Monsoon Setup No AR

The Monsoon Setup screen is used to connect the Monsoon marketplace vendors from whom the bookstore will be receiving orders to their PrismCore Mail Order Customer ID and tender.


Marketplace: Each Marketplace website has been prefilled.

Active:  Check if active

Double Click to open the Edit Monsoon Marketplace dialog box.

Customer:  Billing customer for orders from this marketplace website (Click the ellipsis to select the customer from the list.)

Main Tender: Tender to be used with mail orders from this marketplace website (Click the ellipsis to select the tender from the list.) If you have Accounts Receivable and/or General Ledger please see the other documentation for set up information.

Expense Tender:  Tender for commission & expenses associated with selling on this website (Click the ellipsis to select the tender from the list.)

Non-PrismCore SKU:  Our recommended procedure is that every item sold thru the Marketplace must have a corresponding PrismCore SKU and stock on hand. If not, your inventory, and stock ledger will be adversely affected. However, this Monsoon Setup program requires a generic SKU attached to the active marketplaces.

  1. Create another Used Textbook DCC in 103 Department/Class/Category under Store Set Up on the Inventory Control Tab in PrismCore Admin.
  2. Create a Used Textbook item with the description “Marketplace SKU” with zero cost zero retail, and zero stock on hand with the new DCC created in step
  3. Then enter the generic SKU into the SKU column in the Monsoon Setup dialog box for each marketplace.

Do not use this SKU on Monsoon or marketplace websites.

If you need to deal with the Non-PrismCore SKUs differently than our recommendation please discuss with ICS Support.
