Product Sync
If you have ticked the Article Sync, when a new product is created in Shopify, it will automatically be created in Fortnox also. When you change the name or other attributes of a product, it will be synced into Fortnox also. By DEFAULT the app will do the mapping between a Shopify product and Fortnox article using the Shopify_SKU and Fortnox_Item_Id.
Synced attributes for product from Shopify to Fortnox :
- Product name

If you already have articles inside your Fortnox account, then you have to manually create similar product in Shopify and connect it to the existing Fortnox article by copying the fortnox article id and save it as the SKU on the specific product variant in Shopify. This way the product in Shopify is linked to the article in Fortnox. This mapping is necessary for correct invoicing amount and stock sync. Beta notice: When article sync is enabled, any unlinked Shopify product might create duplicate in Fortnox when and order is synced or refunded. If this happens you have to verify the mapping values.

Different setting options in App.

Stock Sync
This is a multishop feature and Fortnox is considered as base. It means the stock value from Fortnox will be updated into Shopify when this feature is run.
Stock is synced from Fortnox to Shopify. You can select whether you want to sync the amount from “In Stock” or “Available” attribute of the article. You update the stock value by clicking on the “sync” button. As this is a basic manual feature in current version of the app, you have to trigger this one or more times a day manually. The update happens in the background and it might take several minutes depending on how many products you have, if you have for instance 100 products, it will take few minutes. So if you click on the sync button be patience and do not exit the app as this will terminate the sync process. Once stock is completed, you will get report on screen with the result.
The “Note” attribute of the article in fortnox must be filled with correct value for proper operation of this stock sync feature. If this was not filled automatically, please contact us.
