For an order to be communicated between Order Desk and your Spreadconnect App, you have to first make sure the SKUs are matching from one App to the other.

If it is the case, there are 2 options within Order Desk to send orders to Spreadconnect.

• Automatically send them for fulfilment.
• Manually review each order individually before sending them over to Spreadconnect for production.

To automatically send the orders to Spreadconnect, which we highly recommend you do, follow these few steps:

1. Go to your Order Desk Dashboard.
2. Click on Manage Integrations under Integrations on the left-hand side menu.
3. Click on Settings under the Spreadconnect integration.
4. Tick the option to automatically send imported orders to Spreadconnect.

To manually review each order, you will have to make sure to Untick the option above. You will then have to look at the orders that you have in your Order Desk account and send them to Spreadconnect manually once you have checked them.

Since Order Desk is an order management tool, it is not possible to set up the shipping rates there but rather on each individual platform you use with Order Desk.

For example, if you are selling products on Amazon via Order Desk, you will have to set up your shipping rates in your Settings on Amazon.

Spreadconnect will automatically send the dispatch information to your Order Desk account. However, we do not contact the customer directly. For that, you will need to set up email templates, which can be then automated for your convenience with Order Desk.

All information about Order Desk Email Templates can be found here: How to work with Email Templates.

Order Desk is not an e-commerce platform, but an order management tool that connects multiple platforms. This means Order Desk is not used to import and manage products. You have to create your product in your Spreadconnect app, download the CSV file and use the information in the platform of your choice (ex: Amazon, Etsy).

Once an order arrives in Order Desk from one of these platforms, if the SKU matches the product you created with Spreadconnect, you will be able to ask for fulfilment and send it to us.

There is currently no automatic way to import a product from your Spreadconnect App to the platform of your choice. It is all done via CSV files that you can find in your Product List. We do want to improve that process for you in a near future. We also plan on adding Dynamic printing.

Check out the steps in our tutorial on how to connect Spreadconnect to Etsy using Order Desk. We explain how to publish a product in this use case and how to fulfill an order.
