Shopify ERP integration
We connect Shopify and Shopify Plus to ERP, warehouse and order systems, including Kerridge, Sage and NetSuite. This page covers the options, the risks and how we run an integration.
The short answer
- Decide which system owns each piece of data, such as products, stock, prices, customers and orders, before choosing a connector.
- Use a native connector or an integration partner where one exists; build custom only where it does not.
- Test with real orders, returns and stock movements before launch.
Integration options
| Option | When it fits | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Native connector or app | Your ERP has a maintained Shopify app | Limits on custom fields and sync timing |
| Integration partner | Complex or several systems | Ongoing fees; agree who supports what |
| Custom integration | No suitable connector, or unusual logic | Needs documentation and an owner after launch |
