stay updated with Amazon API modifications and integration updates.
