A careful Exact Online and Shopify build

Shopify Exact Online Integration, Connected, Tested and Documented

A Shopify Exact Online integration has an official route in Exact's own knowledge base: in Settings, Webshops, authorise Shopify and activate a sales channel to sync stock, orders and customers. Most connectors send orders to Exact and stock to Shopify, and vendors such as Combidesk, APIcenter and KoneX differ on direction and payouts. We choose, set up, test, from $690.

  • Official or third-party connector chosen
  • Orders, VAT, stock and customers mapped
  • Payment and payout reconciliation
  • Test log and a recorded handover

Our track record

Over 450 Stores Built Since 2015. Here Is What That Means for Your Exact Online Link.

Long experience with hundreds of Shopify stores shows up in small decisions: which id to use as the key, when to retry, which side wins a conflict. Those decisions make an accounting package integration steady and dependable.

Who this is for

Shopify Exact Online Integration: Who It Helps Most

Dutch and European sellers need orders to land in the books with correct VAT. These are the cases we build for.

You are a good fit if
  • Your orders come through Shopify
  • Exact Online is, or will be, in your toolset
  • You would rather pay once than by the hour
  • You can review a test run with us
  • Sellers booking in Exact Online

    Orders flow into Exact as sales.

  • Sellers managing stock in Exact

    Stock is pushed from Exact to Shopify.

  • Teams reconciling payouts

    Some features exclude Shopify Payments.

  • Cross-border sellers

    VAT rules must match the destination.

  • Teams comparing vendors

    Combidesk, APIcenter, KoneX and others differ.

  • Teams planning timelines

    KoneX says 2 to 3 weeks for a standard integration.

Problems solved

Shopify Exact Online Integration: Six Faults We Fix First

Accounting links fail on VAT and direction. These are the six faults we fix.

The problem

VAT wrong

The outcome

Invoices carry the wrong rate. We map tax per country.

The problem

Payouts unmatched

The outcome

Bank reconciliation fails. We group by payout.

The problem

Stock overwritten

The outcome

Counts drift. We set Exact as the source.

The problem

Duplicate customers

The outcome

Buyers repeat. We match first.

The problem

Refunds missing

The outcome

Credit notes are absent. We map refunds.

The problem

No handover

The outcome

Setup is unwritten, so the next change starts from guesswork. We write down the triggers, fields and tests.

The connection, mapped

What Happens When an order is paid: The Exact Online Flow

Every connection follows the same path. The store sends an event, we check it against what Exact Online already holds, the right record is written and the change is logged where your finance team can see it. The picture shows the pieces we connect and test before handover.

Process and timeline

Six Stages From Brief to Live Exact Online Sync

We follow the same six steps on every build, which is why the price can be fixed.

  1. 1

    Brief and scope

    We ask what you sell, how Exact Online is used and which events matter. A short review of your orders and invoices shows where the flow should start and what it must never do.

  2. 2

    Access and connection

    Access is narrow and approved by you, using an OAuth sign-in with accounting permissions. A live read proves the connection works before any build begins.

  3. 3

    Map and rule

    We map invoice number, tax code, account and amount, then agree which side wins each conflict and what blanks should do, in writing.

  4. 4

    Build in a copy

    A copy comes first: test data only, a visible plan and, where helpful, a recorded run.

  5. 5

    Test on real cases

    Cases tested: a taxed order, a partial refund and a multi-order payout, plus refunds and edits. Every result is compared with Shopify's own figures.

  6. 6

    Go live and hand over

    Once you approve, we switch the flow on, watch the first runs and hand over notes, a diagram and a short recorded tour.

Inside every project

Six Safeguards Built Into Every Exact Online Integration

None of these costs extra. They are simply how we work.

Counts compared, not assumed

After any load we compare counts with the source, so missing or doubled records are caught early.

A written definition of done

Done means the flow copes with a taxed order, a partial refund and a multi-order payout, and the results are written in the log.

Build in a copy, never live

Test data comes first. Live orders and invoices are left alone until you sign off.

Secrets kept in a vault

Keys and tokens live in a secure vault, not in notes, spreadsheets or chat.

Failures raise a flag

Failed runs notify a named person with the order and the cause, so silence cannot hide a problem.

Plain scope, two revision rounds

Price first, then two structured revision rounds for anything in scope, so no tweak becomes a surprise charge.

What is your monthly order volume?Required

Busier stores need extra queuing and a longer test.

Should data move one way or both ways?Required

Fields that both systems change need a written winner.

Is there data already inside Exact Online?Required

Existing records must be matched before the first sync.

How soon do you need it live?Required

Standard follows the schedule your other choices set. Pay to move up the queue and go live sooner.

Optional extrasOptional

Each one begins switched off. Turn on what you need, watch the total, switch it back off.

Why Store Design Expert

Why Hire Us to Connect Exact Online and Shopify

Most of this job is clicking, and you could do it. People hire us because the unglamorous parts, ids, timing and edge cases, decide whether the connection helps or hurts.

A price you can plan around

You see the cost and extra days for each choice in the calculator. Any Exact Online subscription is billed by Exact Online, so check what it charges today.

Tested on your real cases

We check against your own cases, like a taxed order, a partial refund and a multi-order payout.

A direct line to the builder

You talk to the person working on your flow, and questions about a trigger or field get a plain answer.

We live inside Shopify

Daily work on orders, refunds and metafields gives us Shopify depth that Exact Online menus alone do not.

Experience since 2015

A decade and more than 450 stores later, few integration quirks are new to us.

4.9+ from verified clients

The reviews here come from verified clients of Store Design Expert, so you can judge past projects before you pay.

What we need to get started

What We Need From You to Begin

The list is short. Most owners have everything ready in a day.

Approve a collaborator request

Already selling? Send the store address and accept the request we raise. You stay the owner, we see only what the role permits, and you can remove us at any time.

Starting from nothing? We build first

We can start in our own Partner account, set up the store and the Exact Online link, then transfer ownership to you. A Shopify plan is chosen at the end.

Or share a staff login

A staff login works if that is easier. We still recommend the collaborator route, since it can be revoked in one click and leaves no password in circulation.

Your Exact Online access

Either create the Exact Online account yourself and add us, or we open it with your email. You remain the owner, and we work through an OAuth sign-in with accounting permissions.

Sample records

Send two or three typical records from each side, or tell us where to find them. Real examples show us how your data is actually shaped.

A decision-maker

We need one person to approve the plan and the test, plus a rule for what wins when Exact Online and Shopify clash.

We never need your owner password or payment details. Access is limited, logged and removable at any time.

How long does the Exact Online integration take?

Single Workflow takes 3 to 6 working days, Core Workflows 6 to 10 and Full Integration 9 to 16. The usual variables are how much history you want loaded and how quickly you approve the test results. The Sooner and Fastest options shorten the schedule when a launch date is fixed.
