Ability to use Shipping Templates features

There are several modes available for working with Shipping settings on Amazon:

  • Global settings with the ability to override the configurations for the particular Product(s) (Shipping Override Policy);
  • Shipping Templates which allow identifying settings for the particular Product(s).

Starting from this version, M2E Pro supports both of the Amazon Shipping configurations.

So, you can select the Mode which is enabled for your Amazon Account in Seller Central in Amazon Integration > Configuration > Accounts > Shipping Settings tab.


Info
Note: The Mode should be selected according to the configurations of your Amazon Account. Otherwise, Amazon might return you errors.

Depending on the Mode selected in the Account configurations, the according Policy can be assigned on the Settings View Mode of the Listing.


The according Policies could be created in Amazon Integration > Configurations > Policies section.


In order to create the Shipping Template Policy, you should configure the according Template in your Seller Central first. It is caused by the fact that there are no ability to manage this settings via Amazon API. Then the name of the created Amazon Template you should provide in the Shipping Template Policy in M2E Pro to be able to apply it to your Amazon Items.


Fulfillment Center ID is provided in FBA Orders data

In the current M2E Pro version, new functionality for the FBA Orders management was added. So, now if the Orders information returned from Amazon contains a Fulfillment Center ID, it would be transferred into the Orders information available in Sell on Multi-channels > Sales section.

Info
Note: For the orders which were imported before the upgrade, this information cannot be downloaded. Only for newly imported orders, it will become available.
Ability to create new ASIN/ISBN in Canada Marketplace using Description Policy

The new M2E Pro version contains an ability to create new ASIN/ISBN for Amazon Canada Marketplace. Thus, the ability to create Description Policy was added either.


The Description Policy can either be used in order to update the product information on Amazon.

The detailed information about it you can find here.

Improvements

Many Performance improvements for synchronization with the Repricing Service

In previous versions, in some cases the Performance-related issues might arise for the cases when a lot of Products should be managed via Repricing Service.

New version contains some major Performance improvements which allows to work with the high number of Products without any issues, update Min, Max, Regular Prices, import Price values from Amazon without any issues.

There was a time-delay in Order status updating if there were a lot of List/Revise/Relist/Stop actions running

In case you have a lot of Products in your Inventory with the high number of changes in them, the number of required List/Revise/Relist/Stop actions which should be executed is also high. For Sellers with the high-loaded systems as described above, the time-delay in the updating of Orders' Statuses might arise.

In this M2E Pro version, this functionality was improved. The completely new, special programmatic part was implemented into the Extension, which allows to proceed the Orders updating and minimize the possible delay. So, the issue with the Orders' statuses updating delay should not arise.

Price values of the Products managed via Repricing Service will be updated every hour instead of one time a day

Previously the Price values displayed in M2E Pro for the Products managed via Repricing Service used to be updated once a day. It caused the difference in the actual Price value shown on Amazon for the Product and those value which you can see in your Listings.

To solve this issue, the frequent of the Price updating was increased and starting from 1.2.0 version the Price values are updated each hour.

Wizard for Module Migration from Magento v1.x

Data Migration from Magento v1.x to Magento v2.x is an ample and complicated process. And to make this process easier, the Migration Wizard was created.

To start with, you should ensure that your current M2E Pro versions for both Magento v1.x and Magento v2.x are upgraded to the versions which support the Migration process.

Info

Migration from M2E Pro for Magento v1.x to M2E Pro for Magento v2.x is available only from particular version for Magento v1.x to specified version for Magento v2.x. To verify which versions can be used, please, consult with our Support Team via email support@m2epro.com.nce

Then, you should navigate to Stores > Configuration > Multi Channels > Advanced Settings tab and click Proceed button for Open Migration Wizard option. It will take you to the first step of the wizard, where you will need to disable dynamic functioning of both M2E Pro for Magento v1.x and M2E Pro for Magento v2.x in order to correctly prepare data for further its migrating.

Once you click Continue button, you will be taken to the second step of the Wizard, where you will find an instructions on how to migrate the database from Magento v1.x to Magento v2.x.

Info
Note: this step is rather time-consuming. So, you might be logged out from your Magento and the link to the Migration Wizard can be lost. To return to the current step of the wizard, you should navigate to Stores > Configuration > Multi Channels > Migration from Magento v1.x.

After the database migration is completed, you will need to go to the next step of the Wizard. On this step, you will need to synchronize the Marketplaces data.

Our Congratulations! You have successfully migrated all the data from your M2E Pro for Magento v1.x to M2E Pro for Magento v2.x. So, you can use all available M2E Pro features for the version based on the Magento v2.x.

 Ability to Migrate from Magento1 module v6.5.0.8

If you would like to move your store to Magento v2.x, you can easily do that using a Migration tool for the M2E Pro version 6.5.0.8.

Please, learn more about the Migration here.

Compatibility with Magento Enterprise version (Staging module)

Starting from this M2E Pro version, the Magento Enterprise versions for Magento v2.x are supported.

Inability to support it earlier was caused by lack of Staging module in previously provided packs of Magento v2.x. During the installation of this Module, Magento native core functionalities are significantly changed, which caused the further crashing of M2E Pro.

Now, the according changes were implemented to M2E Pro and in-depth testing show that it is compatible with both Community and Enterprise versions without any differences.

Ability to import Company Name to Magento Customer data which is created during Order creation process

Using a new version of M2E Pro, the Company Name will be either imported into the Customer data which is generated during the Magento Order creation process.
