Synchronizing customer data from your online sales channel to FF Inventory is a key feature for maintaining an up-to-date and efficient inventory management system. Here's a detailed overview of how this synchronization process works:

  1. Initial Connection and Import: The first time you connect your online store to FF Inventory, the system imports sales orders along with all associated customer data. This initial sync lays the foundation for your customer database in FF Inventory.

  2. Real-Time Sync for New and Updated Customers:

    • New Customers: After the initial setup, any new customer created in your online store will automatically sync to FF Inventory when a sales order for that customer is made. This ensures that your customer data in FF Inventory is always current.

    • Updated Customer Information: Additionally, if you update a customer's information in your online store, the update syncs when a new sales order for that updated customer is processed. This feature is crucial for keeping customer records consistent and accurate across both platforms.

  3. Seamless Integration: This integration ensures that your customer database in FF Inventory is consistently synchronized with your online store, providing a unified view of customer information. It eliminates the need for manual data entry, thereby reducing the potential for errors.

  4. Efficient Order Management: The real-time synchronization of customer data enhances the efficiency of order processing. Having immediate access to updated customer information in FF Inventory streamlines the handling of new orders and improves overall customer service.

By leveraging this synchronization feature in FF Inventory, you can ensure that your inventory management system remains aligned with the ever-evolving dynamics of your online sales, providing an effective and cohesive operational experience.
