Custom Shopify integrations

Connect Shopify with ERP, accounting, warehouse and internal systems.

We design data flows for orders, products, inventory, customers, documents and shipments. Each integration defines data ownership, conflict rules, diagnostics and safe retry behaviour.

An integration is not just a connection between two APIs. It has to define which system owns each data object, what happens during a conflict, how duplicates are prevented and what the team sees when only part of the workflow fails.

Data flows

Each data group needs its own direction, identifier and failure scenario.

Orders and documents

An order can continue into ERP or accounting, receive a document number and change state without creating a duplicate.

  • orders, cancellations and refunds
  • invoices, credit notes and payments
  • tax, currency and state mapping

Products, pricing and inventory

The source of truth may be PIM, ERP, warehouse or Shopify. Direction and permitted changes are defined for every object.

  • products, variants and media
  • price lists and market pricing
  • inventory, locations and reservations

Customers and B2B

Company accounts, addresses, segments and permissions need rules for consent, access and record merging.

  • customer and company profiles
  • B2B pricing and approvals
  • CRM segments and consent

Shipping and fulfilment

A shipping service can receive the order, pickup point and address and return a label, tracking reference and shipment state.

  • pickup points and shipping mappings
  • shipment and label creation
  • fulfilment and tracking events

Marketing and analytics data

Events, product exports and audiences must respect consent, stable identifiers and destination-platform capabilities.

  • product and advertising feeds
  • events and data layer
  • audiences, attribution and reporting
Operational resilience

Partial failure must not remain hidden.

Design covers more than the happy path: timeout, unavailable API, changed schema, conflicting edits and repeated webhooks all need defined handling.

Data ownership

Each object has a named source of truth and permitted direction of change.

Idempotency

A retry does not create another order, document, customer or shipment.

Diagnostics

Logs include the identifier, step and failure reason without exposing sensitive data.

Safe retries

The team can repeat one operation without rerunning the whole flow blindly.

Alerts

Critical errors and a growing failure queue have a defined recipient.

Interface changes

API versions and mappings are checked before production release.

Shopify and POHODA

Orders, inventory and documents for the actual edition and deployment.

A new connector starts with an inventory of objects, directions and permissions. It confirms which data Shopify owns, which data POHODA owns and how cancellations, documents, inventory and differing states are handled.

  • Shopify → POHODA: orders, customers and agreed events
  • POHODA → Shopify: products, pricing or inventory according to ownership
  • Return states: document numbers, processing and diagnostics
FAQ

Decisions to make before implementation.

What do you need for an initial assessment?

System names, example objects, required direction, approximate volume and a description of the current manual step or failure.

Is bidirectional sync always better?

No. A bidirectional flow adds conflict paths and is used only where both systems genuinely need to initiate changes.

How are duplicates prevented?

Stable external identifiers, idempotent operations and processed-event records are used. The exact mechanism depends on the API.

Do you support every ERP or carrier version?

Compatibility is confirmed by edition, version, permissions and interface. A third-party name does not imply support for every configuration or official partnership.
