Entrenue is a wholesale distributor specializing in adult products, boutique pleasure items, and wellness goods. As a source in Flxpoint, it supports automated inventory updates and order fulfillment, helping retailers efficiently manage stock and streamline their order processing.
Product Operations
The primary operation handles the bulk of your inventory management needs, while the secondary operation allows for more detailed control, such as focusing on specific products or updates.
Get Inventory (Primary)
This operation relies on your Entrenue reseller email and API key to fetch a comprehensive XML feed (for example, https://entrenue.com/feeds/products.xml). It’s the main source for product data, including SKU, name, pricing, quantity, images, categories, and certain custom fields. Because it’s a full feed, it can be scheduled daily or at regular intervals to keep your catalog fully updated.
Key Points
- Authentication: Uses reseller email + API key.
- Product Coverage: Only simple products; variations/options are not supported.
- Warehouse Support: Single warehouse only.
- Data Scope: Ideal for a complete product import or refresh.
Get Inventory (Secondary)
This secondary feed (e.g., https://entrenue.com/feeds/products_2.xml) is also accessed with the same reseller email and API key but typically focuses on targeted updates—such as pricing and quantity changes—rather than the full range of product details. It helps you quickly update stock and prices without re-importing every attribute.
Key Points
- Similar Authentication: Same reseller email + API key.
- Partial Updates: Focuses on pricing and quantity, though it can also handle a smaller subset of product fields.
- No Variations: Simple product model only.
- Efficiency: Useful if you want more frequent, lightweight updates for stock levels or pricing.
Order Operations
It submits orders to vendors for fulfillment and subsequently imports the shipment details, ensuring an integration between order processing and shipment tracking.
Send Fulfillment Requests
Use this operation to send orders from your system to Entrenue for direct fulfillment. You’ll supply order details such as SKUs, quantities, shipping addresses, and preferred shipping methods. Entrenue then processes these orders and ships the products on your behalf.
Key Points
- Order Data: Includes SKUs, quantities, and shipping details (name, address, city, state, postal code, etc.).
- Carrier & Methods: Entrenue supports multiple carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc.), but specific options may vary.
- Mapping Template: Map fields like “Fulfillment Request Number,” “Shipping Method,” and “Line Items” to ensure accurate data.
- Fulfillment Flow: Once Entrenue receives valid order data, they confirm receipt and prepare the shipment.
Get Shipments
After Entrenue ships an order, this operation retrieves the shipping information so you can update your records and notify customers. It uses the same reseller email and API key to call Entrenue’s endpoint (e.g., https://api.entrenue.com/orders), returning shipment-level tracking data.
Key Points
- Shipment Details: Provides a shipping method and tracking information at the order level.
- Partial Shipments: Not supported; orders appear shipped once all items are sent.
- Carrier Info: Carrier and method are shown, allowing you to share tracking numbers with customers.
- Integration Flow: Run this after sending fulfillment requests to keep your system in sync with real-time shipment updates.
