About this Product
Business Central ships with a single-store Shopify connector, but ecommerce teams running two, five or a dozen storefronts quickly hit its limits: one Shopify shop per company, brittle item mapping, and no real control over how orders, stock and customers flow back and forth. This is a build-to-order AL extension that ECOSIRE designs around your exact store topology, then installs and operates on your environment.
We build it as a per-tenant extension (not a one-click AppSource listing), so the data model, field mappings and sync rules match your catalog and fulfillment process rather than a generic template. Under the hood it uses table and page extensions to hold per-store configuration and external ID mappings, event subscribers on Sales Order, Item and Inventory events to push changes the moment they happen, and the Business Central REST/OData v4 API plus Shopify's Admin GraphQL API for transport. Long-running and scheduled reconciliations run through the Job Queue so nothing blocks a user, and every integration entry point is locked behind dedicated permission sets.
What you get is genuine bi-directional, near-real-time sync: orders and customers flow in from each Shopify store, fulfillment and tracking flow back out, item and price changes propagate, and inventory levels stay reconciled across every storefront — with multi-store and multi-currency support and per-store conflict rules so two shops never fight over the same SKU.
Because ECOSIRE builds, installs and supports it, you also get the parts DIY projects skip: sandbox validation, a documented mapping, error-queue dashboards, and a real human to call when Shopify changes an API version. Optional Dataverse / Power Platform surfacing lets ops teams monitor sync health from Power BI or a Power App. Honest lead time and ongoing maintenance are covered below.
What you get
- A per-tenant Business Central AL extension (.app) built for your tenant, installed in sandbox then production
- Configured connections for each of your Shopify stores with credentials managed securely on your environment
- A documented field-and-entity mapping covering items, variants, prices, customers, orders and inventory
- Dedicated permission sets and an integration user/service account configured with least privilege
- Job Queue entries set up for scheduled reconciliation and automatic retry of failed syncs
- Sync-status and error-queue pages (optionally surfaced to Dataverse/Power BI) for ongoing monitoring
- Sandbox validation pass plus a production cutover runbook and rollback notes
- Handover documentation and a post-go-live support window with agreed update/maintenance terms
Who this is for
Ecommerce Operations Manager
Runs multiple Shopify storefronts on top of Business Central and needs orders, stock and fulfillment to stay in lockstep without manual re-keying or overselling across stores.
Business Central Administrator / IT Lead
Owns the BC tenant and wants a clean, supportable per-tenant extension with proper permission sets and Job Queue scheduling — not a pile of unmanaged custom objects.
Finance & Inventory Controller
Cares that every Shopify order lands as a correctly-currencied sales order and that inventory valuation and quantities reconcile across stores and BC locations.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shopify Multi-Store Connector for Business Central
How long does delivery take, and is this an instant AppSource download?
No — this is build-to-order, not an instant AppSource install. ECOSIRE designs the extension around your store topology and catalog, then installs it as a per-tenant extension. Typical lead time is about one working week depending on the number of Shopify stores, the complexity of your item/variant mapping and how many currencies and locations are involved. We start in your sandbox, validate the mapping with you, and only then cut over to production.
What does ongoing support and updates look like after go-live?
After go-live you get an agreed support window for bug fixes and tuning. Because Shopify periodically versions its Admin API and Microsoft ships Business Central updates twice a year, we offer a maintenance arrangement to keep the extension compatible across those cycles, monitor the error/retry queue, and apply mapping changes as your catalog evolves. You always own the deployed extension on your tenant; we operate and maintain it under the terms we agree.
How is this different from the native Shopify connector in Business Central?
The native connector is single-store oriented and gives you limited control over mapping and conflict handling. This extension is purpose-built for multiple Shopify stores with per-store credentials, currencies and conflict rules, a dedicated mapping table, event-driven near-real-time push, and a monitored error queue — tailored to your process rather than a generic default.
Where does the extension run and how does it connect to Shopify?
It runs inside your Business Central environment as a per-tenant AL extension. It uses the Business Central REST/OData v4 API and AL event subscribers internally, and connects outward to each store via the Shopify Admin GraphQL API, with webhooks ingesting inbound events such as new orders. Scheduled reconciliation and retries run through the Job Queue.
Can sync health be monitored in Power BI or the Power Platform?
Yes. The extension exposes sync-status and error-queue data on Business Central pages, and we can optionally surface that into Dataverse so you can build a Power BI sync-health dashboard or a lightweight Power Apps monitor for your ops team. This is configured as part of the build if you need it.
