Products
When Product sync is enabled, the app syncs Shopify products to e-conomic products, typically one e-conomic product per variant SKU.
Enable product sync
Sync settings → Product → Rule sync → Enable product sync.
The app reacts when Shopify products are created or updated.
Rules
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Require SKU | Skip variants without a SKU when enabled |
| Require title | Skip variants without a product title when enabled |
| Only active products | Skip draft/archived products when enabled |
| When product exists in e-conomic | Update, Skip, or Warn (log only) |
| Archive maps to barred | Map Shopify archived status to barred in e-conomic when applicable |
Default mappings (required for create)
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Default product group | Required to create new products in e-conomic |
| Default unit | Optional |
| Default departmental distribution | Optional |
The wizard may auto-pick the lowest product group number from e-conomic when you connect.
Field mappings
Common mappings:
| Shopify | e-conomic |
|---|---|
| SKU | Product number |
| Title | Product name |
| Description | Description |
| Price | Sales price |
| Compare at price | Recommended price |
| Barcode | Barcode |
| Cost | Cost price |
Use Basic or Advanced field mapping UI and preview sample data before saving.
SKU resolution
The app prefers the variant SKU from Shopify. If missing, it may try another Shopify product source when the app has permission.
Orders: missing products
Even with product sync off, order sync can optionally create missing products before posting an invoice or sales order, using line item SKU and title from the order. That requires:
- Default product group set
- Setting Ensure missing products enabled under Order rules
See Orders.
Log behavior
Product events log variant counts: synced, skipped, failed, plus reasons (missing SKU, draft product, etc.).
Tips
- Enforce SKUs in Shopify before enabling product sync.
- Choose Skip for “when product exists” if e-conomic is the master for existing article master data.
- Use Update if Shopify should always drive name and price in e-conomic.
