Initial Configuration

After installing the Multi-Platform Stock Sync (MPSS) plugin, you'll need to configure it to work with your specific setup. This guide will walk you through the initial configuration process.

Accessing MPSS Settings

1. Log in to your WordPress admin panel.
2. In the left sidebar, click on "Stock Sync".
3. You'll see three main tabs: Platforms Settings, Cronjob Settings, and Change Log.

Platforms Settings

This tab allows you to manage the e-commerce platforms integrated with MPSS.

1. View Registered Platforms: Here, you'll see a list of all platforms that have registered themselves with MPSS.

2. Sync Control:

   • For each platform, you can pause or resume the sync operation.
   • Use the toggle switch next to each platform to control its sync status.

3. User Access Control:

   • Set which user roles can access the features of each platform.
   • Under the "Access Level" column you can easily modify these settings.

Cronjob Settings

This tab lets you configure the automated synchronization process.

1. Sync Interval:

   • Set how often MPSS should run the sync process.
   • Options typically include 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 6h, 12h, 24h.
   • Select the interval that best suits your business needs.
   • Turn off syncing by choosing "Turn off" from the options list.

2. Email Alerts:

   • Configure email notifications for sync events.
   • Enable/disable alerts for:
     • When a sync operation starts.
     • When a sync operation ends.
     • When an error occurs during sync.

Change Log

This tab provides a detailed log of all sync operations and allows you to manage this data.

1. View Sync History:

   • See a comprehensive log of all previous sync operations.

2. Filtering Options:

   • Filter log entries by:
     • Platform Name
     • Operation Result (e.g., success, failure)
     • Operation Type (e.g., stock update, product sync)
     • Operation Date

3. Log Retention:

   • Toggle the option to delete or retain the change log upon plugin uninstallation.
   • This setting helps manage data cleanup when removing the plugin.

4. Log Analysis:
   • Use this log to track sync performance, identify patterns, and troubleshoot issues.
   • We log how much time did every sync operation needed, this helps you estimate

Saving Your Configuration

After adjusting settings in each tab:

1. Click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom of each settings page.
2. You should see a confirmation message that your settings have been saved.

Next Steps

After completing the initial configuration:

1. Test the sync process by making a small inventory change in one platform.
2. Check that the change is reflected in other connected platforms.
3. Review the sync logs in the Change Log tab to ensure everything is working as expected.
