CIN7 integrate with Shopify

CIN7 offers a built-in integration with Shopify, allowing for two-way communication between the platforms. Here’s a breakdown of how it might handle your specific needs:

Integration Setup

  • API Configuration: Set up API connections between CIN7 and Shopify. Ensure API keys and credentials are securely stored.
  • Integration Tool Selection: Choose reliable tools (e.g., Zapier, Automate.io, or custom-built middleware) for seamless data transfer.
  • System Compatibility: Ensure both systems are compatible and that necessary fields are mapped correctly.
  • Order Management:
    • Orders placed on your Shopify store will automatically download to CIN7.
    • You can process these orders within CIN7, including picking, packing, and shipping.
    • CIN7 can potentially integrate with your fulfillment provider (3PL) for streamlined order fulfillment.
  • Inventory Synchronization:
    • Inventory levels in CIN7 will be reflected in real-time on your Shopify store.
    • As orders are fulfilled in CIN7, inventory levels will be automatically deducted, ensuring accurate stock availability for customers.
    • You can potentially allocate inventory by branch or warehouse within CIN7 to manage stock across different locations.
  • Product Management for Market Segments:
    • CIN7 may allow you to create product variations or segments within the platform.
    • You can then assign specific products or variations to different sales channels, potentially including different Shopify stores for your market segments.
    • Pricing and other product details can be managed within CIN7 for each segment.

Important Considerations:

  • Third-Party Integration Tools: While CIN7 offers a native integration, some businesses might utilize third-party integration tools like AppConnect by ConstaCloud for added functionalities or customization.
