·2 min read·View Oracle Docs

TL;DR Opening

When an order is canceled in NetSuite, the NetSuite Connector can automatically sync that cancellation to Shopify, keeping both systems aligned. This feature streamlines order management and eliminates potential discrepancies.

How Does Order Cancellation Sync Work?

In NetSuite, a canceled order can be one of two types:

  • An order pending approval that has been canceled.
  • An order that is pending fulfillment but has been closed.

To ensure cancellations are synced from NetSuite to Shopify, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to app.farapp.com.
  2. Select the Shopify connector and the appropriate account.
  3. Navigate to Settings > Orders.
  4. Click Advanced Options and check the box titled If An Order is Canceled in NetSuite, Cancel it in Shopify.
  5. By default, Shopify will automatically refund paid orders that are canceled; if you want to prevent this, check Prevent Shopify From Refunding Paid Orders When Cancelling.
  6. Click Save.

This allows you to manage how cancellations are handled in Shopify directly through your NetSuite Connector settings.

Who This Affects

  • Administrators: Responsible for configuring the NetSuite Connector and managing settings.
  • Order Management Teams: Rely on accurate order status updates across platforms.
  • E-commerce Managers: Need to maintain consistency in customer order experiences.

Key Takeaways

  • Syncing cancellations helps maintain consistent order management across NetSuite and Shopify.
  • Administrators can easily configure cancellation settings within the NetSuite Connector.
  • Preventing refunds on canceled orders ensures tighter financial control.
