Customer Location Entity
This topic provides reference information about the standard filtering and field mapping used for the Customer Location entity during the synchronization between MYOB Advanced and Shopify.
Customer Location Filtering
Filters are applied during the export of customer locations to Shopify. A customer location is skipped if any of the following is true:
- The customer location is a location of the guest customer. The guest customer is excluded from synchronization so its locations are not synchronized.
- The customer to which the customer location refers has not been synchronized.
During the import of customer locations to MYOB Advanced, the customer location is skipped if the corresponding customer has not been synchronized.
