Brightpearl Synchronizer - Brightpearl Setup
Creating custom fields in Brightpearl
To set up Brightpearl for use with the Shopify app "Brightpearl synchronizer", you'll need to create two custom fields. For a general guide on how to create custom fields in Brightpearl, please refer to this Brightpearl documentation.
Follow the setup instructions below:
- Login to your Brightpearl account here
- In Brightpearl, navigate to "Settings" -> "Custom fields" -> "Products"
- If it does not already exist, create a product custom field in Brightpearl of type 'Yes/No' which determines whether the Brightpearl product will be synchronized to Shopify.
- Set the newly created custom field to "Yes" for the products you want to synchronize to Shopify
- Return to "Settings" -> "Custom fields" -> "Products" again. If not already present, create a product custom field in Brightpearl of type 'Freeform text', which will be used by the app to set the Shopify ID on the product in Brightpearl. This field should never be edited in Brightpearl.
