API installation - don't know exactly where to start. Help Please?

[jal-uk]

Hey,

 

I'm setting up a shop, and I'm using a fulfillment service (kind of like a dropshipper) and they gave me these pdf's to set up the system but I'm not sure what to do.

 

The tech support says:

In order to integrate the myWarehouse systems with your shopping cart, your website developers need to include some new code that can contact our servers when a sale is made via your site. This is done by adding a function that “calls our webservices” every time an order is processed at your end, and your site at that point pushes the order information to us.

 

 

 

Depending on the platform your site is programmed on, the exact nature of the code will vary, but if you forward the API documentation to your web developers then they should be able to add functions to push the order details to us quite easily.

 

 

 

As such, adding the myWarehouse API calls to your site is not a “drag and drop” process, it does require some coding, but as long as your orders are held on a database on your eCommerce site then submitting them to us should be a simple process.

 

 

If you could have a look at the pdf's and tell me what you think. I will be very grateful.

I've heard of using PHP SOAP script but not sure how to integrate all this with oscommerce.

 

Any help would be great, Thanks
