Non-Stock Item Entity

This topic provides reference information about the standard filtering and field mapping used for the Non-Stock Item entity during the synchronization between MYOB Advanced and BigCommerce. The topic also contains information about the merging of duplicate records during the synchronization.

Non-Stock Item Filtering

Filters are applied during the export of stock items. A non-stock item is skipped if any of the following is true:

  • The non stock item is a matrix item—that is, a template is specified for the item in the Template ID box on the General tab of the Non-Stock Items (IN202000) form. Matrix items are synchronized as part of the synchronization of template items.
  • No item sales category is assigned to the non-stock item and no default category is selected in the Default Non-Stock Categories box on the Inventory Settings tab of the BigCommerce Stores (BC201000) form.
  • The non-stock item is the gift certificate item—that is, the item selected in the Gift Certificate Item box in the Order section on the Order Settings tab of the BigCommerce Stores form.

Merging of Duplicates

During the export of non-stock items from MYOB Advanced, a non-stock item is merged with an existing product in BigCommerce if at least one of the following conditions is met:
  • The non-stock item's description in MYOB Advanced—that is, the value in the Description box on the Non-Stock Items (IN202000) form—matches the Product Name of the product in BigCommerce.
  • The non-stock item's ID in MYOB Advanced—that is, the value in the Inventory ID box on the Non-Stock Items form—matches the SKU of the product in BigCommerce.
