# Syntech

Bring Syntech's products, cost prices, and stock into OrderEazi Central, and send your Purchase Orders to Syntech, with the Syntech Feed Integrator app.

If you buy IT hardware from Syntech, recapturing its catalogue and stock, then placing each order again on Syntech's site, takes time. The Syntech app (**Syntech Feed Integrator** in the App Gallery) brings Syntech's products, cost prices, and stock into OrderEazi Central. It can also send your Purchase Orders for Syntech straight to Syntech.

### Before you start

You'll need:

* **Syntech account details:** Your **Syntech Key** for the product feed, and your **Syntech Order Key** for sending orders, both from Syntech.
* **Syntech as a supplier in OrderEazi:** The feed's products are linked to it. If you don't have one, create it first. See [Suppliers](/central/order-management/suppliers.md).
* **Permissions:** You need **View Installed Apps** and **Configure and Open Installed Apps**, in the **App Gallery** permission group. See [App Gallery](/central/apps/app-gallery.md).

### How to set up Syntech

1. In the main menu, select **Apps**.
2. If **Installed Apps** opens, select **View Gallery**.
3. Find **Syntech Feed Integrator**, and select **Install**.
4. On **Installed Apps**, select **Open** on **Syntech Feed Integrator**.
5. Enter your **Syntech Key**.
6. Enter your **Syntech Order Key**.
7. Choose the **Syntech Linked Supplier**.
8. Select **Save**.

From then on, the feed keeps the products' cost and stock up to date. Products and stock sync at most every 12 hours.

### What Syntech brings in

* **Products:** With their image, brand, colour, and other product information.
* **Cost:** Your Syntech cost, as the supplier cost.
* **Stock:** Syntech's Cape Town and Johannesburg stock added together, as the supplier stock level.

Like every feed, it brings in cost prices, not selling prices. Products are matched by their code, and the feed doesn't include categories. See [Supplier feeds](/central/apps/supplier-feeds.md).

### How to send Purchase Orders to Syntech

> **Warning:** A Purchase Order sent to Syntech is a real order. Check the lines and quantities before you create it.

Sending orders only works when your organisation's accounting system is set to **Standalone**, because the option only shows then. See [Accounting System](/central/order-management/integrations/accounting-system.md).

1. In the app, under **Supplier Ordering Integration**, turn on the toggle, and select **Save**.
2. On a project, create a Purchase Order for Syntech, as usual.
3. Tick **Create and Sync PO to Supplier**.
4. Create the Purchase Order.

The order is sent to Syntech in the background. When Syntech accepts it, the project's history notes it, and Syntech's order number is saved on the Purchase Order. See [Purchase orders](/central/order-management/documents/purchasing-documents/purchase-orders.md).

**Example:** You create Purchase Order PO000321 for 10 laptops from Syntech, with **Create and Sync PO to Supplier** ticked. A minute later, the project's history shows the order was created in Syntech, with Syntech's order number.

If the order can't be sent, the Purchase Order gets a note, "Unable to sync" with its number. Fix the reason, then select **Re-sync PO to Supplier** on the project's documents list.
