For products in Uphance and Shopify that are "linked" the inventory levels in Shopify can be kept up-to-date with inventory levels in Uphance, allowing you to sell your excess inventory through your online store.

Uphance also monitors sales that are made on your Shopify store. Each time you make a sale on Shopify, the inventory level in Uphance will be automatically updated to reflect the deduction in stock. This makes Uphance one of the best fashion ERP solutions.

By default, when you connect your Shopify store to Uphance, it will be named "Shopify" by default. Now, this wouldn't be much of a problem if you intend to connect only one store. Otherwise, labelling all stores "Shopify" would become confusing.

Product quantities are of two broad types in Uphance: Available and Available from stock. Available refers to the products you have on hand (excluding those purchased by customers already) and those in transit.

Available from stock only takes account of products you have on hand. Mathematically speaking:

Available = Stock on hand + Stock in transit - Committed stock

Available from stock = Stock on hand - Committed stock

To ensure a smooth product syncing, you must ensure that the product fields you have in Uphance match what you have in Shopify. For example, for color field in Uphance, you have to match it by indicating the name you use for color field in Shopify.

Besides color, you can match several other product fields in Uphance to Shopify.
