Overview
It is time to upgrade to Action tags' advanced capabilities. These new tags offer more control and flexibility, allowing you to manage your Shopify products more efficiently directly from your POS.
Note: All Mortar users are required to upgrade to Action tags. There is no cost to upgrade.
What’s changed
Removing tags in the POS no longer impacts Shopify. Action tags perform explicit actions to products in Shopify
Create new Shopify products
Now | Before |
Apply the "add" tag. | Apply any one of the web-ready tags. "accumula", "webstore", or "shopify" |
Delete Shopify products
Now | Before |
Apply the "delete" tag. | Archive a product or remove the web-ready tag from the product in your POS with your Archived Product Action set to "Delete". |
Existing products
Now | Before |
Mortar automatically links | Linking a product first requires a web-ready tag to be applied. Only then can Shopify products link with the same unique SKU or Barcode in your POS. |
Note: No existing tags need to be updated. This change impacts tags moving forward.
Action Tags
Action tags provide enhanced product management
Tag | Action |
Add | Creates products or variants on Shopify |
Delete | Removes products or variants from Shopify |
Archive | Archives a product and its variants on Shopify (Matrix/grid only) |
Active | Updates product status to "active" on Shopify |
Draft | Updates product status to "draft" on Shopify |
Note: Applying both "add" and "delete" tags simultaneously to the same product prevents it from being added to Shopify. To remove a product, apply the "delete" tag.
