How To Integrate—Step by Step The Following should be reviewed by an IT Dept.

Setting up your integration is a fairly simple process

Which can be completed generally in one day. You will then have

visibility to thousands of sku’s and additional products under the

Highest Heel brand to offer your customer via a fully transparent

drop ship program. No more missed order, customer service call

backs, and refunds for orders taken which are not available by the vendor.

Here is a brief outline of the steps and what the files look like for reference. If you need further as-

sistance, we can help introduce you to an outside IT firm, whom can further integrate for you and

customize your feed for a minimal fee.

Quick and Easy process -

Sign up as a Highest Heel customer by completing the new customer forms, credit card authoriza-

tion agreement, and image release forms.

Our office will give you online B2B access, marketing central access, and create a dedicated FTP

(file transfer protocol ) access point. Secure credentials will be sent within 24-48 hours from re-

ceipt of the completed company forms.

We will schedule the Automated feeds to your FTP folder within 24-48 hours, so that your system

can pull the inventory feeds and update your shopping cart with our inventory.

We will schedule a tracking number results feed that is placed daily in your dedicated FTP folder.

You server will upload you orders CSV files twice per day so that we can fulfill all of your newly

acquired Highest Heel sales!

That's it...Now your almost on your way to generate sales with no money invested!

Just review the following instructions and example, and don’t hesitate to call or email us with any

further questions at 502-855-3090, email: [email protected] & [email protected]

Step 1: How To Integrate—Access our Inventory Feeds

Access your FTP folder and download the following files at :15 minutes past the hour. Set this task as

often as you prefer. We suggest that twice per day is adequate based on daily volume.

Have your automated script mapped to your shopping cart update all the inventory automatically upon

transfer of these excel files.

Note: We offer two feeds

The regular inventory feed which is for all current and re-orderable merchandise. This feed will be

named: “HHinventoryexport”

The second feed is for all discontinued merchandise. This will allow you to create and offer items

that are still in stock, but at reduced prices to our customers. This feed is named “HHcloseout”

We ask that you set the stock threshold to 3 units per size = zero amount when creating your inven-

tory automation. This will greatly reduce any Unable to Fills due to gyrations in or inventory counts

and low levels.

Example of CSV HHinventoryexport feed.

Step 2: Map your orders exports to our CSV format

Next, you will need to map your Highest Heel daily orders using the file layout guideline and then re-submit

the completed orders to your FTP “Orders Folder” The following is the time line for submissions:

7:49 AM– Send all orders taken from the previous day at 2:00 pm through 7:48 AM on the current day.

These are your standard orders and will ship within 24 hours of receipt to your FTP “Orders” folder.

1:59 PM– Send all orders taken between 7:50 AM and 1:58 PM on the same day.

These are your 1st, 2nd, and 3 day air rush orders. They will ship the same day

Note: Take advantage of our central location. Most people will receive their product within 3 business days

without needing an upgrade to Rush status

Mapping Instructions example– Available from our customer service dept

File Layout on following pages

Example of Completed CSV files:

Note: Use naming convention for Rush submission as Item_date_b.csv

Orders_date_b.csv

These are your 1:59 PM order submissions to ship same day

For NON Rush submissions sent at 7:49AM use the same naming convention but change to _A

Here is what they look like when completed using the mapping guide:

Step 3: Provide us your Order Number Query for Tracking Results:

We will ask that you submit a “Input “ file to your FTP drive set to automatically send the INPUT.CSV file

to the “Fullfilled” folder on your FTP site at 7:55 AM and again at 2::05 PM. This will essentially follow

your FTP order batches for both your rush and normal daily orders.

This Input should always be named “Input.csv” and placed in your “fulfilled” folder on FTP.

Below is an example of what this file should look like:

Step 4: Pull the “Results” CSV back to your server

We use the “Input” file to query our SQL database based on your unique order number to our invoice, sales,

order and to your customer ID and provide an updated “Results” CSV every two hours starting at 9:00 AM

EST, until 5:00 PM each day.

When our shipping department creates the shipping label your tracking number is generated and will be

placed on this feed for you every two hours. We require that you pull this at :15 minutes past the hour at

9:15 am, 11:15 am, 1: 15 pm, 3:15 pm & , 5:15 pm EST. Your tracking results will fall within these parameters.

Integration Required Time Line and Logic Overview For IT Department—Note All Times EST

2: Sending us your Orders Step One- Send your Orders and Items CSV Files to us at: Batch B– NON Priority Orders Upload to FTP “Orders” Folder at 7:49 AM EST We will process this batch at 8:45 AM and begin shipping. Step One- Send your Orders and Items CSV Files to us at: Batch A– Rush Orders Upload to FTP “Orders” Folder at 1:59 PM EST We will process this batch at 2:30 PM and ship Rush orders

1: Download our Inventory File: We process the inventory feeds at :03 after every hour, every day, every year. You should set your system to pull these at :20 after each hour, or however many times per day you fell necessary. We recommend 2-3 time per day as a sufficient amount.

3: Send us the INPUT CSV file You are required to send the “Input” file after each order batch with the referenced information. You should send this file to us at 7:55 AM to corre-spond with your NON priority order batch. A final “input” file should be sent at 2:05 PM which will correspond to your daily RUSH orders.

4: Get your Tracking Info: You can pull the “Results” file with your shipping confirmation information as often as you like ever two hours. However, we require that you pull this file from your “fulfilled” folder at :30 minutes past the hour to en-sure all other tasks have run within your FTP
