Benefits of the Sage x Shippingbo connector
Save time on every order
Shippingbo reduces data re-entry, intermediary files and manual checks between Sage, your logistics operation and your other tools. Your teams move faster with less friction.
Make stock data more reliable for better execution
Shippingbo helps maintain a cleaner view of logistics stock and synchronise the relevant data according to your organisation. You limit discrepancies that cause stockouts, delays and unnecessary trade-offs.
Run your B2B, B2C and marketplace flows with greater confidence
As channels multiply, Shippingbo helps structure execution around clearer rules. You maintain a more organised operation even with several order flows.
Handle the workload more effectively as activity accelerates
Volume peaks, new channels, new sites and exports: Shippingbo helps you maintain clean execution without multiplying in-house tools, custom developments and workarounds.
What is synchronised between Sage and Shippingbo
Synchronization is automatic. Some behaviors depend on order status and enabled options
| Data | Direction | Trigger and/or frequency |
|---|---|---|
| B2C orders | Sage Shippingbo | Automatically retrieved from the sales source |
| Orders to send to Sage / ERP | Shippingbo Sage | At “To prepare” or “Shipped” status |
| B2B orders entered in Sage / ERP | Sage Shippingbo | On entry or through a regular batch |
| Product references / logistics data | Sage Shippingbo | On creation, update or by batch |
| Stock available for sale | Shippingbo Sage | According to the defined frequency |
| Physical stock | Shippingbo Sage | According to the defined frequency |
| Physical stock changes | Shippingbo Sage | Webhook or export |
| Expected receipts to create | Sage Shippingbo | According to the defined process |
| Quantities actually received | Shippingbo Sage | When the expected receipt is closed |
| Returns | Sage Shippingbo | On creation and then on update |
Connection steps: Connect Sage to Shippingbo in just a few steps
-
1.Define the project scope upfront with an integrator
Define the flows to enable: B2C orders, B2B orders, catalogue, stock, inbound receipts and returns.
-
2.Define the master system for each data type
Catalogue, stock, orders and shipments: avoid having the ERP and Shippingbo modify the same data at the same time.
-
3.The integrator develops the connector
Development by an integrator with in-depth knowledge of Shippingbo flows
-
4.Test and go live with key business scenarios
Cancellation, partial shipment, returns, replenishment, B2B orders and multiple locations: validate the use cases that really matter before deployment.
The limitations of Sage without Shippingbo
Without Shippingbo
- Flow reliability: Scattered data, more manual checks and more discrepancies
- Team time: Data re-entry, shared files, checks and reprocessing
- Usable stock data: Incomplete visibility across tools and channels
- B2B / B2C / marketplace management: Flows duplicated depending on the use case
- Shipping, tracking and returns: Separate tools, fragmented tracking and greater customer service workload
- Capacity to absorb peaks: Processes become strained as soon as volumes rise
With Shippingbo
- Better-structured flows between Sage, the warehouse and logistics operations
- Less manual handling and more time to manage operations
- Better-synchronised logistics stock for cleaner execution
- Clearer execution depending on the order type
- Smoother execution across shipping, tracking and returns
- A more robust organisation to handle the workload with greater confidence
Advanced use cases: compatibility is validated before activation
When your organisation goes beyond the standard use case, Shippingbo helps structure flows to avoid workarounds, poorly managed exceptions and wasted time.

Omnichannel flows: B2B, B2C, marketplaces
Your business does not operate through a single channel. Website, marketplaces and B2B flows coexist with different constraints, and Sage alone is not always enough to keep execution clear. Shippingbo helps structure execution by order type to avoid processes being managed twice.
Multiple warehouses and order allocation
You ship from several sites or providers. As soon as stock falls or priorities change, making allocation decisions manually quickly becomes difficult. Shippingbo helps structure order routing according to your rules to limit manual decisions.
Available stock and physical stock
Across Sage, the OMS and WMS, stock can quickly become difficult to read and make reliable. Shippingbo helps distinguish the right stock levels and synchronise the right data in the right place.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Sage to Shippingbo?
The connection starts with straightforward scoping: define the master system for each data type, the flows required and the appropriate exchange method. Key scenarios are then tested before go-live.
What data can be synchronised between Sage and Shippingbo?
Depending on your configuration: orders, order data sent to Sage, stock, stock changes, receipts, returns and shipping information.
How can stock reliability be improved between Sage, e-commerce and logistics?
The recommended principle is clear: Shippingbo becomes the master system for logistics stock and synchronises the relevant data at the correct account and flow level.
Can Shippingbo support a multi-warehouse setup with Sage?
Yes. Shippingbo helps structure execution and order routing according to your business rules and logistics organisation.
Can receipts be managed between Sage and Shippingbo?
Yes. Expected receipts can be created and tracked in Shippingbo, with the quantities actually received sent back according to the selected flow.
Can returns be integrated into a cleaner flow?
Yes. Sage can create a return in the OMS and then retrieve processing statuses according to the configuration in place.
