Why teams connect Pigment and Shopware

Turn every Shopware order into clean revenue: Pigment and Shopware keep customers, orders, and payment status aligned in real time, in both directions.

Shopware runs the storefront — the catalog, the orders, and the buyers placing them. Pigment records the money behind those orders — invoices, revenue, payments, and the ledger the business closes on. The overlap is every customer, order, and product both sides need to agree on, and when that overlap is bridged by CSV export or an overnight batch, finance reconciles against stale numbers while the store quotes prices or stock the books no longer recognize.

Stacksync syncs Applications, Metrics, Dimension lists, Tables in Pigment with Sales Channels, Media, Products, Categories in Shopware field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — an order's totals from Shopware, its paid-or-overdue state from Pigment — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by the rules you set.

The result is one shared record of who bought what and whether it has been paid, so the storefront, support, and the finance team all read from the same current data instead of re-keying it between systems.

Common use cases

  • 01 Keep dimension lists such as departments and cost centers consistent with master data in the ERP.
  • 02 Sync headcount and compensation data from an HRIS into workforce planning models.
  • 03 Write tracking numbers and delivery state onto `order_delivery` from a 3PL or WMS so storefront order status reflects fulfillment.
  • 04 Consolidate orders and customers from multiple `sales_channel` storefronts into one Postgres database for cross-channel analysis.

Common sync patterns

Where Shopware originates orders: sales flow into the books

A new or updated order in Shopware creates or updates the matching invoice or revenue record in Pigment, so billing and reporting start without re-entry.

Where Pigment is the money system of record: payment status on the order

Paid, overdue, and refunded state from Pigment lands on the order or account in Shopware, so the store and support see what has actually been collected.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or buyer records, an edit in either propagates to the other, ending duplicate accounts and mismatched contact details.

How changes propagate between Pigment 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.

Pigment Shopware Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Pigment for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. No change feed.

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

Shopware Pigment 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.

  • Pigment: Subject to the platform's API rate limits.
  • 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.
