Connecting Bol.com

With the Bol.com connection, Stockhub fetches your orders from bol and sends your stock to bol. You create the connection yourself in the customer portal. You do not need API keys: you log in to bol and give Stockhub access to your seller account.

Creating the connection in Stockhub

1. In the menu, go to Integrations > Sales channels.

2. Click New sales channel. The Add sales channel window opens.

3. Choose Bol.com.

4. Enter a Description, for example the name of your shop. Optionally enter a Shipping name. This name appears on the shipping label. Click Next.

   

5. Under Synchronisations, choose what Stockhub exchanges with bol. Set each setting to Active or Inactive:

   • Import orders: fetch orders from bol.
   • Update existing product info and Import new products: you only see these if the fulfilment company has switched them on.
   • Update stock to channel: send your stock from Stockhub to bol.
   • Sync a virtual stock amount: this amount is added to your actual stock.
   • Send track & trace email: you only see this if the fulfilment company has switched it on.

6. Click Authorize Stockhub. For Bol.com there is no Save button: this button creates the sales channel.

7. You are taken to the bol login page. Log in with your bol account. If you have several shops, choose the shop you want to connect.

8. Click Toestaan (Allow) to give Stockhub access.

9. You return to the Sales channels page in Stockhub and the detail screen of the new channel opens. If you have to log in to Stockhub again first, the connection is completed after that.

If you cancel the bol login, the channel does appear in the list, but without a connection. Open the channel and click Connection failed. Click to authorize at the top, or choose Actions > Re-authorize.

After connecting

A new sales channel starts in draft status. You then see the message Pending sales channel approval. The fulfilment company activates the channel, after which the synchronisations start.

Good to know:

• Stockhub only imports orders that you ship yourself (Fulfilment by Retailer). Orders that bol ships itself through LVB do not come into Stockhub.
• If you want to send stock to the bol warehouse, you create an LVB shipment. You can read about this in LVB- en Amazon-zendingen.
• The Sync tab has a few settings that only apply to bol: Automatically cancel orders, Ignore cancellation requests and, under Returns, the setting Import returns without order.
• With Actions > Order sync date you can go back at most 4 days for bol.
• If you exclude products from the synchronisation, enter the EAN as the SKU.
• If the connection has expired or failed, give Stockhub access again with Actions > Re-authorize.
