    Do you use an order management system for your daily drive? which one?

    We use our own module that combines multiple orders and create picking lists with it. It's quite a complex stuff, cause we try to minimize the picking meters. We pick with a smartphone, that has a special scanner inbuilt.

    But ok I guess nobody else here is doing it like we do 😅

    Actually that is what I have in my mind with the app hahaha

    For me it's always very difficult to answer a question like: Do you use an "OMS", "ERP", "CRM" or whatever. I think in functions/features.

    In general we try to automate a lot of stuff...

    Yeah, you are right, not every OMS are the same.

    For example, how do deal when an order arrives? print the order detail list and do the pickup?.

    Wouldn't it better to have an mobile app or interface that can show the order detail with its combination pictures, its location sorted, so you have to travel less?, then just a few click in the same app and the order changes states from picking to packing.

    After that, how do you synchronize the stock from the ERP and thirtybees*? manual CVS export? wouldn't it better to have some scheduled task that compares the current stock in your ERP and do the update via Http post to TB webservice?

    *I'm assuming that nobody does billing with TB and ends up using an ERP.

    Thumbnails regeneration never times out, it just takes time. This is one of the things where thirty bees removed one of the well known PS pains.

    For investigation on what's going on, looking at the URL of one or two images and comparing it with images actually on disk is a good start.

    One can also turn off Pretty URLs to see these URLs directly, without Apache changing it on the fly.

    Is there a way to make it multiprocess? because it is single process and that is a waste of resources.

    What about a subscription model based on support and crowdfunding model for bug fixing and new features?.

    Well, that is the source of all my problems.  After speaking with tech support at my host, I finally learned that previous versions of ES, at least the free ones, are not secured.  The server will not accept anything below 6.8 because there is no security in the older versions unless it is the paid versions.  So it is impossible to make it work with the module at this point.  For the record, it would have been nice to know which versions of ES are supported in the documentation - it would have saved me a week of stumbling in the dark...

    There is a workaround for it, you could deploy a 5.4 ES server and do a ssh bridge or vpn so it won't be publicly exposed.

    Name the ERP that you use or think is the most interesting to have a realtime connector for it.

    Madness - yeah that about sums it up, with clever excel manipulations

    We currenty have aboout 2000 products we sell online, but we also manufacture with some of those raw products which is why we need the link to ERPNEXT. So M10 washers we mentioned earlier we may have sold 10 on Ebay, 20 on Amazon, 5 on TB and used 150 in our factory!

    I try to add half a dozen new products are week which are done manually to ERP, TB, PS, Amazon, Ebay before syncing can happen

    Three times a day (Monday to Friday) a cron activates an automatic export of new orders using NVN Export Orders module in TB/PS and saves them as CSV files to a server. Immediatley after that a Windows task manager activates an excel spreadheet to download those CSV files, combine and manipulate them (to allow for pack sizes etc) and saves an ERPNEXt compliant csv file. At this point our pickers can print invoices from TB and get on with processing them.

    Manually that CSV file is uploaded to ERPNEXT. Take a few seconds. And then we manually export the newly updated stock and price levels from ERPNEXT to csv file on a local computer - again a few seconds but it is manual.

    Then Windows task manager automaticaly grabs those stock export csv files into another Excel file that converts them into TB / PS compliant CSV files. And then starts a csv import of new prices and stock levels using Store Manager for Prestashop into TB / PS where an amazon module and an ebay module autmatially updates those marketplaces

    Obviously that takes manual imput from us during the weekday.

    Meantime further routines and csv files run a few times a night and at weekends doing a similar job, but instead of working with manually exported stocks from ERPNExt, looks at current unprocessed sales on each platform and adjusts stocks via csv accordingly

    Oh, and did I mention the added complication of the trade account customers we have that do not buy online but are quoted and sold from the ERPNEx system?

    Madness you say? yep. And as you can guess the only hair I have left is grey!

     

     

     

    hahaha, thanks for taking your time to explain your setup, it looks like a centralized product information management would be good for you :) , you enter the product only once and then export with different rules per channel ( BT, ERP , Ebay, Amazon ... etc).

    All manual. We create the product in ERPNExt and Thirtybees, then update stock about 4 times a day via csv

     

    To be honest, because of what and how we sell I am not sure a link would benefit us. By which I mean we sell on Thirtybees individual items, we also have a prestashop installation JUST for ebay where we sell via attributes, and another Prestashop JUST for Amazon where we sell by "Pack sizes"

     

    So our main website you can by one M10 washer and one M12 washer as separate items. On ebay they are combined into one auction and pack sizes from 1-100, whereas on Amazon you can only get a pack of 20 washers. Very complicated so I don't think a link would help us too much ;)

    Yeah it looks complex , interesting setup, do it take much of your time to have the stock synchronized in all the three sites?, I guess that you don't post a lot of products per day, otherwise it would be madness.

    Hi guys, I would like to know what ERP do you guys use or think it is the most used or interesting out there .

    We could awake the interest for a real time integration module to achieve omnichannel with TB. It could be a generic enough gateway with plugins that adapts to each ERP.

    In my case, I use Factusol (quite famous in Spain , which is free  to use but closed source). 

    Making Elasticsearch plugin working with v7.0

    update

    Hi guys, I managed to get it working with ES v6.3

    create a composer.json in modules/elasticsearch with this content :  

    {
    "require": {
        "elasticsearch/elasticsearch": "6.5.0"
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-4": {
            "ElasticsearchModule\\": "classes/"
        }
    }
}

    then delete the vendor folder and regenerate it again with : 

    composer install

    That's it. Enjoy ES v6.3.0 :)
