Shopify

Connect Shopify to Moselle to sync sales, inventory, and product data for demand forecasting and inventory planning.

Overview

The Shopify integration imports your sales history, current inventory levels, and product catalog into Moselle. Once connected, data syncs automatically on a daily basis.


Connect Shopify

  1. Log in to Moselle and click your avatar in the top right corner

  2. Select Settings from the dropdown menu

  3. Click the Integrations tab

  4. Select Shopify and click Connect

  5. You will be redirected to Shopify to install the Moselle app

  6. Click Install on the Moselle app page

  7. Enter your Shopify login credentials

Once connected, your sales and inventory begin importing and appear on the Catalog page.

Multiple Stores

You can connect multiple Shopify stores to a single Moselle account. Repeat the connection process for each store.


Data Sync Details

Sync Frequency β€” Shopify data syncs daily overnight (EST).

Sales Attribution β€” By default, Moselle uses gross sales. Your administrator can switch to net sales if needed. See Revenue Calculation Methods below for details.

SKU Matching β€” Shopify listings automatically link to Moselle items when SKUs match exactly. Non-matching SKUs require manual linking.


App Permissions & Legacy Installs

If you installed the Moselle app on Shopify before mid-2025, your integration might lack the specific permissions required for newer inventory features. This can cause inventory syncs to fail even if sales data is updating correctly.

The Fix: To resolve this, you must approve the updated permissions:

  1. Go to Settings > Integrations in Moselle.

  2. Locate the Shopify integration and click Connect again.

  3. Shopify will show a screen with the updated permissions. Click Install App or Update App to grant the new inventory scopes required.

Revenue Calculation Methods

Quick Answer: Moselle supports two Shopify revenue methods β€” gross (default, before discounts) and net (after discounts). Your administrator can switch between them at any time.

Gross Revenue (Default)

Gross revenue is the total sales amount before any discounts are applied. This is the default setting for all Shopify stores connected to Moselle.

Example: A customer buys 2 items at $50 each with a 20% discount code. Gross revenue is $100 (the full price before the discount).

This method is ideal if you want to track total potential revenue before promotional activity.

Net Revenue

Net revenue is the sales amount after all discounts are subtracted, including:

  • Line-level discounts (automatic discounts, product-specific promotions)

  • Order-level discounts (checkout promo codes)

Example: Using the same scenario above, net revenue is $80 (after the $20 discount).

Why It Matters

The revenue method you choose affects:

  • Historical sales data displayed across Moselle

  • Forecast revenue projections used for planning

  • Comparison with Shopify reports β€” match Moselle to Shopify's "Gross Sales" or "Net Sales" metrics

How to Change the Revenue Method

  1. Contact your Moselle administrator or support team

  2. Specify which Shopify store(s) need the change

  3. After configuration, a backfill recalculates your historical sales data automatically

Important

Do not delete Shopify listings. Deleted listings lose their variant IDs, which breaks historical sales and inventory data. If listings are deleted, contact Moselle support to repair the affected data.
