Stock Item Entity

This topic provides reference information about the standard filtering and field mapping used for the Stock Item entity during the synchronization between MYOB Acumatica and Shopify. The topic also contains information about the merging of duplicate records during the synchronization.

Stock Item Filtering

A stock item is skipped if it is a matrix item—that is, if a template is specified for the item in the Template ID box on the General tab of the Stock Items (IN202500) form. Matrix items are synchronized as part of the synchronization of template items.

Merging of Duplicates

During the export of stock items from MYOB Acumatica, a stock item is merged with an existing product in BigCommerce if its ID in MYOB Acumatica—that is, the value in the Inventory ID box on the Stock Items form—matches the SKU of the product in Shopify.
