The link

What travels across the link

Everything this connector moves between Shopify and King Software, and how often.

  1. Invoices

    to King Software automatically

    Every sale becomes an invoice in King Software with its own line items and the order number as reference, so you can trace it back without retyping.

  2. Contacts

    to King Software automatically

    The customer is recorded as a contact in King Software or reused by email, so no duplicate relation appears.

  3. VAT

    to King Software automatically

    The VAT rate is set per line, and foreign sales get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.

Both sides

What each side expects

Shopify and King Software do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

Shopify

Shopify thinks in orders with line items, a variant per line and a separate customer. Discounts, shipping and VAT sit as their own entries on the order rather than folded into the price.

King Software

An accounting package wants to know, per line, which ledger account and VAT rate apply, and wants the customer on file as a relation.

In four steps

Setting it up

  1. 01

    Request the connector

    Request the Shopify to King Software connector and get access. You hear from us within 24 hours.

  2. 02

    We agree what should travel

    Together we settle what should travel out of Shopify. An accounting package wants to know, per line, which ledger account and VAT rate apply, and wants the customer on file as a relation.

  3. 03

    Test and switch on

    You check the connector on a few test records before anything becomes final, then it runs by itself.

What you need

  • A Shopify store you own or where you may install apps. The connector runs as an app inside your admin, so you sign in through Shopify and need no separate account.
  • An administration you administer, plus clarity on the ledger account you want used.

Where it runs

Inside your Shopify admin, as an app. You sign in through Shopify, no separate account.

Common questions

Can you connect Shopify to King Software?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Shopify and King Software, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.

Which VAT rate do my sales get in King Software?

The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.

Are commission and fees booked separately in King Software?

Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in King Software, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in Shopify?

It comes across, so King Software matches what was actually settled and you correct nothing by hand.

What does connecting Shopify and King Software cost?

You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.

How often does Shopify sync with King Software?

That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.

What happens to a return or refund in King Software?

A return becomes a credit invoice in King Software for the amount actually refunded, not for the whole order, so nothing needs correcting afterwards.

What if Shopify or King Software is briefly unavailable?

Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
