Kaufland Dashboard
The Kaufland Dashboard is the daily view: what needs to be shipped, what came in, where orders or offers are stuck, and what is waiting for you. Every number opens exactly the records it counted. Kaufland is not set up here but on the Marketplace Card. How to get to your first order is described in Getting Started.
Opening the Page
- Via search: Kaufland Dashboard
- Via the merchantCENTRAL navigation in the Role Center: Kaufland
Getting Started
The note Getting Started appears while Kaufland is not enabled in merchantCENTRAL, or the Client Key or Secret Key is still missing. The setup wizard takes care of both.
Status
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Connection Mode | Where the requests go: Simulation – nothing is sent to Kaufland and nothing is read from there, Kaufland data comes in through the Channel Replay only –, Playground (the Kaufland test environment), or Live. Simulation and Playground are highlighted, Live is green. A click opens the Kaufland setup on the Marketplace Card. |
| Storefront | Limits all numbers to one country, for example DE; the lookup shows the enabled storefronts. Empty = all storefronts. The rows Shipment confirmations refused or without carrier and Refunds Kaufland did not confirm always count across all storefronts. |
License
The License FactBox on the right shows whether Kaufland has a valid license or demo. Without one, orders are not imported and nothing is sent to Kaufland; the scheduled tasks wait until then.
Key Figures
| Tile | Counts | Click Opens |
|---|---|---|
| Orders today | Orders received today, with the trend and the daily average of the last 14 days. | Today's orders |
| To be shipped | Orders with the status To Be Sent; below, the date of the oldest one. | Kaufland Orders, filtered |
| Orders with errors | Orders with the status Error or On Hold; Error Message gives the reason. The next run tries again. | Orders with errors |
| Offers online | Offers that are live at Kaufland, compared with all offers – the same count as Online on the Offers card; below, the pending price and inventory transfers. | Kaufland Offers, online |
| Offers with errors | Offers whose transfer failed; below, how many are out of stock or not live for another reason. | Kaufland Offers with errors |
Cards
| Card | Content |
|---|---|
| Order status | Orders of the last 30 days by status: Open, To Be Sent, Sent, Received, Cancelled, Returned. |
| Offers | All offers, split into Online, Out of stock, Not live, and Sync error – each offer exactly once. |
| Waiting for you | Only what does not resolve itself: orders with errors, items with price errors, returns to decide (a unit has arrived and is waiting to be accepted, rejected, repaired, or clarified), tickets awaiting your reply (complaints included), failed product data imports, shipment confirmations refused by Kaufland and those for which sending found no Kaufland carrier, refunds Kaufland did not confirm, and a return or ticket import that is switched off. Most urgent first; a row only appears once there is something to count. |
| Connection and tasks | Mode (Simulation, Playground or Live), last order import (red if it failed), scheduled tasks switched on, and tasks with errors. |
Below that is one row per enabled storefront with today's orders, the orders to be shipped, and the state: Running, order errors, or offer errors. A click opens the orders of that storefront. More than six storefronts are summed up in the last row; Show all opens the Storefront Configuration.
Kaufland in the merchantCENTRAL Cockpit
The merchantCENTRAL cockpit shows two Kaufland rows under Waiting for you: orders that did not come in (status Error or On Hold, no sales order yet, not cancelled) and refused shipment confirmations along with those for which sending found no Kaufland carrier. A click opens the records counted. The rows only appear once a Client Key has been entered.
The merchantCENTRAL tiles count the Kaufland orders anew each time the cockpit is opened: New Orders Today, Open Orders (Open and To Be Sent), Shipped Orders Today (orders whose shipment confirmation Kaufland accepted today), and Errors Today – orders and offers whose error arose today or occurred again today. An error that has stood unchanged for days no longer counts there; the Kaufland Dashboard keeps showing it.
Actions
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Refresh | Recalculates the numbers. |
| Import Orders | After confirmation, imports the orders of the enabled storefronts and creates the sales orders for those ready to be sent – like the scheduled task IMPORT-ORDERS. |
| Import Offers | After confirmation, imports your offers with status, stock, and price from Kaufland again. |
| Orders, Offers, Shipment Confirmations, Returns, Cancellations, Tickets | Open the lists for daily work – in this order, the same for every marketplace dashboard; they are also on the action bar. Cancellations opens the merchantCENTRAL Order Cancellations of Kaufland. |
| Refunds | Opens the Kaufland Refunds. |
| Advanced | The Kaufland Products with their product data and the technical pages: Order Invoices, Categories, Import Files, Reports, Warehouses, Analytics, Scheduled Tasks, and the API Log. They can also be found via search. API Log is only shown to users who may read the log. |
There is no longer a separate Kaufland Role Center: the Dashboard is the connector's start page, also from the merchantCENTRAL navigation.
