Moneris + PayPal + Google checkout implementation 7. eShipper integration Basic points Offers automated import The purpose is to fully automate product offers import from distributors. Further extension of imports with adding new distributor should be simple enough. Import will need to have some mapping capabilities, which should be interfaced in the backoffice of the osCommerce. ICEcat can provide a categorization advise in most cases, but we have to be compatible with ICEcat category structure, which is multilevel and derived from UNSPSC. The same stands for manufacturers list. Interface/screens required: - Map vendors (from distributors data into standard vendor) - Map categories (from distributors data into standard category) - Distributors import status screen (import dashboard) Distributors selector module In case of multiple distributors connected, this module will be needed to resolve ambiguities in product assortment and optimize product coverage in shop. It will create a best products selection, based on distributors selection rules. Rules can sounds like: - Find the best price among [SELECTION] offers Where [SELECTION] could be defined by parameters: - Manufacturer / Any manufacturer - Category / Any category - Partnumber Assortment in the environment will be refreshed after every successful import job and / or in the end of batch session timeframe. Batch session timeframe = time when assortment updates in shop isn't significant, e.g. from 01:00 till 07:00. This is to lower the server load. Interface required: - Distributors selector rules input ICEcat content import module Content import module will import content from ICEcat XML repository. It will put it into a local database, and data will be shown on product details page. Data to be imported are: - Product names / descriptions - Images / gallery / multimedia - Specification - Related products (x-selling / up-selling data) Currently no backoffice interface is supposed for this data management, existing data storage tables should be used as much as possible. Data will be stored in local database in a well-structured form, suitable for lookup and product comparison. In the frontoffice there should be a possibility to compare selected products (in one category) and to find products matching certain criterias. As soon as no backoffice for data management is supposed, all search settings are to be re-used as they are setup in ICEcat (ICEcat provides certain defaults, as you can see in www.icecat.biz) The search will be filter-based – a user will have possibility to create a product filter based on: - manufacturer - stock (yes/no) - price breaks - Specification (search breaks will be based on ICEcat searchable features) End-User Pricing End user price is calculated on “Purchase price + Margin” model. Margin could be calculated by a rules, which are defined in a backoffice. Rules format is - If [CONDITION] then marge = [MARGE DEFINED] Where a [CONDITION] is a combination of: - Purchase price condition ( purchase price between A and B) - Vendor = [A | Any] - Category = [ A | Any] - Product code = [A | None] “A” is a parameter, as defined in rules setup. Rules are to be managed from a backoffice. Real-Time stock & price check As distributors provide interface for real-time Price and Availability (P&A) check, it could be implemented in front-office and backoffice to provide the real-time info on request. In front office it will be integrated via a link, which will start AJAX request for an update. Server will perform the parallelized requests to distributors and return the result to user page. No popups here, only a stock quantity will be updated and during a check there will be an indicdation that the request is currently in progress. Initial environment setup This involves creation of own look & feel design and customization of standard OsCommerce templates to your own branded look & feel. That includes custom look & feel graphical mockups creation. They will be approved, and then frontpage look and feel will be adjusted to match the mockups. Frontpage look & feel will include as well filters functionality, as discussed in “ICEcat content import module”, so filters mechanism, product page with a rich content etc. Automatically optimizes the page title, meta tags, alt text and URL of every page and items (Product, Category, Subcategory and Brand Pages :Title enhancement, Keywords, Description) Automatic URL Rewriting, generates SEO friendly URLs that include relevant keyword. Automatically Check for broken links and Redirect Dead URLs With 301. Automatically generates a Google Sitemap page.
