Integration of Shoptet and POHODA

Shoptet and POHODA integration: orders, invoices and stock without retyping
Orders from Shoptet are written into POHODA without retyping, and the order status and stock go back to the e-shop. We connect through the Shoptet API, its exports or a ready-made connector, and to POHODA through XML and mServer – depending on your plan and what is cheaper for you to run.
Sound familiar?
Shoptet sells, POHODA does the accounting. When they do not pass data to each other on their own, a person carries it between them.
-
“We retype orders from Shoptet into POHODA by hand.”
-
“We retype orders into POHODA and then look for why the stock does not match.”
-
“Every morning I go through the orders and switch statuses by hand based on what came into the bank account.”
-
“We sold goods on the e-shop that left the store that morning.”
-
“The connector we bought cannot handle our cost centers or number series.”
-
“Every now and then the integration goes down and we only find out from a customer.”
Shoptet ⇄ POHODA
What flows between the systems
| What | Direction | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Orders | Shoptet → POHODA | With Premium right after creation (webhook), without Premium from the order export at a set interval. Into POHODA as a received order via XML. |
| Invoices | Shoptet → POHODA | Only one system issues the invoice. We decide in advance which one and from which number series, so it is not created twice. |
| Order status | POHODA → Shoptet | For example completed or shipped, so the customer sees the current status. Writing to Shoptet goes through the API (Premium) or an add-on. |
| Stock | POHODA → Shoptet | The stock level is valid in POHODA; Shoptet only takes it over. E-shop sales are written into POHODA as documents. |
| Products | POHODA → Shoptet | Optional, when you manage products in POHODA. |
What we build to connect Shoptet with POHODA
We build the e-shop to accounting integration in parts. You do not have to take everything; we start with what hurts most.
Orders into POHODA
Every order from Shoptet is written into POHODA only once, as soon as it is created. We accept only messages that really came from your Shoptet.
Invoices and number series
The invoice is created in one system and according to your rules: number series, cost centers, payment methods. These are rules an off-the-shelf connector may not cover.
Statuses and stock back to Shoptet
Stock and status synchronization: the order status and stock go back from POHODA to the e-shop. The stock level is valid in one system, so the e-shop does not sell goods that are no longer there.
POHODA on your server
We connect desktop POHODA securely, without a port open to the internet. After a POHODA update we make sure the connection is running again.
Extending a ready-made connector
When a ready-made connector handles the basics, we add only what it cannot do: your own rules, exceptions and a report.
Monitoring and exception report
Every run is logged. A transfer that fails does not get lost, and you see orders that failed the checks in an overview. The goal is for you to know about an error before your customer does.
What the Shoptet and POHODA interfaces can do
Both sides have an interface. They differ by Shoptet plan and by where and in which edition your POHODA runs.
Shoptet Premium
Private REST API and webhooks, for example on a new order. The access token can be limited to only the areas the integration needs.
Shoptet without Premium
Order export with a permanent URL, add-ons from the Shoptet add-on store and ready-made connectors.
POHODA
XML import of orders, invoices, addresses and stock, and XML export of stock and documents. mServer accepts XML requests online.
POHODA E1
Automatic launch of XML communication at set intervals, for example downloading orders from the e-shop or updating stock.
Do you have a different e-shop or accounting program? You can find the interfaces of other systems on the System integration page.
Ready-made connectors
Before we build anything custom, check whether a ready-made solution is enough for you.
| Connector | What it does and where it stops |
|---|---|
| Dativery | Ready-made scenarios for Shoptet and POHODA with public pricing: invoice transfer from Shoptet, integration of orders, products and stock levels, order statuses from POHODA back to Shoptet. |
| Base.com + partner connector | An order management system for multiple sales channels. It connects Shoptet through the system XML, and partner connectors lead into POHODA (e.g. BHIT, Dativery, NextCom, Shopsync). Makes sense mainly when you also sell on marketplaces. |
When a ready-made connector is enough
- You sell only through Shoptet, have one warehouse and standard invoices.
- You only need to transfer invoices into POHODA and order statuses back to the e-shop.
- You do not need your own number series, cost centers or special rules for payments and shipping.
- You are fine handling errors in the connector’s interface, without your own exception report.
When you do not need us
We do not sell connectors or licenses. When an off-the-shelf solution is enough, we tell you.
- A ready-made connector covers what you need
- There are ready-made scenarios for Shoptet and POHODA with public pricing, for example from Dativery. When they are enough, we recommend them and build nothing.
- You have POHODA E1
- Automatic tasks in E1 can run set scenarios at intervals, such as downloading orders from the e-shop. Before we start building, we check whether that is enough for you.
- You have a few orders a day
- An integration may not pay off for you. We will say so plainly and show you how to shorten the manual step.
- You are looking for a new e-shop or accounting program
- We do not sell licenses. We will help you choose and transfer the data, but you buy the system directly from the vendor.
