Shopify ERP Integration

Connect Shopify to your ERP to reduce manual order entry, keep stock levels accurate, and simplify accounting. Start with the system you use.

Choose your next step

  • Your ERP runs in the cloud

    The main work is mapping your data between systems. Cloud connections usually take less time and cost less.

  • Your ERP runs on your own servers

    Your network setup affects the timeline. We involve your IT team in the first week to plan secure access.

  • Your ERP has been customised heavily over the years

    We review your customizations and agree which ones to keep, replace, or retire.

  • You only need the books to balance, not a full ERP

    Syncing orders and payouts to your accounting software is a smaller project than a full ERP integration. We quote the work you need.

Common questions

Which ERP integrates best with Shopify?

Business Central has the strongest first-party story because Microsoft ships and maintains a free Shopify connector. NetSuite has the most mature third-party middleware. Acumatica has a clean modern REST API. SYSPRO and older SAP need more custom work because they are typically on-premise. Best in practice means whichever ERP you already run, integrated properly.

How long does an ERP integration take?

Four to fourteen weeks depending on the system and complexity, and most of that is not coding. Field mapping, cleaning existing item data, and UAT dominate. The single biggest schedule risk is dirty source data in the ERP, which is why discovery comes before any build.

Can we keep the ERP as the system of record?

Yes, and you should. The ERP owns inventory, pricing, and finance while Shopify owns the storefront and customer experience. We never write to your general ledger directly: orders create sales orders and your existing posting rules handle the accounting, so finance keeps one auditable path.

What happens when the ERP goes down?

Shopify keeps selling. Every event queues durably and replays in order once the ERP responds again, which matters most at month-end when many ERPs lock for period close. Any integration without a durable queue will silently drop orders during that window.

Do we need middleware or can we integrate directly?

You need something holding queue state, retries, and idempotency, whether that is a licensed platform or a service in your own cloud. Direct point-to-point integrations fail because they have nowhere to put an event when the other side is unavailable. The choice is which middleware, not whether.
