Integration Settings
After you have connected the integration, you can apply any necessary details or preferences to the settings.
Default Mail Class

If you need to apply specific methods for certain orders, match your method names to the names 3LINX uses in the Shipping Class Match section below.
After Import, Move To

You can use one of the default folders already in your store or create your own. Read the Working with Folders guide for more information.
After Shipment, Move To
Select the folder you want orders to be moved into as 3LINX sends shipment details back to Order Desk.
If Canceled, Move To

Automatically Send Imported Orders to 3LINX
If selected, every order that is added to Order Desk will automatically be sent to 3LINX.
Select this setting only if all orders will be sent to your fulfillment provider. If any orders will not be sent, or if you need a delay between when an order is imported into Order Desk and when it is sent do not select this.
Inventory Management Settings
Sync Inventory
Enable if you want your inventory stock counts to be pulled in from 3LINX.
For more information, see the How to Work with Inventory Counts guide.
Sync Interval
If Sync Inventory is enabled, choose how often you want Order Desk to check 3LINX for inventory updates.
Sync Warehouse
Use to set which Warehouse you would like Order Desk to use for inventory sync. Leave blank to sum all warehouse quantities.
Inventory Location Name
If you want to set a specific inventory location name for the products you have at 3LINX, set that name here. As 3LINX sends back reports, your custom name will be added as the location.
Product Settings
For more information on what these product settings in the 3LINX integration are for and how to use them, read the Fulfillment Integration Product Settings guide.
Shipping Class Match
If the shipping methods you set up in your shopping cart(s) don't match the shipping method names 3LINX uses, they won't know what methods you intend for them to use. When this happens, the default mail class applied above will be used instead for all of your orders.

| Field Name | Field Description |
