Supplier FTP Stock - V1
------------------------

History:
-------- 
Released as V1 1 July 2026

What it does:
-------------
Some of my larger suppliers provide FTP access to .csv files containing live (or at least updated daily) stock levels for all their products.

Keeping stock levels updated minimises the number of refunds having to be given (Together with the loss of payment fees!)

This mod is a really simple but extremely useful feature which adds an extra page to your admin called Supplier Stock Manager

This is accessed through the admin - tools menu.

Once set up you can automatically update your stock to match your suppliers at the push of a button.

Installation:
-------------
Just three files to upload to your system, respect the directory structure.

Once installed go to your admin - tools menu and select the "Supplier FTP Manager" menu item

Select "Add New Supplier" and fill in the FTP credentials and file path / name. Click "Save Profile"

Now click "Test" next to the supplier to test the FTP Connection.

Once everything is set, tick the box next to the chosen supplier and click "Update Selected"

You will get a message telling you how many products have been updated.

Note:
This works by part number  - if your part number differs from that of your supplier, even slightly, then that product will be skipped.

See the "Help and Instructions" Tab for further instructions and required .csv format


Enjoy!

All my Add Ons have ben tried over many years on my OSC stores and have proved to be essential, or at the very least very useful ! I have tried to maintain, or in many cases improve, the functionality for Pheonix

As usual, no responsibility will be accepted for anything! :)
