PPE ONLINE: Faster Sage 300 - Shopify Sync for Orders, Products, and Stock with APPSeCONNECT
How PPE ONLINE reduced manual work and kept Sage 300 and Shopify aligned using APPSeCONNECT’s Sage 300 + Shopify integration.
The Story of PPE ONLINE
PPE ONLINE is an OEM manufacturer of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). They are known for high-quality and affordable safety products. The company handles product development, manufacturing, testing, and delivery in-house. This approach helps them ensure product consistency and reliable support. PPE ONLINE is expanding its distribution across the MENA region and entering developing markets. Their clear goal is to become a one-stop shop for complete PPE needs and to promote safer workplaces with dependable products and responsive support.
Keeping Sage 300 and Shopify Aligned as Online Orders Grew
PPE ONLINE increased its online sales on Shopify while using Sage 300 to manage core business operations. As order volume grew, the team needed product details, stock levels, and sales orders to match between both systems at all times. Manual coordination between Shopify and Sage 300 required extra effort, caused delays, and made visibility more difficult during busy periods.
The Challenges
As PPE ONLINE’s Shopify transactions increased, three issues emerged:
1. Manual Sales Order Entry
Before APPSeCONNECT: Shopify orders required manual entry into Sage 300. This caused delays and extra work when details were missed.
Outcome:
- Slower order processing during busy times
- Higher risk of mismatched order details between Shopify and Sage 300
- Increased workload for teams handling daily orders
“Order entry took too much time during peak days. We wanted orders to reach Sage 300 automatically.”
2. Product Information Mismatch Across Systems
Before APPSeCONNECT: Updates to products in one system did not always show up quickly in the other. Keeping listings uniform required constant checking.
Outcome:
- Product details appear differently across Shopify and Sage 300
- More time spent reviewing SKUs, descriptions, and updates
- More internal follow-ups to confirm the latest product version
“We needed the same product data in both places, without constant manual checking.”
3. Stock Visibility Gaps
Before APPSeCONNECT: Stock updates required manual effort, making it difficult to keep Shopify inventory aligned with Sage 300.
Outcome:
- Stock numbers on Shopify lagging behind actual availability
- Teams spending time updating inventory instead of focusing on growth tasks
- Harder decision-making during fast-moving sales periods
“Inventory updates needed to be automatic so the store reflects current availability.”
The Solution: APPSeCONNECT’s Sage 300 + Shopify Integration
APPSeCONNECT connected Sage 300 and Shopify and automated the daily sync that PPE ONLINE needed. The setup focused on three areas that matter most for fast-moving eCommerce operations: orders, product data, and inventory.
1. Automated Sales Order Sync (Shopify → Sage 300)
After APPSeCONNECT: Orders placed on Shopify get created in Sage 300 automatically.
Outcome:
- Faster order handoff to the back office team
- Fewer manual steps and less rework
- A cleaner order flow during high-volume periods
“Orders now move into Sage 300 on their own. Our team saves time every day.”
2. Product Data Sync (Sage 300 ↔ Shopify)
After APPSeCONNECT: Product information stays consistent across both systems, so teams can update products with less manual coordination.
Outcome:
- Product listings remain consistent across platforms
- Less time spent reconciling SKUs and product details
- Fewer internal checks to confirm the latest updates
“Product updates stay consistent across systems, which reduces back-and-forth.”
3. Inventory Sync for Accurate Stock Visibility
After APPSeCONNECT: Inventory updates run automatically, keeping Shopify stock aligned with Sage 300.
Outcome:
- More accurate stock visibility for online buyers
- Less manual inventory handling for internal teams
- Better control during spikes in order volume
“Stock levels stay aligned, so our store reflects current availability.”
The Implementation Journey
APPSeCONNECT worked with PPE ONLINE to connect Shopify and Sage 300 and configure the required sync flows. The focus stayed on keeping daily operations stable: orders moving into Sage 300 without delay, product data matching across systems, and inventory updates running automatically.
