When you are working on both platforms, Salesforce and Shopify, order management needs to be clearly defined. Not every order created in Salesforce is ready to be pushed to Shopify immediately. Some may still be in draft, under review, or pending activation.
In this blog, we will walk you through how Salesforce Shopify integration can be configured to sync orders based on their status category. A structured Shopify and Salesforce sync approach ensures that only relevant orders move between Salesforce and Shopify, keeping the process aligned and controlled.
Step 1: Log in to Salesforce and, in the App Launcher, search for “HIC Sync made easy”. Click on it.
Step 2: Go to “SME Pro Features”.
Step 3: Enable the “Order Sync – Based on Order Category (Salesforce → Shopify)” feature toggle button.
Step 4: Select the record type as Draft Order and click Next.
Step 5: Fill in the required details and click Save.
Step 6: In Order Products, click on “Add Products”.
Step 7: Select the “Pricebook” and click Save.
Step 8: Choose the product you want to add to the order and click Next.
Step 9: Enter the quantity and click Save.
Step 10: In Order Product, add the variant as well.
| Note: If you want to add a new status category, follow these steps: Setup → Object Manager → Order → Fields & Relationships → Status → Order Status Picklist Values → New → Enter Label, API Name, and Status Category → Select Record Type → Save. |
Step 11: Update the order status category from Draft to Activated and click Mark as Current Status.
Step 12: Click on the “Send to Shopify” button.
Step 13: After syncing, the Shopify ID and Store Name will be displayed in the order. Copy the Shopify ID.
Step 14: In Shopify, paste the Shopify ID in the search bar.
Step 15: Open the order and verify the status category.
Conclusion
Syncing orders by status category brings clarity to how data moves between systems. Instead of automatically transferring every order, you define when an order is ready to be shared.
With a properly configured setup, Salesforce and Shopify platforms stay aligned without unnecessary duplication or confusion. This approach supports a more controlled and consistent workflow as your business continues to scale.
