Shopify integration in Italy
Sync products, orders and shipments between Corp-Merch and Shopify for Italy — built around VAT 22% via SdI.
Architecture — Shopify as the storefront
Connect your Shopify store to Corp-Merch with the official app, scoped to read products and write orders. New orders in Shopify are mirrored to our fulfillment pipeline; shipments and tracking flow back. The SKU map is maintained in the dashboard with per-variant overrides so packs and bundles in Italy reconcile cleanly. VAT 22% is computed server-side using Shopify tax classes and SdI mapping, with the gross/net split visible before each push.
How to wire it up — Webhooks and the Shopify Admin API
Install the Corp-Merch app from the Shopify store, then authorise the scopes: read_products, read_orders, write_orders, write_fulfillments. We subscribe to orders/create, orders/paid and orders/cancelled. Outbound webhooks from Corp-Merch (order.shipped, return.received, invoice.issued) post back to your endpoint or directly to the order timeline as notes — including the SdI invoice id so AP in Italy can reconcile.
Operations and edge cases — Refunds, returns, custom items
Custom items (made-to-order merch) skip the Shopify inventory engine and go straight to our production queue; tracking back-references the original Shopify order. Refunds and returns are mirrored both ways so finance sees one source of truth. Idempotency keys derived from Shopify order ids prevent duplicates across retries. VAT 22% adjustments on partial refunds are recomputed and re-issued via SdI.
