Sellers with existing listings 

Please read this article, extra considerations need to be adhered to for Existing Listings. 

 

Product Identifiers

  • All products on Bunnings require product identifiers such as UPCs, MPNs or ISBNs etc. Omnivore will import this data from your ecommerce store. If you are Magento and Woocommerce, please make sure you map the correct data fields when setting up.
  • Brands: Requirements to be advised.

 

Choose which products to list

 

Pricing

  • If you want to change the price of products you can create a promotion to increase or decrease the price of all products or a group of products.
  • If you're an international seller, you can also create custom exchange rates - go to 'Settings - Currencies' if you don't want to use the daily default rate which fluctuates.

 

 

Shipping

  • You will need to set up shipping areas and charges via Bunnings first. Login to Bunnings and then go to  "My Account - Settings - Shipping and Delivery'
  • Once you have set up the shipping in Bunnings, you can then link Omnivore to the shipping classes in Bunnings.  This article outlines more steps and guides.
  • You can also create Product Groups in Omnivore and attach them to different shipping classes in Bunnings so that different products can have different shipping charges

 

 

Stock Buffer

  • You can set up a stock buffer under 'Settings - Administration - Product Import' if you carry low levels of stock and want to reduce the chance of overselling.

 

Image Size

  • Images for Bunnings marketplace must be at least 600x600 pixels. If they are less than this, they will not be displayed.

 

Size Chart

  • If you are selling products which require a size chart, you can add an image of the Size Chart to all listings or a group of products.
  • Create the Product Group (go to 'Products - Product Groups' in Omnivore) then go to ‘Products – Product Actions’ and click ‘Create size chart’. 
  • Complete the required information. You will need the image hosted on a URL to enter here.

 

Product Condition

The information below shows how Product Condition works between Omnivore and Bunnings Marketplace.

Specific Conditions Are:

  • Omnivore Condition = new -> Marketplace = new

Testing

  • Omnivore strongly recommends testing the set up before launching your live store.
  • Firstly test your ecommerce connection:  Navigate to SETTINGS / FEEDS / GENERAL in the left hand menu.  Select the TEST CONNECTION button (about half way down the page).  If successful this will show "API connection successful"
  • Secondly test your order flow:  Navigate to a product page and scroll down to the marketplace product details.  You should see a a yellow SEND TEST button.  Select this and it will send a test order to your ecommerce system. Fulfil the order as normal  (there is no money attached to the order).  If successful, then process a refund from your eCommerce system as per normal. This means you can then mark the order as REFUNDED ONLINE in Omnivore.

Customer email address on orders

  • Bunnings does not give out the customers email address. If the customer email address is a required field in your ecommerce system, please go to 'Settings - Bunnings - General' and enter ${order_id}@<yourdomainname> in the field 'Default Order Email'.  For example, if your domain is www.bestshoesintown.com you would enter ${order_id}@<bestshoesintown.com>.  If you did not want to add your own domain you can enter this: ${order_id}@bunnings.com.au.  If you are unable to see this setting please contact our Support Team and we can set this one up for you.
