Shopify out front. Odoo running everything behind it.
Your store keeps selling the way it does today. Behind it, Odoo becomes the single source of truth for stock, orders, invoicing and fulfillment, so you stop overselling and stop re-typing orders.
What breaks when Shopify and your back office are not connected
Overselling
Stock in Shopify lags the warehouse. You sell what you no longer have, then refund and apologize.
Orders typed twice
Every Shopify order is re-entered into accounting and shipping by hand. Errors show up at month-end.
No real margin
Shopify knows revenue. It does not know landed cost, returns or shipping. Nobody knows the margin per product.
Returns in limbo
A refund in Shopify, a product back in the warehouse and a credit note in accounting are three separate jobs.
Multi-channel chaos
Add Amazon, wholesale or a POS and each channel has its own stock, its own prices and its own spreadsheet.
Reporting after the fact
You find out how the month went two weeks into the next one, from a spreadsheet someone built by hand.
What syncs between Shopify and Odoo
Odoo's native Shopify connector keeps both systems aligned in near real time. We configure the mapping to your catalog and your flows.

- Catalog, variants and images
- Available quantity per location
- Prices and price lists

Orders & customers
- Orders imported as they are placed
- Customers and addresses
- Discount codes and taxes
- Order status back to Shopify
Fulfillment & money
- Picking, packing and carrier labels
- Tracking numbers pushed to Shopify

Before you book
Do we need to change our Shopify theme or checkout?
No. The integration runs behind the store. Your theme, checkout and apps stay as they are; Odoo takes over what happens after the order.
Does it work with Shopify Plus and multiple stores?
Yes. Several Shopify stores can feed one Odoo, each with its own prices, warehouse or company, and share the same stock when that is what you want.
What about sales tax?
Shopify keeps calculating tax at checkout. In Odoo the tax is recorded on the invoice, and for multi-state nexus we connect Avalara AvaTax.
How long does the setup take?
It depends on catalog size and how many flows move to Odoo. We size it with you in a free 30-minute call and give you a written scope.
