Tesco Inventory Synchronization allows you to synchronize your stock levels with Tesco listings. The feature is designed to prevent you from overselling on Tesco when an item is sold on another channel (such as Amazon, eBay, Play.com, Magento or any other type of web-sites). It also makes it easy to take control of your listings on Tesco, as it will no longer be necessary to relist or adjust listings.
The system will perform the following tasks:
For inventory synchronization to work you need to link listing to an inventory item. Click on the Mapping button next to your integrated Tesco account in Settings -> Channel Integration to bring up the Mapping tool. You then need to upload a CSV of your Tesco listings MerchantID's and GTIN's to view and modify the mapping, the CSV can be uploaded by selecting the Load from CSV option. The expected colum headers for this file are MerchantID (this is the Tesco SKU) and GTIN.
Once the CSV has been uploaded you will be able to view existing SKU mapping and add/remove SKU mapping.
You can import the minimum and maximum listed quanitites for your Tesco listings by selecting the Import Min/Max Quantities option within the Inventory Mapping screen, browsing to a CSV file and then selecting the columns you wish to include.
You can view the Sync Status by right clicking on a listing. This option will display three more columns on the mapping screen. These new columns will show you when Linnworks last updated the quantity of the Tesco listing, and how many are listed on the site at the moment.
