Overview

eBay/Amazon/Rakuten/PLAY.COM Magento Integration - Order Importing and Stock Level Synchronization

NOTE:Amazon and Rakuten, PLAY.COM integration currently available for Community and Enterprise versions. The Magento GO users will be able to have Amazon/Rakuten integration during the summer.

The M2E Pro extension fully integrates Magento into eBay, Amazon and Rakuten, PLAY.COM platform. This allows quick and simple creation as well as management of product listings (inc. automated synchronization of stock levels, pricing, and product details), import of eBay/Amazon/Rakuten order, automated feedback posting for buyers and many other tasks which significantly reduce time required for listing maintenance.

The extension interacts with all 23 major eBay, 7 Amazon and 2 Rakuten (USA and UK at the moment) marketplaces. It supports multiple eBay/Amazon/Rakuten accounts and multiple Magento stores.

The M2E Pro listings are based on 3 types of templates: Selling Format, Description and General which provides flexibility and minimizes efforts.

  • Selling Format Template contains information about listing types, quantities, auction duration and specifies price-related data (including that of Best Offer).
  • Description Template sets products “look and feel”.
  • General Template contains basic settings which are required for successful eBay listing.

The listing data synchronization between Magento and eBay is governed by Synchronization Template.

The Activation / Deactivation Actions, Revise, Relist and Stop rules within templates support implementation of numerous synchronization strategies that can be applied to relevant listings. (i.e. multiple updates: quantity, price, title, description for some items while only quantity for others.) Furthermore it is possible to schedule product actions (list, relist) on eBay.

User friendly interface delivers: simple overview, “one click” & “bulk” management (i.e. revise, relist, and stop) of listed eBay items, quick navigation to those items placed on eBay and products association in Magento store.

Besides managing items listed by M2E Pro, the extension fully supports (relist, stop) actions for products listed by any other tool (eBay, ChannelAdvisor, Auctiva, TurboLister, etc).

The most important feature of the extension is the ability to import eBay Transactions and to create Magento Orders. As far as order management, the extension treats eBay originated orders as regular Magento orders.

Order fulfillment process is reflected on eBay. (i.e. when shipment is created, an eBay order gets “Shipped” status. If a shipment has a tracking number, it is also posted to eBay).

There are flexible settings for eBay Transactions and Customer importing, which can be set for each eBay account individually.

It is possible to maintain a mapping between eBay Order status and Magento Order statuses. Another useful feature allows products that are sold only on eBay to be imported later into Magento catalog for order processing.

Additionally plug in has the ability to enable auto- response for buyers’ feedbacks using the predefined response templates. Those feedbacks settings and templates also can be set for each eBay account individually. Depending on settings auto responses can be sent either for Positive feedbacks or for any other feedback type.

There are various global configuration options. It is possible enable/disable certain synchronization globally - for all eBay accounts at one place. Also there are options, which allow enable/disable useful notifications (i.e when cron job is not run for last 12 hours or new negative feedback was received from buyer). In the Marketplaces section, you can enable eBay Marketplaces you will work with.

There are various global configuration options available: not limited to synchronization for multiple eBay accounts (i.e. one point of entry), notifications (enable/disable) management (i.e cron job delay or negative feedback alert).

Marketplaces section allows activation of any of eBay Marketplaces.

Finally the extension has excessive logging:

  • Listings Log – provides full information about listings during their life cycle (creation, addition to a catalog, listing on eBay, product related changes (price, quantity, etc), actions (Revise, Stop, Relist, Delete Item(s), eBay notifications, Listing deletions, etc.).
  • 3rd Party Listings Log – contains full information on 3rd Party Listings during their life cycle. (Import of 3rd Party Listings from eBay, 3rd Party Listings actions (Stop, Relist), eBay notifications, etc.).
  • Synchronizations Log – contains Templates, Orders, Feedback and 3rd Party Listings Synchronization related errors.

Users, if necessary, are able to automatically clean log files.

Been using this for a while, and it is incredibly useful and saves me lots of time! However, i just received this error message; 'Server connection is failed. Please try again later.'. It seems obvious at first, but then not. Can you please explain which server, my local or ebay this is meant to relate to? many thanks, and keep up the good work! nigel August 1, 2012
I tried to install this over 1.6.2, but i always got the following error, and i can not see my store and i have to uninstall it immediately. Anyone knows the reason? Exception during cache and session cleaning: Error in file: "/chroot/home/iscopeco/iscopecorp.com/html/app/code/community/Ess/M2ePro/sql/M2ePro_setup/mysql4-upgrade-3.2.0-3.2.1.php" - SQLSTATE[42S21]: Column already exists: 1060 Duplicate column name 'update_date' July 27, 2012
Unfortunately, am coming to the realization that for M2E to create one listing, I need the following a. General template – since UPC is with the general template b. Description template – since this points to the product/SKU c. Listing template – since this pulls the templates together and lists to eBay. The selling format template and synchronization template are shared across the system. I have 250 listings – so I will need to create and maintain 750 templates. They are not really templates – they are pieces of one listing. They can be a maintenance nightmare – I created the 250 General templates and realize I have to make a change in shipment – 250 changes! I am intrigued – has it worked well for other merchants? Would like to get inputs if I am missing something in this analysis! July 26, 2012
So far, so good. massive potential with templates. One MAJOR criticism is the customer invoice produced and emailed contains info about OUR Paypal fees paid and A LINK TO OUR ADMIN LOGIN!!!! I was going to use to manage 2,000+ products, but won't as is? Can anyone help remove the "external transactions" element from the invoice? July 13, 2012
Just installed on magento 1.7.0.1 Installation was easy, but haven't tested yet. June 26, 2012
Perfects. Works wonderfully on Magento 1.7.0.1 June 21, 2012
We're running 1.5.1 and the install and setup was very easy. Well thought out implementation. Takes a little bit of time to set up though well worth the effort the the level of integration. Wish I would have done this sooner! June 13, 2012
I have install successfully M2E on Magento 1.6.1.0 on local machine but did not show anywhere when login in Magento Admin. June 12, 2012
I have just uninstalled this extension as it doesn't work becuase ebay have changed the categories. It has removed my admin menu from the backend and I now have to do a server side re-install of my site. NOT GOOD! June 9, 2012
AMAZING!!! I am the definition of a "noob" when it comes to eCommerce...and M2ePro makes it insanely easy. When I had trouble with the extension, their AWESOME support team lead me through each and every step of the way. While the product is amazing, their support team makes it the best in the business. Thanks again M2ePro. June 2, 2012

I cannot obtain my token automatically when trying to complete the installation of the eBay extension.

When I select "Get Token" it takes me to a log-in page. I am not able to log in using our eBay credentials.

I registered at developer.ebay.com. I tried using those credentials and was still unsuccessful at logging in.

I went back to developer.ebay.com and manually created Sandbox Keys.

Are one of the 3 keys the token I want?

How do I insert it manually (if that's even possible)?

Answer: 
There might be several reasons why eBay credentials does not work. For Example:

1) The credential for "Live eBay" site instead of "Sandbox eBay" is used.

2) The credential for developer.ebay.com is used instead of sandbox account.

It can be simple detected if sandbox account login is used or not - all sandbox account logins started with "TESTUSER_".

Normally, the sandbox account can be created using Sandbox Registration Tool, when you are logged into: developer.ebay.com.
(Direct url - http://developer.ebay.com/DevZone/sandboxuser.asp )

P.S. For requests related to our extension, please use contact form on eBay/Amazon→Help→Support or send request via http://support.m2epro.com. Then your request will go directly to our ticket system. Otherwise, there might be slightly delay in response, as we do not check magentocommerce site messages regularly.

Answer: 
These comments are confusing. The configurable products is completely supported by eBay integration.

As for Amazon/Rakuten integration, currently there's a limited support and full support is planned to be added in end of March 2013.

Hi there,

We run an online book shop trading on eBay, and we wanted to see if we could use this extension to import our eBay inventory into Magento to build our new Magento powered shop?

I guess that at present this extension works by listing your Magento inventory to eBay, and manages your orders and inventory for eBay?

Thanks in advance,

Richard

Answer: 
You are correct. The M2E Pro is Magento to eBay integration. This means that Magento products catalog represents primary data source for products being listed on eBay. And not the other way round. However, we do support 3rd party eBay listings where M2E Pro can import such products (created manually or by other means) from eBay to Magento only as a part of eBay Order import process. The ability to import eBay store items into Magento catalog is planned for future versions.

Please ensure that CURL library is installed on your server and it supports HTTPS protocol.

Also please ensure that you do not have firewall settings which prevents outgoing connections.

When will the ability to publish variation products (configurables with several simple products with variations in color, size, etc) be implemented?

This module looks awesome but without this feature it won't fit into the requirements of the project I am working on.

Hi, the extention seems fine and comprehensive. We have products and sales on Amazon already and can only manage to download one product and one sale whilst no products were uploaded, the first time we ran our sync'. Do you have any advise or tips regarding how to tell why files might have rejected or not been included? What are the unique identifiers when looking for existing matches - is it SKU or EAN? Many thanks!

Hello,

my question is if you need to have an Ebay store already or need to create one to use the ebay part of this extension?
Or can I also use it without the costs of an Ebay store?

Further I like to know what is ment with:

The eBay component, its upgrades and support are free according to eBay / Magento Partner Agreement. And they will stay free until the partner agreement is active.

What does "partner agreement is active" means? what will be the costs afterwards en is it possible to stop with this extension if it is gettng to expensive for us a very small shop?

Thanks in advance already
