## Description

Connect your WooCommerce source catalog and stock to ShipWave Channels. This
 companion
adds recoverable marketplace-order receipts and quantity-scoped shipment tracking.
It supports WooCommerce legacy orders and HPOS.

#### External service

This plugin is the companion for ShipWave Channels, operated by Levy Electric,
 
Inc. A ShipWave account and a connection from ShipWave to this WooCommerce store
are required. The plugin does not provide standalone marketplace connections. ShipWave
provides the hosted marketplace connections, synchronization and fulfillment workflow.
Service subscriptions and shipping charges are separate from this free plugin; see
the current service and pricing page below. This package is prepared for WordPress.
org distribution. A WooCommerce Marketplace listing is separate from installation
and is not required.

After the store owner authorizes access, ShipWave reads catalog, stock and order

data through WooCommerce’s API. Registered WooCommerce webhooks send product and
order events to ShipWave. Enabled write lanes let ShipWave create marketplace order
mirrors and save quantity-scoped tracking. Mirrors include the buyer’s shipping 
details where the marketplace permits it. Amazon buyer name, street address, phone
and email are never written to WooCommerce; those mirrors use “Marketplace Customer”
placeholders with only city, state, postal code and country. The companion authenticates
these requests using the store’s WooCommerce API key and its existing permissions.
It does not execute payment gateways or refunds.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce. Enable WooCommerce stock management.
 2. In WordPress, open Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin. Upload the ShipWave Channels
    ZIP and activate it. After WordPress.org publication, you can also search for ShipWave
    Channels under Plugins > Add New and choose Install Now.
 3. In ShipWave, choose Stores > Connect > WooCommerce, enter your public HTTPS store
    address, and approve the read/write connection in WooCommerce.
 4. Start read-only sync, resolve SKU/stock mapping issues, and complete test-store
    acceptance before enabling order mirrors, marketplace stock, or tracking.
 5. Stop any previous connector writers before enabling ShipWave write lanes.

Alternatively, create a WooCommerce read/write REST API key for an administrator
and use ShipWave’s existing-API-keys option. Keep the key and secret private. Public
HTTPS with valid TLS is required. Private networks and redirecting REST endpoints
are unsupported.

#### Orders and tracking

Marketplace orders represent sales already paid on the marketplace. The plugin does
not charge a buyer, execute a payment gateway, or issue refunds. Source stock is
reserved and deducted through WooCommerce’s native stock functions. Untracked, backordered,
virtual or ambiguous shared-stock products are held. Replaying an identical reference
recovers its receipt. A changed or uncertain request requires reconciliation instead
of automatically creating another order.

In a WooCommerce order’s ShipWave shipment tracking box, enter a carrier, tracking
number and the exact quantities in one parcel, then use the order Update button.
Each parcel remains recorded. Partial parcels do not complete the entire order. 
ShipWave shipping labels continue to use ShipWave’s warehouse and rate policies.

#### Recovery

If an order or shipment reports reconciliation required, pause the affected write
lane in ShipWave and inspect its source receipt and ShipWave Sync health. Do not
delete plugin claim/lock options, remove receipt metadata or re-create a reference
to bypass an uncertain result. Contact support@shipwave.app or consult the setup
guide above. Disabling the plugin stops companion writes; historical orders, shipments,
stock deductions and claims remain stored.

## FAQ

### Is a WooCommerce.com account required to connect my store?

No. Direct installation and store authorization use your own WordPress site.
 A 
WooCommerce.com vendor account is a separate requirement for publishing this plugin
in Woo’s official Marketplace.

### Can I keep another connector writing orders or inventory?

Complete a read-only comparison first, then disable the previous connector’s
 affected
writers before enabling the corresponding ShipWave write lanes.

## Changelog

#### 1.0.3

   new claims.
 * Preserves existing order and parcel receipts and honors legacy uncertain claims
   and locks.

#### 1.0.2

 * Prepares WordPress.org readme metadata and service disclosures.
 * Directory packages use WordPress.org updates; direct-download packages retain
   
   the ShipWave Update URI and manual replacement workflow.

#### 1.0.1

 * Amazon order mirrors use non-restricted buyer placeholders instead of being
    
   refused.
 * Declares cart/checkout block compatibility, sanitizes request input, caches the
   
   storage-engine check, and makes the tracking box translatable.
 * Adds tested-version metadata and an Update URI so unrelated directory plugins
   
   cannot replace this companion.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial companion with durable order receipts, native atomic stock reservation,
   
   exact parcel quantities, permission checks, and legacy/HPOS order support.
