Burlington Account Integration

Overview

Burlington is a retail company with over 1,000 stores across the United States, offering a wide variety of brand-name clothing, footwear, accessories, home goods, and baby items at discounted prices. Burlington also promotes savings through its credit card and loyalty programs.

Integrating Burlington into your Sellercloud account allows you to seamlessly import orders, upload tracking information, and ensure your Burlington store is always up-to-date with the latest inventory data. This integration works through EDI documents, transmitting information between the two services via plugins and Scheduled Tasks.

If necessary, you can open a ticket with Sellercloud Support to request additional customizations or other plugins for this integration. Any such modifications will be billable.

Inventory Export

This plugin exports inventory from Sellercloud to Burlington in EDI 846 format. The vendor address comes from the Company Settings page of the company where the Scheduled Task is running.

To set a Safety Quantity for your products, use the Custom Product Column Burlington_SafetyQty.

Optionally, you can enable only specific products for Burlington by setting their Burlington_Enabled Custom Product Column to True:

• For one product at a time: go to the Product Details Page > click Toolbox and select Custom Columns > click Edit, update the Burlington_Enabled column, and Save.
• For multiple products in bulk: follow the steps to Bulk Update Products and use the Burlington_Enabled column – set it to True for all products you want to enable.

Unlike core integrations, plugin integrations don’t require products to be in the company with the scheduled tasks. The export will include the products you select with your Saved Search.

Next, create a Saved Search for products filtered by Burlington_Enabled – True. Optionally, you can add more filters to the search to narrow down the export further.
