Sync WFS Orders

Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS) is Walmart’s own fulfillment network that allows sellers to store inventory in the marketplace’s warehouses. It handles the entire fulfillment process, including picking, packing, shipping, customer service, and returns. More information can be found HERE.

By default, LitCommerce does not import WFS orders. Enabling this feature to retrieve these orders into our system for import to your Main Store. This helps with inventory management and sales reporting.

Sync 3PL Orders

Walmart 3PL (Third-Party Logistics) refers to using external logistics providers or other warehouse partners to fulfill orders placed on Walmart. It offers great flexibility and can support multi-channel fulfillment.

By default, LitCommerce does not import 3PL orders. Enabling this feature to retrieve these orders into our system for import to your Main Store. This helps with inventory management and sales reporting.

Auto Acknowledgement New Orders

To move forward with fulfillment, Walmart requires that you acknowledge orders within a specific timeframe. The Auto Acknowledgement New Orders feature allows the process to be automatic.

Once the feature is enabled, new orders imported to LitCommerce will be marked as “Acknowledge” on Walmart.

Other settings

Clean Listing Description

Enable this option to automatically trim the listing description if it exceeds the 4000-character limit. This feature will apply to new listings added to the LitCommerce Walmart channel.

For existing listings on the channel, perform the action Publish to Walmart/Save & Publish or Update To Walmart to apply this feature and reflect the updated data on the marketplace.

Listing Sync Error Alerts

Enable this setting to receive email notifications when your Walmart listings fail to sync.

Unselect Products after Bulk Action

By default, selected listings remain checked after bulk actions. Enable this setting to automatically clear selections to prevent duplicate actions.

Sync to Main Store

If your Main Store has multiple warehouse locations, select one warehouse to do the following:

• Sync to Location (only available for the Square Main Store): Update inventory in a specific warehouse when Walmart orders are imported.

• Create on Location (available for both the Shopify and Square Main Stores): Update stock in a selected warehouse when creating listings from Walmart to the Main Store.

Carrier Service Mapping

If the Main Store carrier service is not supported by Walmart, orders fulfilled by that carrier may lack complete tracking information.

Enable this option to map the Main Store carriers to Walmart carriers. This ensures accurate tracking details appear in Walmart Order Tracking.

This feature is only available for accounts with the Shopify or BigCommerce Main Store

Once you have completed setting up the Walmart Channel Settings, save the configurations at the bottom of the interface.
