CS-Cart Inventory Management

This article will help you understand what product details are synced from CS-Cart into Cin7 Orderhive and what information is updated back to CS-Cart from Cin7 Orderhive.

Once integrated, Cin7 Orderhive will sync all your products with their variants and populate them on the products listing page.

Cin7 Orderhive imports the below product fields from CS-Cart:

  • Product Code (synced as SKU in Cin7 Orderhive)
  • Quantity
  • Description
  • Name
  • Weight
  • Price
  • Image 

Cin7 Orderhive imports variants (called combinations in CS-Cart) too. If we don't receive the name of the variant from CS-Cart, it will be updated in Cin7 Orderhive in this format i.e. Parent name_attribute 1_attribute 2.

Inventory Updates

All CS-Cart products will get populated on the Products listing page in the products module. The inventory is saved under the Available stock field in Cin7 Orderhive. All the products will be part of the default warehouse you selected while integrating your store.

Whenever you change the stock in Cin7 Orderhive or a new sales order drops in on CS-Cart or on any integrated channel associated with that CS-Cart product, Cin7 Orderhive will automatically push new stock levels to CS-Cart in real-time.
