Why teams connect Fishbowl Manufacturing and Shopware

Keep the storefront in step with the back office: Shopware and Fishbowl Manufacturing share products, inventory, and orders in real time, in both directions.

Shopware runs the storefront and takes the orders; Fishbowl Manufacturing owns the item master, the stock on hand, and the finance behind every transaction. The two overlap wherever the same products, customers, and sales matter to both — and when re-keying or an overnight batch is what connects them, the store oversells items it can't ship, quotes prices finance never set, or leaves buyers waiting on status that already changed.

Stacksync syncs Categories, Customers, Orders, Order Line Items in Shopware with Sales orders, Purchase orders, Manufacture orders, Bills of materials in Fishbowl Manufacturing field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — stock and pricing from Fishbowl Manufacturing, order and customer detail from Shopware — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Write tracking numbers and delivery state onto `order_delivery` from a 3PL or WMS so storefront order status reflects fulfillment.
  • 02 Consolidate orders and customers from multiple `sales_channel` storefronts into one Postgres database for cross-channel analysis.
  • 03 Mirror on-hand inventory by location into sales channels to prevent overselling.
  • 04 Keep customers and vendors aligned between Fishbowl and a CRM.

Common sync patterns

New orders reach the back office

An order captured in Shopware creates the matching record in Fishbowl Manufacturing with customer, line items, and totals, so fulfillment and invoicing start without re-entry.

One product catalog

Where both systems keep item records, SKUs, descriptions, and attributes stay aligned so the store and the back office describe the same product.

Fulfillment and shipment status close the loop

As orders are picked, shipped, or invoiced in Fishbowl Manufacturing, tracking and status flow back to Shopware so buyers see accurate updates.

How changes propagate between Fishbowl Manufacturing and Shopware

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Fishbowl Manufacturing Shopware Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Fishbowl Manufacturing for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling on last-modified fields.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Shopware through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Shopware Fishbowl Manufacturing Sub-second propagation

DetectionShopware notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. App-system webhooks on entity events (product.written, order.written, customer.written) deliver the changed record's primaryKey and updated field.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Fishbowl Manufacturing through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Shopware: No general throttle on Admin API entity endpoints; Shopware's RateLimiter guards only specific routes (login, oauth, password reset, guest order/contact) and is configurable on self-hosted stores.
