3PL - Merchant ID and Merchant Channel ID aliases

Merchant ID and Merchant Channel ID are required for CSV upload, but can be replaced with Aliases to use the names instead of IDs.

In the 3PL CSV upload, merchant_id and merchant_channel_id are to be used.
Finding these values can be tricky, and PULPO WMS provides an option to use the Alias name instead of the ID. To use the aliases, they have to be created first.


Creating a Merchant ID alias

Merchant ID can be found in the frontend view of PULPO WMS.

Click menu item Merchants in the Administration part of the side menu (1)

Select a merchant (2)

The ID is shown in the Merchants (3) tab of the merchant information

To create an alias to use instead of the Merchant ID, edit a merchant and type the name in the Alias in the merchant details as shown below

Creating a Merchant Channel ID alias

Since the Merchant Channel ID is not provided in the frontend, it is advised to create an alias for it. You can also request it from the support team, but creating an alias is a faster and easier solution.

To create an alias to use instead of the Merchant_channel_ID, edit a merchant and the selected channel, and type the name in the Alias in the channel details as shown below

After creating the merchant_id and merchant_channel_id Aliases, you can use the names in your 3PL CSV uploads instead of numbers.

Digits and spaces are not allowed in the merchant_id and merchant_channel_id Alias names
