Additional Options

WSI Compliance Mode Enabled

Integration Manager needs to know the WS-I Compliance mode Magento is in.

To see how this is set, go to System > Configuration > Magento Core API and look at: WS-I Compliance. The default is usually No.


While you're here, please set Enable WSDL Cache to Yes to improve your site efficiency.


Limit to single Store ID

This allows you to only pull orders for a specific Store ID, rather than all stores.

To find your Store ID, go to System -> Manage Stores and click on the desired store name in the right column.

The Store ID will be listed in the URL of the webpage:
