High Value Amazon FBA Orders Missing

We had a problem importing FBA orders. Some orders with high value was incorrectly classified as non fba and skipped during our FBA import. This is now fixed.
You can download old XML Settlement Reports from Amazon, and manually import into Teapplix under "Open Orders" => Import, and the missing FBA orders will show up. This will not cause any duplicates.

Switching to Amazon MWS

Teapplix has switched to using MWS for Amazon integration. MWS is Amazon's latest API to download orders and confirm order shipped.

For accounts signed up after Sept 12, 2011 you will automatically be using MWS. For existing Teapplix accounts, you will continue to use our SOAP based integration method until we convert everyone at a to be announced later date. If you want to switch to MWS early, please contact support.

One benefit of MWS based integration is that you get to control the frequency of Amazon order download. You can select hourly, every 30 minutes, or every 15 minutes. In addition, we plan to expand to non US Amazon sites in the future.

Import QB Orders

We have released some major enhancement to our QuickBooks integration solution.

Now you can import orders from QuickBooks to print shipping labels in Teapplix.
You have the choice of import invoices (paid or not), sales receipts and sales orders. Teapplix is smart enough to not re-import orders that is originally from Teapplix back into Teapplix. It will also not export any orders that is originally from QuickBooks back into QuickBooks.

We have also released some other enhancements in QuickBooks integration:

  1. orders from other marketplaces like Buy.com, Sears, NewEgg etc can now be mapped to their own customers and accounts.
  2. you can now have your sales receipt deposit to "Undeposited Funds" in addition to regular bank accounts
  3. For domestic orders, Teapplix will no longer export the "country" line into QuickBooks. This solves a QuickBooks bug where it can't print addresses with "United States" as country.
  4. For eBay orders, Teapplix will append the item number into the item description field.
  5. You can now customize the way Teapplix name created customers. You can use normal name, company name, name + email / phone number, etc.

Open orders display change

Teapplix now displays item title, SKU, and location code if assigned on the open orders page.

One application for this is that if you have multiple warehouses or your inventory is handled by different people, you can put that in the location code using the remember weight screen. That location code can be used to sort your orders. Then you can use bulk update to move the orders to different custom queues so multiple people can process them.
