Overview
Overstock recently purchased Bed Bath & Beyond and rebranded it to Beyond. To integrate your Sellercloud account with Beyond, you must use the Overstock General Settings page and the Overstock Product Properties page to manage your listings. All orders will be imported with Order Source: Overstock.
Overstock.com is a well-known marketplace that attracts customers looking for discounts and affordable shipping. Learn how to integrate your Overstock account within Sellecloud in order to post products, manage listings, and enable automatic updates.
Integrate with Overstock
Sellercloud exchanges documents with Supplier Oasis via an FTP supplied by Overstock. As with most fulfillment channels, you must create your listings directly on their platform and negotiate pricing with an Overstock representative.
Follow the steps below to integrate your account:
- Apply to sell on Overstock here.
- Contact Overstock to create an FTP. They will require the following information:
- Customer ISA Qualifier – ZZ.
- Customer ISA ID – Typically your phone number.
- Overstock will email the credentials to you, along with their Qualifier and ID for the transactions. You will need them when setting up the integration.
- In Sellercloud, go to Settings > Companies > Manage Companies > Select a company > Toolbox > Overstock > General Settings.
- If the page is set to the old API integration settings, go to Actions > Switch to EDI Settings.
- Click Edit.
- In the Credentials panel, check Overstock Enabled and enter the respective qualifiers and IDs.
- In the FTP Settings panel, fill out the credentials you obtained earlier.
- Set the port to 10022 and enable Use Passive.
- In the Controls panel, check the Enable SOFS setting.
- (Optional) Check Delete Files after Processing. If incoming files are not cleared on the FTP server, retrieval timeouts may occur. To avoid FTP clutter, enable this option. We strongly recommend checking this box only after testing the order download.
- Click Save.
- Go to Actions > Test FTP credentials.
