Looking forward to talking to you soon. Thanks,
Quick question: will it only synchronize your products when you manually click the button in the backend or is there also an auto-sync option available? Or is that the ‘Enable Auto Order Synchronization’ option? Thanks!
Thanks,
I’ve sent you a skype invite, please let me know when we can have a quick discussion.
Thank you so much
Florent
Would like to hear it soon. Thanks.
