Shopify WMS Integration Services

When Shopify inventory does not update as stock moves through a warehouse, you get overselling, delayed shipping notifications, and reconciliation work that should not exist. Shero develops WMS integrations for brands with owned warehouses, connecting Shopify to the system that manages the physical flow.

Locations

Each warehouse set up as a Shopify location

Shopify tracks stock by location, so each warehouse in your WMS becomes its own location in Shopify. We map them one to one, so the stock customers see matches what each warehouse holds.

Tracking

Sent back to Shopify when the order leaves

When the WMS confirms a shipment, we send the carrier and tracking number back to Shopify, which emails the customer their shipping update. The OMS integration covers the routing layer above the WMS.

Lots and expiry

Batch data kept for regulated products

If you sell food, supplements or cosmetics, your WMS may track lot numbers and expiry dates. We pass the lot that went out back onto the Shopify order, so you can trace it in a recall.

Two-way

Orders out, stock and tracking back

A complete WMS integration sends Shopify orders to the WMS for pick and pack and returns inventory levels and fulfillment status to Shopify automatically. For brands using third-party fulfillment, the 3PL integration covers the same data flows for outsourced warehousing.

"Working with Shero was professional, efficient, and inspiring."

What a Shopify WMS integration covers

A WMS integration connects Shopify's order and inventory model to the warehouse system's location, bin, and movement data, keeping stock levels accurate in Shopify as physical inventory moves through the warehouse. Shero maps your WMS location structure, inventory movement types, and order processing workflow before any API configuration begins.

01

Inventory discrepancy identified and root cause mapped first

The most common WMS integration failure is setting up the sync before mapping how the WMS and Shopify count inventory differently. Shero starts with an inventory data model comparison (how the WMS tracks location, movement, and reservation) before designing any sync logic.

02

WMS location structure mapped to Shopify inventory

Enterprise WMS platforms manage inventory at the bin and location level, which has no direct equivalent in Shopify's simpler location model. Shero maps the WMS location hierarchy to Shopify inventory locations in discovery so stock levels in Shopify reflect accurate available-to-sell quantities.

03

Order routing from Shopify to WMS pick queue

Shopify orders need to enter the WMS pick queue in the correct format with the correct priority and location assignments. Shero maps the order translation logic so WMS pick tasks are generated correctly from Shopify orders without manual re-entry.

04

Receiving and ASN data returned to Shopify

When stock arrives at the warehouse and is received in the WMS, Shopify inventory needs to update automatically. Shero sets up the receiving sync so ASNs and purchase order receipts in the WMS trigger inventory updates in Shopify without manual adjustment.

05

Fulfillment status and tracking returned automatically

When the WMS marks a shipment as complete, tracking data and fulfillment status need to reach Shopify immediately so buyer notifications trigger and order status stays accurate across channels.

06

Ongoing support as warehouse configurations evolve

Warehouse configurations change over time: new bin locations, additional zones, and seasonal layout changes all affect inventory data. Shero provides ongoing WMS integration maintenance so the Shopify sync stays accurate. For brands also managing order routing above the warehouse layer, the Shopify warehouse management page covers the broader operational picture.

One version of your inventory and orders

When Shopify and your back office disagree, you oversell, send orders out late or chase invoices. We build the sync so both sides match.

Inventory
Stock levels synced from your ERP or warehouse so Shopify never sells what you do not have.
Orders
Orders flow to your ERP with taxes, discounts and shipping in the right fields.
Products and pricing
Products, price lists and B2B pricing pushed from your system of record.
Monitoring
Failed syncs flagged and retried before they turn into customer emails.

Shopify WMS integrations take 10 to 18 weeks. Tell us which WMS you use.

Scope my WMS integration

01

Discovery
In recorded discovery workshops we document your WMS locations, bins, receiving steps and which stock states count as sellable.
02

Stock model
We decide which WMS quantities feed Shopify available stock, so damaged or reserved units never show as sellable.
03

Develop
Orders go out and receipts and adjustments come back, with the new feed off until launch day.
04

Receiving tests
Test receipts, cycle counts and orders check that Shopify stock changes as soon as the WMS does.
05

Launch
Old stock imports stop first, then we follow the first live orders through pick, pack and tracking.

Frequently asked questions.

01

What is a WMS and how does it differ from an OMS?

02

Which WMS platforms does Shero integrate with Shopify?

03

Why do WMS integrations cause inventory discrepancies?

Inventory discrepancies happen when the WMS and Shopify count the same stock differently. The WMS tracks inventory at the bin level with reservations, movements, and holds that Shopify does not model. Shero maps the data model difference in discovery and sets up the sync to translate WMS inventory into accurate available-to-sell quantities in Shopify.
