Upload consignments

When to use this procedure

Use this procedure to regularly upload your new and sold consignment inventory data to the myconsignorlogin website (http://myconsignorlogin.com/account/login.php). This allows your consignors to view the sold status of their consigned items and their balance with your store.

Upload process

  1. Establish an Active-e contract for your store.
  2. Contact Tri-Tech Support to be setup on the myconsignorlogin website. Support will provide you with your store number. Your store site on myconsiginor login can be customized with your store branding and can include or exclude inventory details.
  3. Set up the system variable ConsginmentWebsiteUserIDs with the store number provided by support and your location ID(s).
  4. For each consignor who will access myconsignorlogin, set up a user name and password (up to 20 characters each) in the Consign User and Consign Pass boxes on the Add/Change Customer window - Billing tab. Provide that information to your consignors along with instructions on how to access myconsignorlogin.
  5. Upload your consigned inventory.

Steps to complete

Prerequisites: You must have an Active-e account and you must set up system variable ConsginmentWebsiteUserIDs with a valid store identifier to complete this procedure.

  1. On the Modules menu, point to Inventory, then to Consignment & Purchase, then click Consignment Upload. The Export Consignor Files window displays.

Your consignors can log in to myconsignorlogin with the user name and password you provided to view their consigned items and current balance.
