#### This process will pull your BigCommerce products into CRM and push the variant custom fields back to your BigCommerce store. <a href="#this-process-will-pull-your-bigcommerce-products-into-crm-and-push-the-variant-custom-fields-back-to" id="this-process-will-pull-your-bigcommerce-products-into-crm-and-push-the-variant-custom-fields-back-to"></a>

#### The BigCommerce Plugin contains a **Synchronization Status** which updates as the BigCommerce Sync progresses. The following statuses will show in the Synchronization field. <a href="#the-bigcommerce-plugin-contains-a-synchronization-status-which-updates-as-the-bigcommerce-sync-progr" id="the-bigcommerce-plugin-contains-a-synchronization-status-which-updates-as-the-bigcommerce-sync-progr"></a>

**Submitted: BigCommerce sync has been submitted but has not started yet. This happens as soon as you hit the blue “Sync Products” button.**

**In Progress: BigCommerce sync has started and is currently in progress. At this point your BigCommerce products should be importing.**

**Completed: BigCommerce sync is completed. All BigCommerce products have been pulled and variant custom fields have been updated in BigCommerce.**

**Failed: This status will display if the BigCommerce sync fails for any reason. The most common problem is the merchant client app not granting proper permissions to access the API.**

#### Depending on how many products reside inside BigCommerce , it may take a little time for them to all be pulled in. <a href="#depending-on-how-many-products-reside-inside-bigcommerce-it-may-take-a-little-time-for-them-to-all-b" id="depending-on-how-many-products-reside-inside-bigcommerce-it-may-take-a-little-time-for-them-to-all-b"></a>

#### When the sync is finished, navigate to **CRM** → **Products.** Edit one of the BigCommerce Products. The BigCommerce variants are in the Product Variants section. <a href="#when-the-sync-is-finished-navigate-to-crm-products.-edit-one-of-the-bigcommerce-products.-the-bigcom" id="when-the-sync-is-finished-navigate-to-crm-products.-edit-one-of-the-bigcommerce-products.-the-bigcom"></a>

Variant Product prices can be overridden. By selecting Override Price, you can define an alternate price for your product variant. Be sure to Update.

{% hint style="warning" %}
BigCommerce variants are view-only in CheckoutChamp, except for price. If any changes are needed besides the price, make the changes in BigCommerce and sync products again via the plugin.
