Feature Details

If you use Shopify B2B, you can configure the connector to synchronize prices for Shopify catalogs that are linked to B2B customers. The following steps explain the process.

Sync catalogs from Shopify

Select the Tell Me icon, enter Shopify Catalogs, and select the related link.

Select Get Catalogs.

Select the entry for which to define and export prices, and then fill in the fields as necessary.

You can use two strategies. One is the default strategy, where you can use settings similar to the ones for synchronizing the Price and Compare at Price fields for Shopify products (Shopify variant). The following table describes settings for the default strategy.

Field	Description
Customer Price Group	Determine the price for an item in Shopify. The sales price of this customer price group is taken. If no group is specified, the price on the item card is used.
Customer Discount Group	Determine the discount to use when calculating the price of an item in Shopify. Discounted prices are stored in the Price field and the full price is stored in the Compare at Price field.
Allow Line Disc.	Specifies whether you allow a line discount when calculating prices for Shopify. This setting applies only for prices on the item. Prices for the customer price group have their own toggle on lines.
Prices including VAT	Specifies whether price calculations for Shopify include VAT.
VAT Business Posting Group	Specifies which VAT business posting group is used to calculate prices in Shopify. This should be the group you use for domestic customers.

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2.

The 19th of the new functionality in the Application section is synchronize product translations to Shopify.

Automatically synchronizing translations from Business Central to Shopify guarantees consistent product descriptions and details across various languages. Offering customers product information in their native language enhances accessibility and satisfaction, which can boost conversion rates and foster customer loyalty.

Enabled for: Users by admins, makers, or analysts
Public Preview: –
General Availability: Oct 2024

Feature Details

To include translations to the product synchronization, follow these steps:

Choose the Tell Me icon, enter Shopify shops, and choose the related link.
Select the shop to open the Shopify Shop Card page.
To open the Shopify Languages page, choose the Languages action.
To import languages enabled on Shopify, choose the Refresh action. Notice that the primary language isn’t be listed. For the primary language, continue to use the Language Code field in the Shopify Shop Card.
For each language you want to include ino synchronization, fill in the Language Code field and turn on the Sync translations toggle.

That’s it. Translations are included every time you run the Sync Product task either manually or by using the job queue.

More information

A new Shopify permission (scope) is needed: read_locales. You must request a new access token.
The first export of items, initiated by the Add item to Shopify action, doesn’t include translations. You need to run Sync product and turn on the Can Update Shopify Products toggle.
Marketing text is only added for the primary language.
Extended texts are added for each language, plus extended texts where the All Languages toggle is turned on.
Attributes are added for each language. If a translation is missing, the primary language is used.
Item translations are added for each language if a translation is defined.
Variant translations aren’t used because the connector only exports the variant code, and not its description.

Extensibility impact

The CreateProductBody procedure in the Product Export codeunit takes language codes as parameters so it can be used for each language. Now this procedure is called multiple times according to the list of selected languages. Because it contains the OnBeforeCreateProductBodyHtml and OnAfterCreateProductBodyHtml events, those events are now triggered multiple times per item. The events now include the language code as a parameter, so you can skip translation or add your own logic.

I was working on a client project recently to help them implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. We encountered an error when using a configuration package to import the customers opening balances as sales invoices.

I haven’t yet covered configuration packages in my In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… series, but should be doing so fairly soon. Configuration Packages, formerly known as RapidStart, is a tool which allows you to import (or export) data to Business Central from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.

We had created a configuration package to update the Gen. Journal Line (81) table which holds the sales journals, selected the fields to import, populated the sheet and run the import, but when we validated the file we were presented with three errors:
