Why teams connect SAP Business ByDesign and Shopify

Close the gap between front office and back office: Shopify and SAP Business ByDesign share customers and status in real time, in both directions.

Shopify holds the customer relationship; SAP Business ByDesign runs the operations and records behind the business. The two overlap wherever the same organizations and transactions matter to both, and when that overlap is bridged by re-keying or overnight batch, each side spends the day working from stale data.

Stacksync syncs ProductMedias, ProductVariants, Orders, Customers in Shopify with Purchase Orders, Opportunities, Projects, Employees in SAP Business ByDesign field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • Keep customer records aligned between Shopify and a CRM for segmentation and lifetime-value analysis.
  • Write inventory levels from a WMS or ERP into Shopify locations to keep availability accurate.
  • Replicate customer invoices into a reporting database or collections tool without manual exports.
  • Align the ByDesign material master with external product catalogs and inventory systems.

Where SAP Business ByDesign is the finance system of record: money status on the account

Invoice and payment state from SAP Business ByDesign shows on the account in Shopify, so reps see balances before promising the next order.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or organization records, corrections in either propagate to the other, ending dual maintenance.

Where SAP Business ByDesign manages people and org data: keep Shopify aligned

Owners, territories, and org structure informed by SAP Business ByDesign stay current in Shopify.
