Installation
To complete the full installation, you need both a Shopify account and a Sellsy account.
Install the Shopify app
Click the link above, choosing the store on which to install the connector.
Install from the Shopify marketplaceOnce installed, the app will be visible from your Shopify admin under "Apps and sales channels" > "Sellsy".
Install Sellsy
Once the Shopify app is installed, you will be automatically redirected to this step.
It is strongly recommended that the user configuring this step be an administrator of the Sellsy account, so that they automatically have all the permissions required by the connector.
Otherwise, please make sure the collaborator's privilege profile has at least the following permissions:
- Clients / Client visibility level: All
- Clients / Create clients
- Contacts / Contact visibility level: All
- Contacts / Create contacts
- Invoicing / Access to the Invoicing module
- Invoicing / Invoice visibility level: All
- Invoicing / Create invoices
- Invoicing / Validate invoices
- Invoicing / Credit note visibility level: All
- Invoicing / Create credit notes
- Invoicing / Validate credit notes
- Invoicing / Purchase order visibility level: All
- Invoicing / Create purchase orders
- Invoicing / Allow creating purchase orders for a client with an overdue invoice
- Invoicing / Template visibility level: All
- Invoicing / Allow adding simple lines to documents
- Catalog / Create products and services
- Catalog / Edit products and services
- Catalog / Manage variants
Click "Connect Sellsy" and accept the permissions.
Once the Sellsy app is installed, you will be redirected automatically to this step.
Pay attention to the start date of your flows (by default, the date the connector is configured).
We recommend generating "drafts" rather than finalized invoices during the testing phase.
You can configure:
- The document owner (by default, the user who configured Sellsy)
- A document template
- A pricing category
Missing a setting you consider essential? Please contact us by email at contact@orderinvoicer.com.
You must enable at least one flow to move on to the next step.
Activate your subscription
To allow the workflows to run properly, you need to activate your trial period.
Choose the right "Standard" or "Pro" subscription on Shopify.
Once the trial ends, the connector's billing will be integrated directly into your Shopify store invoice.
You can change your plan at any time from the app's configuration on Shopify:
"Apps and sales channels" > "Sellsy" > "Plan" > "Manage".
Check the conversion of your orders
Conversions are performed instantly (a few minutes' wait at most).
