Omnium integration for Shopify

The Omnium integration makes Omnium the order and inventory system for Shopify: orders go in, stock per location comes back, and products can be published from Omnium. EDI orders from Coop, XXL and Sport Holding land in Omnium and flow to Tripletex with GLN and cash discount. We set up Omnium's Shopify connector and build the EDI flow in Make.com.

What it is

Omnium is a Norwegian order management system for wholesalers and chains with several channels. The Shopify connector is Omnium's own, and needs market, warehouse and location ID set up correctly to run. The EDI part is our Make.com flow, which enriches the order with customer data and creates the order, invoice and delivery address in Tripletex.

Why it matters

Wholesalers selling both to chains and in their own web store need one place for orders and stock. Without an OMS, stock lives in three places and EDI orders are keyed in by hand.

Frequently asked questions

Why do products get stuck in the queue in Omnium?

+

Usually the warehouse is missing a location ID, the store ID has the wrong casing, or the global connector that wakes the sync job does not exist. We have the checklist.

Can Omnium replace Shopify's inventory?

+

Yes. Omnium becomes the source of truth for stock, and Shopify shows what Omnium says. That is the point.

What about EDI from chains other than Coop, XXL and Sport Holding?

+

Each new chain needs a customer in the accounts, an organisation number in the mapping, GLN and cash discount. It is a known job.

Is this Make.com or a connector?

+

Both. The Shopify link is Omnium's connector. The EDI flow to the accounts is Make.com in your account.
