Connect Shopify Plus and Unit4

Connecting Shopify Plus and Unit4 could enable a company to transfer sales and customer data from its online store into its financial and resource planning system. This could support more accurate financial reporting, inventory management, and order processing by ensuring key information is available for analysis and operational decisions across both platforms.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Shopify Plus and Unit4 around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Shopify Plus and Unit4?

A company operating both Shopify Plus and Unit4 could benefit from enabling data exchange between the two systems. Such a connection could help reduce the need for manual data entry, which is often required when the systems are not linked. Without a way to synchronize information, there is a risk that records in Shopify Plus and Unit4 could diverge over time, resulting in inconsistencies. This could lead to business decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete data, especially if sales and financial figures are not kept up to date across both platforms. Common types of data that could be exchanged between an e-commerce platform like Shopify Plus and an enterprise resource planning system such as Unit4 include order details, inventory levels, customer information, and financial transactions. The actual data that can be exchanged would depend on what each system makes available through its API and would need to be determined for each specific situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what Shopify Plus and Unit4 make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
