Walmart Marketplace is a professional, invitation-only platform where you can sell your products on Walmart.com. You can connect your Walmart Marketplace store to Cin7 to download sales orders and customer information or update stock levels and order statuses. 

How to Connect Cin7 to Walmart Marketplace 

The first step is to get your API Key and Secret Key from Walmart Marketplace. Enter them into Cin7 together with your seller ID. 

You can change your Walmart Marketplace settings once you’re connected. Download Walmart Marketplace orders and dispatch them in Cin7. You can also update the status of orders or stock levels. But to update stock levels, the products must be in Cin7 and Walmart Marketplace, and their codes or SKUs must match. 

On the Walmart Marketplace dashboard, you can find tiles for specific information or key actions. 

  • Order Activity: It shows the number of recent orders and the last downloaded dates. This tile also lets you download orders and view mapped orders. 
  • Order Status: It shows orders that were last downloaded, the number of orders downloaded today and the last seven days. 
  • Stock Activity: It lets you know which products are low in stock and any errors regarding stocks. 
  • Stock Update Status: It displays when stocks were last updated, the number of stock items updated today, and the previous seven days. There’s also a link for updating stock information.

  1. Fill in the form on the EDI Setup page with the following information: 
  • Your Supplier Information (Vendor Number, technical contact email address) 
  • Additional notes/requirements 
  • GS1 Prefix 
  • Product Setup (FIFO, Batch, Perishable, or Serial)

  3. Next, choose Integrations from the App Store. 
  4. Select the retailer you want to connect under Retailers. This will create a new retailer module under the Integrations category. 
  5. The request will be forwarded to the Cin7 EDI team, who will contact you regarding connection configuration and compliance testing. You may also contact Cin7 Support for help in adding connections.  

For new EDI Retailer integrations, you will need to check with the Cin7 Support team if there are any additional details they’ll need. 

  1. Request technical documentation from the Cin7 EDI team so they can review the documentation and ensure connectivity. 
  2. Once confirmed, the Cin7 EDI team will log the mapping.
