```php
public function syncProductFromWooToErp(Request $request)
{
    // Memory and execution time optimization
    ini_set('memory_limit', '1G');
    set_time_limit(300);
    
    // Get parameters
    $sync_type = $request->get('sync_type', 'all');
    $limit = (int) $request->get('limit', 100);
    $offset = (int) $request->get('offset', 0);
    
    // Perform sync
    $result = $this->woocommerceUtil->syncProductsFromWooToErp(
        $business_id, 
        $user_id, 
        $sync_type, 
        $limit, 
        $offset
    );
    
    return response()->json($result);
}
```

**Features**:
- Memory optimization for large datasets
- Configurable chunk size
- Progress tracking
- Error handling

### 2. WordPress Plugin (`class-ade-woocart.php`)

**New API Endpoints**:

#### Products Endpoint
```
GET /wp-json/phantasm-erp/v1/products
```

**Parameters**:
- `page`: Page number (default: 1)
- `per_page`: Products per page (max: 500, default: 100)
- `status`: Product status (default: 'publish')
- `modified_after`: ISO date for incremental sync
- `category_id`: Filter by category ID
- `include_variations`: Include variation data (default: false)
- `include_meta`: Include meta data (default: false)

**Response**:
```json
{
  "success": true,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 123,
      "name": "Sample Product",
      "sku": "SAMPLE-001",
      "type": "simple",
      "price": "29.99",
      "regular_price": "39.99",
      "stock_quantity": 50,
      "manage_stock": true,
      "categories": [...],
      "images": [...],
      "variations": [...],
      "date_modified": "2024-01-15 10:30:00"
    }
  ],
  "pagination": {
    "page": 1,
    "per_page": 100,
    "total_products": 2500,
    "total_pages": 25,
    "has_more": true
  }
}
```

#### Other Endpoints
- `/products/{id}` - Get specific product details
- `/products/{id}/variations` - Get product variations
- `/categories` - Get all categories
- `/products/search` - Search products
- `/products/count` - Get product statistics
- `/products/sync-status` - Get sync status

### 3. ERP Utility (`WoocommerceUtil.php`)

**Enhanced Method**: `syncProductsFromWooToErp()`

```php
public function syncProductsFromWooToErp($business_id, $user_id, $sync_type = 'all', $limit = 100, $offset = 0)
{
    // Get products from WordPress plugin
    $woo_products = $this->getProductsFromWordPressPlugin($business_id, $params);
    
    // Process each product
    foreach ($products_data as $woo_product) {
        $result = $this->processWooCommerceProduct($business_id, $woo_product, $woocommerce_api_settings);
        // Handle result...
    }
    
    return [
        'total_products' => $total_products,
        'created_products' => $created_products,
        'updated_products' => $updated_products,
        'skipped_products' => $skipped_products,
        'has_more' => $has_more,
        'next_offset' => $offset + $limit
    ];
}
```

## Usage Examples

### 1. Initial Sync (Large Dataset)

```php
// Sync all products in chunks
$page = 1;
$per_page = 100;
$total_processed = 0;

do {
    $response = Http::get('/woocommerce/sync-from-woo', [
        'sync_type' => 'all',
        'limit' => $per_page,
        'offset' => ($page - 1) * $per_page
    ]);
    
    $result = $response->json();
    
    if ($result['has_more']) {
        $page++;
        $total_processed += $result['total_products'];
        echo "Processed: {$total_processed} products\n";
    }
    
} while ($result['has_more']);
```

### 2. Incremental Sync

```php
// Sync only updated products since last sync
$response = Http::get('/woocommerce/sync-from-woo', [
    'sync_type' => 'updated',
    'limit' => 100
]);

$result = $response->json();
echo "Updated: " . count($result['updated_products']) . " products\n";
```

### 3. WordPress Plugin API Usage

```php
// Get products from WordPress plugin
$response = Http::withHeaders([
    'Authorization' => 'Basic ' . base64_encode($consumer_key . ':' . $consumer_secret)
])
->get('https://your-site.com/wp-json/phantasm-erp/v1/products', [
    'page' => 1,
    'per_page' => 100,
    'include_variations' => 'true',
    'modified_after' => '2024-01-01T00:00:00Z'
]);

$data = $response->json();
```

## Error Handling

### 1. API Errors
```php
try {
    $result = $this->woocommerceUtil->syncProductsFromWooToErp($business_id, $user_id);
} catch (WooCommerceError $e) {
    Log::error('WooCommerce sync error: ' . $e->getMessage());
    return response()->json(['error' => $e->getMessage()], 500);
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    Log::error('Unexpected error: ' . $e->getMessage());
    return response()->json(['error' => 'Internal server error'], 500);
}
```

### 2. Individual Product Errors

$this->createSyncLog($business_id, $user_id, 'woo_to_erp_products', 'synced', $sync_data);
```

### 2. Performance Monitoring
```php
Log::info('WooCommerce to ERP sync completed', [
    'business_id' => $business_id,
    'created' => count($created_products),
    'updated' => count($updated_products),
    'skipped' => count($skipped_products),
    'execution_time' => $execution_time
]);
```

### 3. Error Tracking
```php
Log::error('Error processing WooCommerce product', [
    'woo_product_id' => $woo_product['id'],
    'sku' => $woo_product['sku'],
    'error' => $e->getMessage()
]);
```

## Security Considerations

### 1. Authentication

```php
// WooCommerce API settings
$woocommerce_api_settings = [
    'woocommerce_app_url' => 'https://your-site.com',
    'woocommerce_consumer_key' => 'your_consumer_key',
    'woocommerce_consumer_secret' => 'your_consumer_secret'
];
```

## Testing

### 1. Unit Tests

        'all', 
        10, 
        0
    );
    
    $this->assertArrayHasKey('total_products', $result);
    $this->assertArrayHasKey('created_products', $result);
    $this->assertArrayHasKey('updated_products', $result);
}
```
