Work with multiple Shopify stores
To sync different Shopify stores the process is exactly the same as for integrate a single store, you will simply have to repeat the same steps for each of the stores that you need to connect to your Holded account.
You can do it by synchronizing the stock level or the products: it all depends on whether you have items in your stores with the same SKU or not.
For example, in case of sharing the same SKU between stores, the selected stock in Shopify has to be the same for all products with the same SKU. Once in Holded, products will be imported for only one store, while stock sync will need to be enabled for all.
In case you have more Shopify stores, here are three different scenarios with our recommendations for the integration to work correctly.
Scenario 1
The SKU is the same for all stores, as well as the stock.
SHOP A | Enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
SHOP B | Do not enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
Scenario 2
Some stores share products with the same SKU and others do not.
In this case, the products that need to be imported are for one store only, while the others need to be created manually in Holded to avoid overwriting of duplicate items.
SHOP A | Enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
SHOP B | Do not enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
Scenario 3
Each store has a different product SKU and different stock.
SHOP A | Enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
SHOP B | Enable product sync | Enable stock sync |
