E-Commerce

Should your organisation sell goods online, they will be shown on the Charity Suite Portal in the E-Commerce Items and Transaction sections.

E-Commerce Items

The E-Commerce Items section of the Charity Suite portal allows donated items to be sold online to be viewed and reviewed using filters to limit the search results. For example all items from a specific location. On entering the page, the search results are limited to the show items updated from the first day of the current month. 

Should you wish, you can export a list of item. This is facilitated with the Export CSV (Comma-Separated Values) and will export those items as shown using the filters. On pressing Export CSV,  the fields required can be selected, before downloading into a CSV file.

The Export eBay CSV button will generate eBay CSV formatted data that can be uploaded directly into the eBay store. Items that were exported previously using this method cannot be exported again. The system identifies all items with E-Commerce tags which have ACCEPTED or  TRANSFER E-Commerce tag.

You will notice that the button Export eBay CSV is now disabled, since these items no longer have the necessary E-Comerce tags needed to be flagged as requiring download. They are now flagged with the E-Commerce status of DRAFT.

Review E-Commerce Items

On selecting to REVIEW an e-commerce item, if your organisation is using MickMkt Vision AI tool, the following screen will be presented. 

Based on the information and images you provide, MicroMkt Vision will detail some prices you can select for your item and the accuracy prediction based on other items it has found with similar data. You can press your chosen price and the paste (CTL+V) it into the Listing Price field.

If the Listing Title is different from the MicroMkt Vision Product Title finding you are able to click the 'Set to Product Title' to copy the MicroMkt Vision Product Title into the Listing Title field.

Once you are content with the details, the next stage is to set the e-commerce tag from Review into Accepted and Submit the data.

Pressing MICROMKT VISION, allows selection of up to 4 images for a valid AI appraisal. For optimum results, 4 images are prefererable. Any additional information can be typed into the additional information field or captured using the speech annotation. 

Press the speech icon to start recording, and the red square when you have finished speaking the additional information. A summary will be added and any amendments can be made before submitting and continiuing with the AI appraisal.

Should the appraisal run into errors, you will be informed to try again. On successful appraisal, any additional information added will be shown under the REMARKS field.

Bulk Update Active eBay Listing

Items that have been sold online through the external eBay system will require updating in the Charity Suite Portal. The external eBay system will generate a CSV file for upload into the Charity Suite Portal. This is facitiltated through the Action --> Bulk Update Active eBay Listing button.

Once all errors have been resolved, the file is ready to be uploaded. In this exmple, there are 19 items, only 1 of which is recognised. Any unrecognised items will be ignored during the upload process. 

The recognised item has been successfully updated.

E-Commerce Transfers can be made between organisational locations.

When creating an internal E-Commerce transfer, only the source and destination fields are mandatory. The remaining fields are optional.

Once the E-Commerce transfer has been created, the items and quantity of each item can be added to the transfer.
