How can I sync the inventory of my products between Shopify and Square?
Your product inventory is synced in both directions based on the connected Shopify and Square locations.
In your onboarding page once you connect your location between Shopify and Square, you have option to choose your primary source of inventory:
If you set your primary source as Shopify, your Shopify inventory will overwrite the inventory of the Square products for the connected location. Similarly, if you choose Square as the primary source of inventory, it will overwrite the Shopify product inventory for the connected location.
Once you complete your onboarding process and select the primary source, the inventory overwrite process will be initiated according to your configuration:
Please wait until the process is completed. This process will ensure that your inventory matches between Shopify and Square for the connected location, allowing you to manage your inventory more effectively.
Once the inventory sync process is completed, you will be notified that it has been successful. Now, you are all set to perform other actions.
