Business value
Business Central partners with Shopify to help customers create a better online shopping experience. Shopify gives merchants an easy-to-use e-commerce solution. Business Central offers comprehensive business management across finance, sales, service, and operations. The seamless connection between the two applications synchronizes order, stock, and customer information. Merchants can fulfill orders faster and better serve their customers. This partnership supports Business Central's commitment to connecting data to help businesses adapt faster, work smarter, and perform effectively.
Feature details
Based on feedback from customers, we made several improvements in the user interface.
Get the Shopify URL more easily
The connector needs a URL in this format: https://<shop>.myshopify.com/. But after Shopify introduced Unified Admin, getting the URL for your store isn't as easy. To make it simple again, just copy the URL from Shopify Admin, such as https://admin.shopify.com/store/<shop>. The connector converts this URL to the format it needs.
Skip blocked or sales blocked items and variants
When you export many items and variants, some items might be blocked. You can't include blocked items and variants in price calculations, so the connector doesn't export them. The connector now automatically skips those items and variants. You don't need to filter them on the Add Item to Shopify request page.
Shopify Shop shows important fields when FastTabs are collapsed
The values of the following fields display even when a FastTab is collapsed:
- Shopify URL
- Enabled
- Sync Item
- SKU Mapping
- Customer Price Group
- Customer Discount Group
- Customer Import from Shopify
- Default Customer
- Shipping Charges Account
- Process Type
New stock calculation method
Many businesses use extensibility to implement the same stock calculation, so we made it standard functionality. The Free Inventory method is simple and efficient. The method takes the current inventory and subtracts what's reserved from inventory. It ignores expected receipts or demand.
Decide whether fulfillment synchronization triggers a notification
Use Send Shipping Notifications to control whether Shopify sends a notification when posted shipments synchronize to Shopify. The notification might be useful if your company sells services.
Guide users on item synchronization
Often, the first task people use the connector for is to synchronize products and items. To make that synchronization step easier, a notification in Shopify Products suggests the following actions based on your settings:
- Synchronize products, if your shop is configured to import products from Shopify.
- Add items, if you manage products in Business Central.
Extra checks reduce the risk of errors
- Check whether the selected currency code has an assigned exchange rate. If the rate is missing, the check explains the issue.
- Check whether Business Central is part of the fulfillment services in Shopify. Instruct users to enter a SKU Mapping.
Shopify Admin API version 2024-01
Business Central is moving to the Shopify Admin API version 2024-01. As of April 1, 2024, Business Central stops supporting the Shopify Admin API version 2023-04. To keep using your integration, upgrade to Business Central version 23.4 or later before this date. You can view the version of the Shopify Admin API and the date when the API expires on the Shopify Shop Card page.
