S&S Activewear as a Source
Summary
S&S Activewear is a wholesale distributor of blank apparel — T-shirts, hoodies, polos, and accessories — for screen printing, embroidery, and promotional product use. One connection (Account Number + API Key) powers Get Inventory (Primary) for the full catalog, Send Fulfillment Requests, and Get Shipments. Customer pricing is account-specific and requires your S&S account to have API customer pricing enabled — without it, Cost imports empty or falls back to Piece Price.
S&S Activewear uses a single API (Account Number + API Key) connection. Add an S&S Activewear source, start configuring an operation, and when Flxpoint prompts you click + New Connection, enter your Account Number and API Key, then Test Connection → Save Connection.
support@flxpoint.com.Customer pricing imports empty unless API customer pricing is enabled on your S&S account
S&S Activewear pricing is account-specific (contracted dealer price). If your account is not approved for API access for customer pricing, the Cost field imports empty or falls back to Piece Price — Flxpoint margins will not reflect your real contracted rates. To fix: log into your S&S dealer account, confirm API customer pricing access is enabled, and if not, contact your S&S Activewear representative to request enrollment. After enablement, re-run GIP — no additional Flxpoint configuration is needed.
colorGroupName and styleName attributes added May 2026 — re-run GIP to backfill
Two new attributes — colorGroupName and styleName — began importing via the S&S API in May 2026. If affected SKUs are missing these attributes, re-run Get Inventory Primary for those SKUs to backfill. For WooCommerce stores, confirm the global attribute name matches the imported value: pa_color-group ↔ colorGroupName. Mismatched attribute names will prevent correct taxonomy linking.
Map Style → Parent SKU to group variants under one parent product
S&S products come in multiple size/color variants of the same garment style. To group all variants under a single parent product in Flxpoint, map the S&S Style field → Parent SKU in your GIP mapping template. Without this mapping, variants will not group and each size/color combination will appear as a standalone product.
Send FR rejected most often due to unrecognized shipping method code
The most common Send FR failure with S&S Activewear is an unrecognized shipping method code. Verify your mapped shipping method value matches an S&S-accepted code. Also confirm the ship-to address is complete (US street + city + state + ZIP) — PO boxes are often rejected. If a SKU is rejected, re-run GIP first to ensure the SKU exists in the S&S catalog, then retry the order.

pa_color-group global attribute doesn't link correctly, confirm the global attribute slug in WooCommerce matches the imported attribute name (colorGroupName). The integration sets Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) as a WooCommerce global attribute by default; confirm your WooCommerce settings don't override this if you need MPN as a global.Style field. Save the template and re-run GIP — variants will regroup under their parent style on the next run. This mapping is critical for creating the correct parent-child product structure in Flxpoint.What product attributes does GIP import from S&S Activewear?▸
