Shopify orders land in Epicor ready to pick while Epicor publishes stock from the plant that ships online demand, so the storefront quotes availability the warehouse can actually honor.
Manufacturers and distributors selling on Shopify while running Epicor often key web orders into the ERP by hand and update storefront stock from memory. Without a live link, Shopify orders reach Epicor late or with errors, stock in Epicor never matches the storefront, and customers order items that a specific plant or warehouse has already run out of. Connecting Shopify and Epicor through Alumio automates order capture and stock updates between them, so the storefront shows what Epicor actually holds and each sale lands in the ERP ready to fulfill.

Every Shopify order lands in Epicor with its lines, customer, and shipping detail, so the warehouse picks from accurate data and no one retypes web orders into the ERP by hand.
Epicor inventory flows to Shopify automatically, so the storefront shows genuine availability and shoppers stop ordering items a plant or warehouse has already depleted in the ERP.
Because orders and stock move between Shopify and Epicor without rekeying, the errors that come from manual entry drop away and fewer orders are picked short, wrong, or late.
With Shopify and Epicor linked through one hub, adding a marketplace or a second store later reuses the same ERP setup rather than starting a fresh integration from nothing.
When a customer checks out on Shopify, Alumio creates the order in Epicor with line items, customer, and shipping details, so production and the warehouse work it from the ERP without rekeying the web order by hand.
When stock changes at a given Epicor plant or warehouse, Alumio updates the matching Shopify products within moments, so the storefront reflects availability at the location that ships online orders, not a figure that oversells.
When Epicor marks an order shipped with a tracking number, Alumio passes it to Shopify so the order updates and the customer is notified, keeping buyers informed without staff copying tracking from Epicor by hand.
Alumio sits between sales channels and fulfillment systems as a governed integration backbone. Orders are routed, transformed, and validated, while status updates return to every channel.
Authenticate your systems using Alumio's pre-built connectors. Choose from 200+ connector packages in the marketplace, plus unlimited custom integrations.
Define how data fields map between systems in a visual interface. Adjust formats, enrich records, and apply business logic, no custom code required.
Configure flows to run in real time on events, on a schedule, or both. Reduce manual data entry and let Alumio handle movement and transformation between systems.
Once your first integration is live, adding your ERP, PIM, WMS, or CRM connects to the same hub. Existing flows keep running. No rebuilding from scratch.
Yes. Manufacturers connecting Shopify to Epicor commonly add a PIM or a shipping carrier next, so product content and dispatch stop being manual. Alumio runs those alongside the existing Epicor connection and reuses its plant and item mapping, so a new system reads the same ERP data without a second round of part-number matching.
Yes. Alumio creates each Shopify order in Epicor and returns stock from the plant or warehouse that fulfills online orders. Because the source location is part of the configuration, the storefront reflects availability at the site that actually ships rather than a company-wide figure inflated by stock committed to production elsewhere.
No. What normally requires development is matching Shopify SKUs to Epicor part numbers and building the Service Connect workflows around them. Alumio keeps that mapping in configuration, so a new part or a changed SKU is handled in the interface and the connection survives an Epicor update without someone rebuilding a custom workflow.
Yes. Alumio can pull availability from the specific Epicor warehouse or plant that fulfills online orders, so Shopify shows stock for the location that actually ships rather than a combined figure across every site. You configure which Epicor locations feed the storefront, so a manufacturer running several plants can present accurate online availability without overselling stock that sits at a site the webshop never ships from.
Alumio spots a Shopify order that fails to reach Epicor before the warehouse ever notices it is missing, so a sale cannot quietly go unfulfilled. Each message is tracked live and logged with the order or stock update it carried, letting you see whether Epicor accepted it and where it stopped, such as a part number the ERP did not recognize. Failed messages retry automatically where configured, and anything still unresolved raises an alert with full detail rather than being dropped.
