Product numbers are mandatory
Every product and every product variation requires its own product number.
For variable products, only the variation’s product number is used.
If at least one order item has no product number, the transfer is aborted. No customer and no invoice are created. An order note and a WooCommerce log entry explain the problem.
Professional Edition
The Community Edition intentionally focuses on manual invoice creation.
Automatic synchronization, PDF download, PDF email attachments and additional automation features are available separately in the Professional Edition.
