Overview
This document provides details of the Order API. It is recommended that you read both the Data API Introduction page and the Ometria data architecture pages before integrating with Ometria.
The easiest way to add order data to Ometria is to use the Push API and the Order API should only be used for specific cases.
If you sell products in multiply currencies, then use the OrderExtended objects to ensure currency conversion takes place.
Where base currency is used, this is the currency your Ometria account is set to report in. Local currency is the currency the product was sold in.
About the Order API
The Order API provides methods to create, update and retrieve orders. To create and update orders in bulk, see the Push API.
Customer
The customer used in the order can be associated with an existing profile or create a new customer or even be not associated with a customer at all (for example where the order was made in a store and the customer was not identified).
Note. The ID in in the OrderCustomer object is the Customer_ID detailed on the Contact object.
The following table provides details of how different customers are processed.
|
Values Provided |
Pre-existing in Ometria |
Action |
|
ID |
No |
A new profile is created. The new profile has no marketing preferences associated with it. |
|
ID |
Yes |
Order is associated with existing profile. |
|
|
No |
A new profile is created. The new profile has no marketing preferences associated with it. |
|
|
Yes |
Order is associated with existing profile. Where multiple email exist with different customer_IDs, the order will be associated with the record without a customer_ID. If a record does not exist with just email, a new profile will be created. The new profile has no marketing preferences associated with it. |
|
ID |
No |
A new profile is created. The new profile has no marketing preferences associated with it. |
|
ID |
Yes |
Order is associated with existing profile. |
|
Firstname & Lastname |
N/A |
Order is created and not associated with any profile. |
Refunds
When processing refunds in Ometria, different actions need to be taken whether the order is partially or fully refunded.
Partial Refunds
Partial refunds is where one or more of the total number of products purchased are refunded.
In this case the following values need to be passed for each line item being refunded.
|
Value |
Description |
|
quantity_refunded |
The number of units of that line item that have been refunded |
|
refunded |
The total price of refunded products in this line item |
|
quantity |
The quantity of the products purchased after the refunded units |
|
total |
The total price for the line item after the refunded units |
Full Refund
A full refund is where all products purchased are refunded.
In this case, the whole order needs to be resubmitted with the following values set.
|
Value |
Description |
|
is_valid |
false |
|
status |
refunded |
Note: Updating the order timestamps when refunding an order can affect the reporting. If you want the reporting to show when the order was made, then do not update the timestamps. If you want the reporting to show when the items are refunded, update the order timestamp. When updating timestamps, be aware that this can trigger automation campaigns.
When retrieving an order via the API, the value total_unit_quantity_refunded is automatically calculated by Ometria.
Product Matching
When passing orderlineitems, it is possible to pass either the product_id or sku. If the sku is passed, this is used to identify the right product in the database.
The following table provides details of how orderlineitems are processed.
|
Values Provided |
Pre-existing in Ometria |
Action |
|
product_id |
No |
A new product is created with the attributes passed in the orderlineitem. |
|
product_id |
Yes |
orderlineitem is associated with the existing product. |
|
sku |
No |
The order is created, but the product is not created. The order will contain the correct values, but you will not be able to report on the product. |
|
sku |
Yes |
orderlineitem is associated with the existing product. |
Note. When no sku match is found and a product is created with a matching sku after the order event, the sku will not be historically matched. To correct this orderlineitem, repush the order after the product has been created.
Currency Exchange
When passing orders that are not in the account base currency, a conversion will take place using the currency exchange rate as supplied by openexchangerates.org.
The latest currency rates are pulled into Ometria hourly.
Store IDs
The store identifier (used in orders and in the javascript tracking layer) can be any string value. We recommend the use of the sites domain name (e.g. example.com). If your store has variable 'sub-stores' (e.g. different territories) we recommend the naming convention <domain>/<language> (e.g. example.com/uk).
It is also acceptable to use numeric store IDs if you have these defined, e.g. "123".
