Record types

Magento records to discuss.

These Magento record examples help scope a technical review. They are not a list of verified Stacksync operations.

Products
Distinguish the product ID, variant ID, SKU, and price-list entry; they are not interchangeable keys.
Configurable / variant products
Retain variant ID separately from parent-product ID and SKU; a product with several variants must keep several identities.
Categories
Identify this record type and the operation you need to review with Stacksync.
See 3 more record examples
Orders
Preserve both the order ID and stable line IDs. Allow one order to relate to several shipments or invoices.
Customers
Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient.
Inventory source items (MSI)
Identify stock by product/variant, location, and any lot or serial dimension; a product ID alone is insufficient.
Connection setup

Magento connection requirements.

Review Magento access and the operations your workflow needs with Stacksync. The vendor API reference below can help your administrator prepare for that discussion.

Prepare access and scope for the engineering review
  • Identify the Magento account, edition, environment, and business objects the integration must access.
  • Confirm a Stacksync connector or implementation path for Magento, including read/write support, authentication, and initial-load limits.

Integration design

Match records and fields for your Magento integration.

Assign product content, variants, prices, customer identity, stock, and order state to explicit owners. A catalog update and a fulfillment command need different permissions and acceptance tests.

Use these design questions to prepare a representative record and the business rules your integration must preserve.

Mapping checks by record type

Customers

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient.
Fields to consider
Source customer ID · Person/company classification · Legal entity or business unit · Destination identity reference
Related records to resolve first
Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.
Test before going live
Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

Products

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Distinguish the product ID, variant ID, SKU, and price-list entry; they are not interchangeable keys.
Fields to consider
Source product ID · SKU or variant reference · Description · Unit of measure · Price-list reference
Related records to resolve first
Resolve units, variants, categories, and applicable price lists before order lines.
Test before going live
Test two variants of one product, a changed SKU, and a price that applies to only one market or currency.

Configurable / variant products

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Retain variant ID separately from parent-product ID and SKU; a product with several variants must keep several identities.
Fields to consider
Source variant ID · Parent product reference · SKU · Option values · Unit or pricing reference
Related records to resolve first
Resolve the parent product and variant options before order or stock references.
Test before going live
Test two variants sharing a parent product and a changed SKU without losing order-line identity.

Orders

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Preserve both the order ID and stable line IDs. Allow one order to relate to several shipments or invoices.
Fields to consider
Source order ID · Customer reference · Line references and quantities · Order status · Currency
Related records to resolve first
Create or locate the customer and products first; resolve taxes, currency, and fulfillment references.
Test before going live
Test a multi-line order, a partial cancellation, and two partial shipments. Compare line totals as well as the header.

Inventory source items (MSI)

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Identify stock by product/variant, location, and any lot or serial dimension; a product ID alone is insufficient.
Fields to consider
Product reference · Location reference · Quantity type · Quantity · As-of time
Related records to resolve first
Resolve product, unit, warehouse/location, and lot/serial references.
Test before going live
Test the same SKU in two locations, a reservation, and an older snapshot arriving late.

Shipments

Confirm object support with Stacksync

Identity
Retain shipment/fulfillment and line IDs, order reference, and carrier context.
Fields to consider
Source shipment ID · Order/line references · Carrier · Tracking reference · Fulfillment status
Related records to resolve first
Resolve order lines, delivery address, carrier, and any partial-fulfillment references.
Test before going live
Test split shipments, multiple tracking references, partial returns, and a carrier status arriving out of order.

Setup and validation

Validate the Magento integration in four steps.

A multi-line purchase retains the correct variant and customer references, while repeated delivery leaves one intended order and fulfillment state.

View the four setup tests and expected results
  1. Confirm the intended Magento account and grant

    After confirming an implementation path, validate the selected access method with the intended account and environment. Check that the authorizing user can grant access to the selected objects; test reauthorization without changing the mapped record identity.

    Expected result: The connection reaches the intended account, and the integration owner can renew or revoke the grant through the agreed procedure.

  2. Test record matching for Customers

    Using the implementation established in the compatibility review, preserve the selected source ID and resolve the required references. Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact.

    Expected result: A multi-line purchase retains the correct variant and customer references, while repeated delivery leaves one intended order and fulfillment state.

  3. Test the operation your workflow needs

    Review one Magento record with a Stacksync engineer. Confirm how it should reach the other system, how often it must update, and whether your workflow needs reads, creates, or updates. Test those operations before expanding the integration.

    Expected result: The selected operation is confirmed, addresses the intended record, and exposes rejected values for repair.

  4. Test recovery and name the support owner

    For the confirmed implementation, interrupt a non-production transfer and restore access. Establish whether recovery uses the current source state or a stored historical event, and verify that repeated delivery preserves record identity.

    Expected result: The records have the expected current values, repeated delivery creates no duplicate business record, and your team knows who handles unresolved errors.

Use the production-readiness checklist to record test results, assign support owners, and agree on when to go live.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshoot your Magento integration.

Diagnose record matching, delayed changes, and rejected operations
A Magento record appears under the wrong destination record
Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient. Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions. Repair the ID relationship before repeating the operation.
The first load looks correct but later results differ
Confirm the selected Magento implementation’s change-detection method for Customers, Products and Configurable / variant products. Compare later changes with the original source rather than using a successful initial copy as evidence of ongoing capture.
One operation succeeds while another is rejected
Check the specific Magento object, field permissions, required references, and allowed operation. A successful read does not establish that a create, update, deletion, or business action is available.

Review retry, replay, and recovery behavior before repeating an operation that may already have succeeded.

FAQ

Magento connector FAQ

How should I plan an integration with Magento?

Assign product content, variants, prices, customer identity, stock, and order state to explicit owners. A catalog update and a fulfillment command need different permissions and acceptance tests. Confirm the connection and read/write operations with Stacksync. Start with one workflow, agree on which fields each system owns, then test initial data, later changes, and recovery before expanding.

Can the Magento connector write changes back?

Write-back support is not established for this connection. Review the Magento records and fields you need with a Stacksync engineer, then test the required operation with a representative record.

Which identifiers should I preserve for Magento data?

Determine whether each customer represents an individual, a company, or a business-unit relationship before matching it to a contact or organization. Retain the source customer ID and destination ID; names and email alone are insufficient.

Which related records should I load first for Magento?

Resolve person or company type, legal entity, business role, and any billing account before transactions.

How do I validate Magento changes after the initial load?

Test an individual buyer, a company buyer, and one company with multiple billing relationships. Do not merge these into a single generic contact. A multi-line purchase retains the correct variant and customer references, while repeated delivery leaves one intended order and fulfillment state.

What will we cover in a Magento integration demo?

Start with one workflow and a sample record from Customers, Products and Configurable / variant products. We can review how to identify the record, connect related data, set the update direction, and test recovery. Include the person who owns the source system and anyone who will maintain the integration; you do not need a finished requirements document.
