Thanks tm for your input! I would think the trigger, from what little I understand - would be the php page I load to do my initial sync. I really think the answer's in that page somewhere but don't know enough to know what I'm looking for. LOL
Here's the process.
1. Upload my excel sheet.
2. All products are automatically populated in opencart.
3. Enter the url in my browser to the initial sync php file.
4. Check FrontAccouting for my products. - hmm - Nothing there!?
5. Go back into OpenCart Admin, click "edit" on any product, click "save" on any product.
6. Run my php file again
7. Go to FrontAccounting - What do you know! The product I just edited magically appears (even though I technically didn't edit a thing).
So I don't think it's the "save" button that is the key to all this. It's likely the php file called sync-opencart-fa.php (which I'd be more than happy to send someone if they want to look at it).
Thanks again for your input! I've really got to figure this one out.

Topic: Item Syncing (5 replies, posted in Items and Inventory)
I'm not sure if anyone here can help me out or not but you seem like a smart bunch!
I have an OpenCart website that is synced to FrontAccounting using the Cartbooks syncing solution. I've loaded my 1000 products in OpenCart using Excelport (imported via excel spreadsheet). Everything works fine except for the fact that my products don't sync to FrontAccounting unless I "edit" & "save" a product in OpenCart backend. I don't even need to make changes to my product, just click "edit" & "save". Then it magically syncs to my FrontAccounting (upon loading the php sync page). I've talked to both Cartbooks & ExcelPort and obviously they're pointing the finger at each other. I can't manually edit & save 1000+ products.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks FrontAccounting! - Your software is awesome!!
