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](#shipping-class-match) below. #### After Import, Move To Select the folder you want orders to be moved into after they are successfully sent to 3LINX. You can use one of the default folders already in your store or create your own. Read the [Working with Folders](/start-here/getting-started-series/quick-start-overview.md#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 Select the folder you want orders to be moved into if they are canceled at 3LINX. For more information, see the [Working with Folders](/start-here/getting-started-series/quick-start-overview.md#working-with-folders) guide. #### 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 ![](https://251457507-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FAQOLMUJWMYtrpQ7Oxxca%2Fuploads%2FVubJZiSX8mVBfiz0S9NK%2Flegacy-ec7f9f7b5f68d25d8453.png?alt=media) #### 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](/guided-walkthroughs/products-and-inventory/how-to-work-with-inventory-quantities.md#send-counts-tofrom-order-desk) 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 ![](https://251457507-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FAQOLMUJWMYtrpQ7Oxxca%2Fuploads%2Fk4YjPLnBsfPPMTOTCUHr%2Flegacy-beece8a7ef07688e4dce.png?alt=media) 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](/integration-setup-guides/fulfillment-services/fulfillment-integration-product-settings.md) guide. #### Shipping Class Match ![](https://251457507-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FAQOLMUJWMYtrpQ7Oxxca%2Fuploads%2Fp2v8afTpPyC4Tgi8vq2n%2Flegacy-888bd141c42835139d97.png?alt=media) 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](#integration-settings) will be used instead for all of your orders. #### Order Level Details The following fields can be added as checkout data or order metadata to be passed through to 3LINX on an order by order basis: | Field Name | Field Description | | ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | PONumber | If the PO number for your order differs from the order number, set that value here. | | DC | The warehouse from which the order should be shipped. If nothing is set, 3LINX will send the order from the best warehouse they can. | | Rush | Use with a value of **Y** for rush orders and a value if **N** if the order is not rush. If no value is set the default will be **N**. | | PackingSlip | Use to pass the order’s packing slip URL. | | ShippingLabel | Use to pass the order’s shipping label URL. | | BillType | Use to pass the shipping account number. Accepted values are **R** (receiver) or **3P** (third party). If this field isn’t blank, the following additional fields are required: ShippingAccount ShippingAccountName ShippingAccountAddress1 ShippingAccountAddress2 ShippingAccountCity ShippingAccountState ShippingAccountZip ShippingAccountCountry ShippingAccountPhone | If you are unfamiliar with checkout data, see the [How to Work with Checkout Data](/guided-walkthroughs/orders-and-folders/how-to-work-with-checkout-data.md) guide. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://help.orderdesk.com/integration-setup-guides/fulfillment-services/3linx.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
