What each side expects
Bol.com and ChannelDock do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Bol.com
Bol.com thinks in orders split per item, with an EAN per line, its own order number and a delivery promise you are held to. Commission and shipping costs sit apart from the order line, so what you sell and what you get paid are two different amounts.
ChannelDock
An operational system wants complete data: an address that is right, a product that exists, and clarity on exactly what goes out the door.

Common questions
Can you connect Bol.com to ChannelDock?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Bol.com and ChannelDock, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Does ChannelDock need a complete address, and what if it is wrong?
ChannelDock needs a full delivery address to make a label. If the country and postcode do not match up, that shipment is held and shows in the log, rather than a wrong label coming out.
Can I choose the carrier in ChannelDock myself?
Yes. Which carrier and shipping method ChannelDock uses you set there; Schakel only hands the shipment over complete.
Do I still have to log into Bol.com once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the Bol.com seller account arrives in ChannelDock by itself. You only open Bol.com when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting Bol.com and ChannelDock cost?
You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.
How often does Bol.com sync with ChannelDock?
That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.
Does the connector also pick up Bol.com returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on Bol.com, so ChannelDock does not lag behind what actually sold.
What if Bol.com or ChannelDock is briefly unavailable?
Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
