1.Introduction

This is the manual for the integration between Bol.com and Moneybird.

This integration ensures that orders from the Bol.com webshop are automatically processed to invoices in Moneybird. Because the orders enter the webshop owner's accounting system directly, it saves time on financial administration.

Please pay special attention to the following
  1. This integration is a financial integration. It is not a logistics integration. It is not suitable for updating customers in Moneybird, printing packing slips, or synchronizing products/inventory.
  2. This integration does not replace the work of an accountant. It saves time because you no longer have to retype documents. The accountant is still needed for advice, expertise, and control.
  3. The integration uses the default VAT percentage as configured in the Configuration tab of the dashboard. The integration is therefore not suitable for selling both 21% and 9% on Bol.com.
  4. Tip: Other customers using this integration found the tips in the FAQ for Bol.com and in the FAQ for Moneybird.

Install integration
Installing the integration starts with signing up for a trial period, via our integrations page. After registration, you will receive an email containing an installation URL and login details. With this installation URL, you start the installation of the integration.
The installation is complete when both connection dots are green, and the settings in the Configuration tab have been entered and saved.
There is a trial period of 30 days.
If you want to install another integration, you can do so in the same way. Make sure you are logged out of the integration dashboard and preferably start the new installation in an incognito browser.

Cancel integration
At the end of the trial or subscription period, the integration will not be automatically renewed. You will receive an offer for a one-year subscription or renewal by email at the end of this period. You can confirm the renewal by using the payment link in that email. Do you want to terminate the integration in the meantime? This is possible via the dashboard https://uwkoppeling.webwinkelfacturen.nl, Configuration tab > Cancel integration. The integration will then be cancelled immediately. Please note: After cancellation, the dashboard is no longer accessible.
Are you switching to another web shop/accounting system and do you want to re-establish a connection? In this faq we explain how to do this.
We advise you to revoke the consumer ID and secret within your Bol.com environment upon uninstallation of the integration.

2.How the integration works

A order from the Bol.com webshop is processed to a Moneybird invoice.

New orders from your webshop are retrieved at least once per hour. Orders are retrieved from the shipping list at Bol.com, not from the Open orders list. An order is only processed once all products in that order have been shipped. Outstanding orders are updated during the night.

Returns are not processed automatically. If you want to process returns, send us an email .

Pre-check orders
At the start of processing an order, we perform a number of checks on the Bol.com order:
  • It is checked whether the total of the Bol.com order is equal to the sum of the amounts in the order lines plus the shipping cost amount.
  • It is checked whether the order has not already been processed.

Processing orders
Processing a Bol.com order to Moneybird happens in two steps:

  1. It is checked if the customer already exists in Moneybird. If not, the customer is created. Matching is based on the email address.
  2. The Moneybird invoice is created and processed.

Post-check
After the order has been forwarded and a success message from Moneybird has been received, the order is marked as handled. The Bol.com order appears at the Reporting tab on the dashboard.

If Moneybird returns an error while processing the order, the order appears in the Errors tab on the dashboard. Via the yellow button More info more information about the problem can be found. Via the red button Report problem can the order with all necessary information easily be submitted to us after you have tried to resolve the problem yourself. If the problem is solved, in some cases the orders can be processed again with the blue Process button.

Data
Information about the data that is processed can be found in the section Day-to-day: To Moneybird later in the manual.

3.Required: Bol.com keys

You create the integration with your Bol.com platform using two keys: a client ID and a secret. You can create these keys within your Bol.com account.

Bol.com itself has a description with pictures on how to create the keys: https://api.bol.com/retailer/public/Retailer-API/credentials_for_retailer_api.html

4.Installation

After installation, check using this FAQ, whether the integration works.

Installing the integration starts with signing up for a trial period, via our integrations page. After registration, you will receive an email containing an installation URL and login details. With this installation URL, you start the installation of the integration.

Before the integration can be used, the terms and conditions must first be accepted. The terms and conditions are based on the general ICT Terms and Conditions (industry organization) and the general GDPR guidelines.

Bol.com authentication:
Authentication with your Bol.com account is done via the Client id and Client secret that you determined in a previous section. Click the red Connect button next to Bol.com and enter the Client id and Client secret in the popup window.

Moneybird connection
The connection with Moneybird runs via OAuth. Make sure you are logged out of Moneybird before starting the connection. Now click the red Connect button. A login screen for your Moneybird account will automatically appear. If you log in, you will get a screen asking if you allow the connection. If you confirm this, the connection with Moneybird will be established.

Administration and invoice layout
To use the integration, you must specify to which administration the invoices should be sent. You also need to specify an invoice layout for the Moneybird invoices. If you do not do this, the invoices unfortunately cannot be created in Moneybird.

Configure VAT rates and general ledger accounts
When setting up the VAT rates and general ledger accounts, a link is established between the VAT rates in webshop and the VAT codes and revenue accounts in Moneybird. You can always make adjustments by clicking the blue 'Modify' button and making a selection via the drop-down boxes.
NB: ledger numbers are shown in the image below. This is for illustration purposes only. For Moneybird integrations, a name is shown here.

Bol.com does not provide VAT percentages on your orders. Therefore, you can enter a default VAT percentage for NL, BE, and Other for the integration.

Intra-Community (ICP) and international deliveries
The Intra-Community supplies / ICP option is intended for business-to-business deliveries within the EU. These sales are invoiced with 0% VAT. A VAT number from the customer is required. The International option applies to deliveries outside the EU. For these sales, the integration expects 0% VAT; otherwise, the sales cannot be processed. Separate VAT codes and general ledger accounts can be configured for both ICP and international deliveries.

Once the VAT settings have been configured and saved, you will always see the selected VAT rates. If you want to start over, you can use the grey 'Remove VAT settings' button. Your current settings will then be deleted and you can begin again.

Configure payment methods
You can create a link here between the payment methods in the webshop and a fixed debtor in your Moneybird administration. Orders with a payment method from the list will then always be posted to this debtor. In that case, no new debtors will be created.

5.Day-to-day: From Bol.com

This section explains how the integration retrieves orders from the Bol.com account.

Processing schedule: The integration retrieves orders every hour from the Bol.com shipping list. This means that if orders are still in the open order list of Bol.com (or partially), the orders are not yet processed. The integration can go back up to 3 months in time to retrieve orders. After three months, the orders disappear from the shipping list and the integration can no longer retrieve them.

Once an order has been processed, it cannot be processed again. An order that is modified in Bol after it has been processed will not be adjusted in Moneybird.

The Netherlands and Belgium For some entrepreneurs, it is important to have a split between Bol.com orders to the Netherlands or Belgium regarding VAT returns and threshold values. It is possible to post the orders to country-specific ledger accounts. See the FAQ.

Returns
If you want the integration to process returns in addition to orders, please contact us. We will then enable the returns option. To process returns, the integration retrieves the order for which the return was created. This order is used to determine the return.

Please note: The integration only processes a return if the integration has previously processed the order to which the return relates. For more information see the FAQ.

6.Day-to-day: To Moneybird

Create transactions
At the end of this section, it is detailed at field level how we create a Moneybird invoice.

Information for processing payments is also described in this section.

Shipping status: It is possible to set the shipping status of the Moneybird invoice to sent. For this, it is necessary that the Moneybird debtor has shipping method manual. It is possible to request from us that a Moneybird invoice always or never receives the status sent.


Automatically send invoice: Even if the integration has the status sent, that does not mean that Moneybird automatically sends the invoice. After all, in Moneybird, the invoice can be sent manually or by email. If you want the invoice to be sent automatically by email, please contact us. We can then set that up for you.


Payment status: It is possible to set the payment status of the Moneybird invoice to paid. For this, it is necessary that the Moneybird has the status sent. In addition, the order must be paid. It is possible to request from us that a Moneybird invoice always or never receives the status paid. With Mollie payments, the Mollie transaction ID can also be processed to Moneybird. Via this transaction ID, Moneybird automatically reconciles the invoices.
Please note: Sometimes a payment for a order arrives after the integration has processed the order. In that case, the status of the invoice in Moneybird is not adjusted. Therefore, no payment request is forwarded. The only remedy is to contact us with the request to hard-set that all orders always receive the paid status.


Workflows: The integration does nothing with the Moneybird workflows. It is therefore not possible to include a workflow with the invoice.


Creating new debtors
When processing customer information, it is first checked whether the customer has been processed before. If so, this Moneybird debtor is used as the debtor for the Moneybird transaction. If the customer is not yet known, they are added to Moneybird. Matching is based on email address. Please note: The integration only creates debtors. The integration does not modify debtors.
