How to integrate Zoho with WooCommerce?

Step 1: Connect to Zoho Account

• Install and activate WooCommerce’s integration with ZOHO CRM.
• Press the Home key.
• Select Integration Name, Data Center, Homepage URL, and Authorized Redirect URL from the Zoho CRM settings.
• Go to ZOHO API CONSOLE => Add Client=> Server-based application => Get Client Id and Secret. Make a new client. Get your client ID and secret information by registering all of your details.
• Authenticate your website.

Step 2: Mapping setting

To map the fields, start by entering the name of the organization to which your Zoho account belongs. By mapping the fields related to your decision, you can now sync order details from your site with Zoho inventory. You simply need to map those fields once, and the plugin will take care of everything else.

Customer Mapping

• Module: Following CRM connection, users must choose modules in which all customer data will be kept. Accounts, Contacts, Leads, and Custom modules are available to users.
• New Record: The user may use this option to build several linked lists relating to the customer’s information.
• Field Map: Users must link their wooCommerce checkout field to their CRM field in the Field Map. Assume you wish to use your customer’s first name as a Zoho inventory contact name. Then, in the wooCommerce checkout box, pick ‘First Name .’ In the Zoho inventory area, select ‘Contact Name.’ To manage your client information, you may map multiple fields to inventory fields. You can set ‘Custom value‘ from where you can send order notes according to the placed order.

Product mapping

The user must place the product in the module area from the product settings, which will keep all of the product data for each client from the user’s wooCommerce site. If any item on your wooCommerce site isn’t included in your CRM account, you’ll need to add that item or product. Then, similar to the Customer and Sales Order options, you may construct a connected list. You must map which wooCommerce site field will sync with the CRM field. One thing to keep in mind is that duplicate data will not be an issue. When a product is published and numerous customers order it, all of the customers’ information is sorted for that product.

(Only Pro Version) Sale order Mapping:

If you want to use this feature, you have to upgrade Zoho to the pro version. When utilizing the pro version, you must first choose the lookup field you want to use. The Customer Module may then be configured based on the lookup field. As with the Customer option, you must choose the sales order module and build a connected list in the New Record box. When a customer purchases on your wooCommerce site, a matching sales order will be produced immediately after you’ve mapped all of your preferred wooCommerce fields to CRM fields. You may personalize your sales order section to present your customer’s sales order on your Zoho CRM account according to your needs.

Step 3: Actions

Zoho owns 8 additional actions which help users to control the data submission as well as to track their leads/Contacts on a CRM account, including:

• Record owner: If you choose this option, you can specify who owns the transmitted record.

Step 4: Import to Zoho Setting

In this section, you may define a time limit for importing all data into CRM. For instance, you’ve had a wooCommerce site since 2020, but you’ve just been utilizing this plugin since 2020. When you set Start Date – 1/1/2020, End Date – 1/1/2021, Order Status – Confirmed, and Import Type, just the data you choose will be transferred to Zoho CRM when you click “Import Data” Simply click the ‘Import Data’ button to import all of the confirmed data from 2020 to 2021.
