At a glance

Importer Sync / BRA / Rating Threshold Crossed is a combined account-health alert for your Bonanza booth. It fires the moment any of three core health signals slips below its safe line: Bonanza Importer sync health (how cleanly your eBay, Amazon, Etsy or Shopify listings mirror into Bonanza), your average BRA (Buy-it-Right Asking) listing-quality score that influences search rank, or your booth rating. It sits in the Nerve Centre alert layer as a single early-warning pulse, and it pairs with the sibling cards below so you can see which of the three drivers tripped.

Calculation

This is a real-time alert rather than a rolling metric. Vortex IQ watches the three underlying Bonanza health signals - Importer sync health, average BRA score, and booth rating - and raises the alert the instant any one of them crosses its configured threshold. The alert names the driver that tripped so you can act without guessing. See the At a glance summary above for the default trigger lines and the worked example below for a typical fire.

Worked example

A representative reading of Importer Sync / BRA / Rating Threshold Crossed for a typical merchant on Bonanza. On 14 Mar 26 a booth running the Bonanza Importer against an eBay catalogue sees Importer sync health drop to about 91 percent after a batch of listings fails to mirror cleanly overnight. The alert fires immediately, flagging Importer sync as the driver while BRA (around 78) and booth rating (around 4.8) stay healthy. The merchant opens the Importer status, finds 40 listings stuck on a missing-attribute error, fixes the source data and re-runs the sync, clearing the alert. Vortex Mind traces the upstream cause back to the failed mirror batch, and Ask Viq lets the owner ask in plain English which listings were affected.

Known limitations / merchant FAQs

Q: How often does Importer Sync / BRA / Rating Threshold Crossed update? This is a real-time alert. Vortex IQ re-checks the three health signals on each data refresh (typically every 30-60 minutes for live integrations) and fires the instant a threshold is crossed. Force a manual refresh from the dashboard for an immediate re-check. Q: Why does my Bonanza dashboard show a different number? The most common reasons are snapshot timing (Bonanza may show a last-computed value while Vortex IQ tracks the live state), time-zone alignment, and filter scope. Bonanza also recomputes BRA and rating on its own cadence, so a brief lag between the two is normal. Q: Which of the three drivers should I act on first? Open the alert to see the named driver. A low Importer sync usually has the fastest fix (re-run the mirror), a low BRA points to listing-quality gaps, and a low booth rating points to fulfilment or service issues that take longer to recover. Q: Can I customise the alert threshold? Yes, alert thresholds are configurable per profile in the Alert Rules tab. Adjust to match your business baseline rather than relying on the generic default.
