• Hi Everyone,

    Anyone know of an e-commerce plugin that takes in external feeds for products sold?

    I do not have any products of my own. I buy products from a variety of suppliers (ex: IBM, HP, etc…) which I then resell.

    Looking for an e-commerce plugin that would take in external feeds from my suppliers e-comm portal in real time. Those feeds would supply me with:

    – SKU#,
    – product description,
    – quantities available,
    – product costs.

    In real-time I would than take the cost supplied by those feeds, mark it up and display the information with the new pricing on my e-store.

    I looked at several plugins such as Woocommerce but is seems they all require you manually create a database of products. Nothing seems to be totally automated.

    When you have tens of thousands of products, that’s VERY inefficient. Especially when someone else can feed you all the info needed. Also, when you considers that others (i.e.: competitors) have access to the same products, building a manual database of products you do not own, means your data is already outdated by the time you show it on your site.

    Anyone has a solution for that?

    Thanks in advance to all who reply.

    Cheers,

    Marc

    By the way, if the above is somewhat confusing, I am referring to electronic data interchange (EDI) capabilities between my suppliers and me.

    Cheers,
