It is common for us to be asked this question: “Does Cin7 work with Shopify?”  

Yes, Cin7 Core (aka Dear Systems) connects to Shopify natively. We set the integration up for Australian businesses every month.

Cin7 is an all-in-one inventory management platform that integrates with Shopify to provide a seamless and streamlined experience for online retailers.

Cin7 Core is the backbone of the Cin7 products, providing a centralized platform to manage inventory, purchase orders, sales, and shipping across multiple channels. Cin7 is simply, really good.

Key Benefits for connecting with Shopify are:

One of the key benefits of integrating Cin7 with Shopify is the ability to keep inventory levels up-to-date across all sales channels in real-time. This helps to ensure that retailers never oversell products, and can reduce the risk of stockouts. Additionally, the integration allows you as a retailers to automate order processing, saving time and reducing manual work.

Another benefit of Cin7 is its robust reporting and analytics capabilities. Retailers can use the platform to gain insights into sales trends, inventory levels, and shipping information, helping you to make informed business decisions. With Cin7, retailers can also create custom reports, allowing you to track the metrics that matter most to your business.

In conclusion, all these products are powerful business software that can help online retailers using e-commerce platforms to streamline your operations and grow your business. With its integration with Shopify, Cin7 provides a seamless and centralized platform to manage inventory, sales, and shipping, saving time, reducing manual work, and minimizing errors. And that is worth a lot in todays online business environment.

   In the future (after June 2023 -Search for Cin7 Core if Dear Inventory is not showing anything anymore)
   
   
   

3. Install the Cin7 Core (Or Dear Inventory) app in Shopify

4. After installation, you will be directed to the Cin7 Integrations Shopify dashboard. From there, you will need to configure the new connection.
   
   

5. Shopify settings Cin7. Change as follow:

   1. General Setup

8. Alternatively, to download products from Dear to Shopify (our recommended method) click on Bulk listing
   
   
   
   1. Here you can use filters to list items. Be careful because whatever is listed in the grid can or will upload with the List Button.
   2. Products can also be uploaded individually via the Products -> Specific Product -> Channels option (this is much slower as you only work with 1 item at a time)
   3. The best way to upload products from Dear to Shopify is in the bulk listing screen as we just mentioned.
      1. The bulk listing feature will also let you know if the products meet the minimum required standards for it to be listed in Shopify.
         
         
9. Once products have been created, synced and listed, you can start importing new orders from Shopify into Cin7 Core.

11. To process the orders into your sales process flow, click on the Process button. 
12. To see import orders, you can view them in the go to “Sales” > “Search sales”. The new sales will be the latest orders added.
13. To keep your product and order information up-to-date, the order import process is automated. No manual intervention is required.
14. If you want to integrate your shipping, we suggest you set up shipping rates in Shopify. Go to “Settings” > “Shipping and delivery” in the Shopify Admin to set up your shipping rates.
15. Finally, to take advantage of the full range of features offered by the Cin7 products, you may want to set up custom integrations with other platforms and services. For more information on custom integrations, consult the Cin7 Core documentation or contact Software4Business support.
