From Shopify sale to Sellsy back office

Shopify Plus + Sellsy integration

Let Shopify capture the sale while Sellsy carries the financial and operational record behind it. Synchron can turn eligible Shopify orders into Sellsy invoices, translate Shopify refunds into credit notes, connect customer and document context across both systems, and let Sellsy inventory drive the stock shown in Shopify.

One commercial event, one connected back-office trail

Carry the Shopify sale into Sellsy without rebuilding the financial record by hand

An ecommerce sale does not end when Shopify marks the order as paid. Finance may still need a customer record, an invoice, a payment entry or delivery paperwork; a later refund may require a credit note; and stock may be controlled by the back office rather than the storefront. Synchron connects those responsibilities so Shopify and Sellsy can each remain authoritative for the work they are best placed to manage.

Shopify Plus teams can use the proven Shopify workflow model behind this connection.

Connected workflows

Connect the three flows that keep commerce and finance aligned

Synchron turns Shopify sales and refunds into the Sellsy documents your back office works with, while inventory can travel the other way when Sellsy owns the stock position.

Shopify Plus to Sellsy

Orders → invoices

Turn eligible Shopify sales into Sellsy invoices using the customer, products, quantities, pricing, taxes and shipping context already captured at checkout, with optional downstream Sellsy document and payment steps around the invoice.

Shopify Plus to Sellsy

Refunds → credit notes

Translate full or partial Shopify refunds into Sellsy credit notes so the financial correction follows the ecommerce event instead of being reconstructed later by the finance team.

Sellsy to Shopify Plus

Inventory

When Sellsy is the operational stock authority, use its inventory movements to update Shopify availability so the storefront follows the quantities managed by the back office.

How it works

From Shopify checkout to a back-office record that can survive the full order lifecycle

The connection follows the commercial events that matter after a customer buys: the original sale, the documents finance needs, any later refund and the inventory position behind future orders.

  1. Step 1

    The customer completes the sale in Shopify

    Shopify remains the source for the ecommerce order, with the customer, products, shipping, pricing and payment context captured during checkout.

  2. Step 2

    Sellsy receives the financial document

    Synchron uses that commerce context to build the corresponding Sellsy invoice and customer relationship so the back office does not have to re-enter the sale.

  3. Step 3

    Finance keeps control of what happens next

    Invoice validation, payment recording, delivery paperwork and related Sellsy processes can follow the level of automation your team is comfortable with.

  4. Step 4

    Later events remain connected

    If Shopify records a refund, Sellsy can receive the related credit note; if Sellsy owns inventory, its stock movements can update the availability presented in Shopify.

Operational visibility

Make finance automation observable instead of invisible

Invoices and credit notes are business records, so a failed hand-off matters differently from a cosmetic website update. Synchron keeps the movement between Shopify and Sellsy visible so teams can understand whether a sale, refund or stock change reached the system that owns the next step.

  • Follow the order into Sellsy

    See the operational trail behind the Shopify sale becoming a Sellsy financial document rather than assuming the back-office record exists.

  • Keep refunds traceable

    Understand whether a Shopify refund produced the corresponding Sellsy credit-note activity before finance closes the period or customer service considers the case finished.

  • Investigate stock exceptions with context

    When a Sellsy stock movement does not produce the Shopify availability you expect, your team has a clearer place to review the integration activity behind it.

Why Synchron.io

Connect ecommerce speed with back-office discipline

Shopify is built to make selling easy. Sellsy gives finance and operations a structured place for documents, customer records and stock. Synchron lets each system keep that role while removing the repetitive hand-offs between them.

Turn sales into usable finance records

Carry the order context already captured in Shopify into Sellsy instead of asking finance to reconstruct the sale from scratch.

Keep refunds financially complete

Connect Shopify refund activity to Sellsy credit notes so after-sales decisions do not stop at the storefront.

Preserve finance checkpoints

Choose how much of the document lifecycle should be automated while keeping review and validation where your internal controls require them.

Give stock a single operational owner

Let Sellsy drive Shopify availability when inventory is managed by the warehouse or back-office team rather than by the ecommerce storefront.

Keep cross-system work visible

Use operational monitoring to understand what moved successfully and what still needs attention across orders, refunds and inventory.

Automate invoice creation without bypassing finance controls

The right automation is not always “create and finalise everything immediately.” Different finance teams want different checkpoints. Synchron can move the Shopify order into Sellsy while preserving the review, validation and payment process that fits your accounting operation.

Start with review when appropriate

Keep newly created documents in a state your finance team can inspect before they become part of the final invoicing process.

Automate validation when the process is mature

For predictable ecommerce sales, the workflow can go further and reduce the manual step between creating a Sellsy invoice and treating it as an approved document.

Reflect payment when Shopify already collected it

When your financial process calls for it, a paid ecommerce order can also feed the corresponding payment record in Sellsy rather than leaving the invoice apparently unpaid.

Include the documents operations actually use

Where your warehouse or administrative process relies on Sellsy delivery or order documents, those can sit around the same order-to-invoice flow instead of requiring another data-entry routine.

Turn Shopify refunds into the financial correction Sellsy needs

Refunds are where ecommerce and finance records often drift apart. Customer service may complete the refund in Shopify, but the back office still needs a document trail that reflects the reduction in the original sale.

Keep the original sale in context

Where the Shopify order has already become a Sellsy invoice, the refund workflow can connect the financial correction back to that existing customer and sales record.

Handle full and partial refunds

A refund does not have to reverse the entire order. Sellsy credit notes can reflect the portion of the Shopify sale that was actually refunded.

Let finance review credit notes when needed

Credit-note creation can support a review-first process rather than forcing every ecommerce refund directly into a final accounting document.

Keep Shopify users connected to the Sellsy documents behind an order

Moving financial documents into Sellsy should not make them disappear from the people still working in Shopify. Where useful, the connection can leave a route back to the Sellsy document so customer-service and operations teams can find the financial record without searching another system from scratch.

Connect the storefront order to its invoice

Give teams working from Shopify a clearer path to the Sellsy invoice created from that ecommerce order.

Do the same for credit notes

When a refund creates a Sellsy credit note, the relationship can remain discoverable from the order context used by customer-service teams.

Reduce cross-team hand-offs

Support, operations and finance can work in the system that suits their role while still being able to follow the same commercial event across both platforms.

Let Sellsy own stock when the back office is closer to physical inventory

Not every Shopify merchant wants the storefront to be the inventory authority. When goods receipts, reservations, adjustments and warehouse corrections are managed in Sellsy, the stock direction can be reversed so Shopify follows the operational quantity instead.

Keep inventory authority clear

Use Sellsy as the stock master when that is where your operations team actually manages product availability.

Reflect back-office movements in the storefront

Stock received, sold, reserved or corrected in Sellsy can influence the quantity Shopify presents to customers.

Avoid competing stock edits

A clear source-of-truth model reduces the confusion created when finance, warehouse and ecommerce teams independently maintain different quantities for the same products.

Can Shopify orders create invoices in Sellsy?

Yes. Synchron can turn eligible Shopify orders into Sellsy invoices using the customer, product, pricing, tax and shipping context captured by the ecommerce sale.

Do Sellsy invoices have to be validated automatically?

No. The workflow can fit a review-first finance process or a more automated one. Your team can decide whether newly created invoices should remain available for review or continue further through the Sellsy validation process.

Can the integration also create payments or delivery documents in Sellsy?

Yes. When those steps belong in your operating model, the order-to-invoice workflow can also support Sellsy payment records, delivery documents and related order documents around the ecommerce sale.

Can Shopify refunds create Sellsy credit notes?

Yes. Full and partial Shopify refunds can be translated into Sellsy credit notes so the back-office financial record follows the refund handled in ecommerce.

Can finance review a credit note before it is finalised?

Yes. The refund flow can support draft credit-note creation when your finance team wants a review step before completing the document lifecycle.

Can Shopify users get back to the related Sellsy documents?

Yes. Where useful, links to the Sellsy invoice or credit note can be written back to the Shopify order so support and operations teams can move from the ecommerce record to the corresponding back-office document.

Can Sellsy inventory update Shopify stock?

Yes. When Sellsy is the inventory source of truth, stock movements managed in the back office can update the Shopify location used for ecommerce availability.

How do we monitor the Shopify + Sellsy integration?
