Shopify orders will export to Shopify immediately after the customer reaches your Thank You page, or once the customer closes out the funnel. Rebill orders will also send to Shopify immediately. Beyond that, CheckoutChamp has a service that runs every 12 minutes to sends orders to Shopify. If a customer does not reach the Thank You page (including manual Order Entry orders) then CheckoutChamp holds the order for 20 minutes (from the order date) before the service can export the order. This means that when the service runs, it will only pick up Shopify orders that are older than 20 minutes. Once the order IS older than 20 minutes the service will send it. Since the service runs every 12 minutes, that means the orders who didn’t reach the Thank You page (or didn’t close the funnel) will export, on average, about 6.5 minutes AFTER the 20 minute hold. Upsell products that are purchased after the order has gone to Shopify will create a new order at Shopify immediately upon completion of the upsell. Shopify order export failed for ********** due to "Internal Server Error" This is a Shopify issue, the system will attempt to resend the orders until they go through. |

The Shopify Plugin contains a Synchronization Status which updates as the Shopify Sync progresses. These statuses can be found on the CRM side of your account, under Admin → Plugins → Data Sources → Shopify Plugin. |
Info |
---|
The following statuses will show in the Synchronization field: In Progress: Shopify sync has started and is currently in progress. At this point your shopify products should be importing into Konnektive. Completed: Shopify sync is completed. All Shopify products have been pulled into Konnektive and variant metafields have been updated in Shopify. Failed: This status will display if the Shopify sync fails for any reason. Most cases it is due to the merchant client app not granting Konnektive proper permissions to hit their API. Depending on how many products reside inside Shopify, it may take a little time for the sync to complete. |
Common Error Responses:
Moved Permanently - This typically occurs when the wrong storeURL is entered into the plugin. Make sure to use the default storeURL that was provided by Shopify when your account was first created.
When complete you can view the imported products and variants by clicking CRM at the top of Checkout Champ and then navigate to CRM→Products and CRM→Campaigns

Draw an arrow between the Shopify page and the Checkout page.
Add Upsell, Downsell and Thank You pages to the funnel as needed. Connect the pages with arrows and customize each page as needed.
