GUMU™ Sage X3–Shopify Integration synchronizes orders from Shopify to Sage X3 in real time, allowing organizations to automate order processing and have consistent order data between the two applications.
In this blog we will discuss a feature that comes with the Order process. When integrating Shopify with Sage X3, it is important to have an easy way to identify orders across both systems for easy order management and reporting.
The GUMU™ Shopify-Sage X3 integration will automatically import the Shopify Order Number to the Sage X3 Sales Order standard Reference field when the order is synced from Shopify to Sage X3.
Easy cross-system order recognition
For example, if the Shopify order number is #1001, GUMU™ will fill 1001 in the Reference field of the corresponding Sage X3 Sales Order.
This means that there is a direct relationship between the order made in Shopify and the one that has been created in Sage X3, making it easier for the sales user to locate the order without having to look through various fields or systems.
Advantages
- Simple Order Identification: Easy identification of the corresponding Shopify order from a Sage X3 Sales Order.
- Better Reporting: Filter reports in Sage X3 through the use of the standard Reference field.
- Traceability Improvement: Follow the original Shopify Order Number throughout the order process.
- Less Manual Work: The user does not have to enter manually the Shopify Order Number in Sage X3.
How It Works
It is a simple process as follows:
Shopify Order → GUMU™ → Sage X3 Sales Order → Ref Field
In the case when the Order gets transferred from Shopify to Sage X3 through GUMU™, then the reference field in the Sales Order will get populated automatically with the Order number from Shopify.
This seemingly small, yet useful update increases transparency and helps sales, operations, and finance departments monitor orders transfer between Shopify and Sage X3.


Conclusion:
The Order Number of Shopify to Sage X3 Reference Field feature increases the traceability and reporting of orders without disrupting the process of synchronization automatically. With GUMU™, companies can keep a clear connection between their orders in Shopify and the related Sales Orders in Sage X3.
