Hi Patrick,

Quote:
1. Does 3dcart have the ability to email drop shipping companies when orders come in?
Yes you can setup drop shippers that get notified when an order comes in. You have full control over the layout of the email that is sent to them too, so you can customize if you want them to see pricing, and limit what kind of customer information they get.

2. Can I update inventory amounts automatically somehow ie. I have an automated PHP script on my server someplace that can connect to my store and update inventory amounts nightly?
Although the API does not have an "ADD product" method, it does have an Update Stock method, so you can use it to update your stock. The code is pretty simple if you ever used web services, essentially you call the service with ID and stock, and it will update it. There is also an update order status that you can use if you happen to manage your orders on another system, and want to synchronize the status.

Here is a link to the documentation of the current API.
