JDS Product Sync
Imports products from the JDS Industries catalog into your store and keeps stock levels current. It targets either WooCommerce or FluentCart — you pick one platform, and the plugin writes products natively to it.
Current release: 1.6.0.
What it does
- Import by SKU — paste a list of SKUs and pull those products in
- Browse the catalog — search the JDS master catalog and queue products to import
- Price from a wholesale tier — choose which JDS volume tier is your base price, then add a markup percentage
- Reprice without re-importing — change the tier or markup and push new prices to everything already synced
- Scheduled stock sync — refresh quantities on an interval, with email alerts on failure
- Sync log — the last 50 automatic runs, with counts and errors
Requirements
| Requirement | Minimum |
|---|---|
| WordPress | 5.8 |
| PHP | 7.4 |
| Store platform | WooCommerce 5.0+ or FluentCart 1.0+ |
| JDS API token | Required |
You need administrator access — every screen checks the manage_options capability.
FluentCart Pro is optional
Stock quantities sync to FluentCart whether or not FluentCart Pro is installed. The plugin writes inventory fields directly, so Pro is not required for stock to work.
