What the Katana–Greenmark Logistics integration does

Greenmark Logistics is a Dutch logistics and fulfilment provider offering e-fulfilment, transport services, B2B logistics and temporary storage. It runs its own web-based warehouse management system, Green WMS.

By connecting Katana with Greenmark Logistics, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Greenmark Logistics orders become Katana sales orders, with fulfillments, carrier and tracking added as packages ship.

  • Send sales orders for fulfillment: Katana sales orders are pushed to Greenmark Logistics when they reach the Ready for fulfillment status.

  • Import products by SKU: products match existing Katana items by SKU, and SKU aliases bridge SKUs that differ between the two systems.

  • See stock levels at mapped locations: Greenmark Logistics stock appears as read-only external inventory at each warehouse's mapped Katana location.

  • Turn inbound shipments into stock transfers: each inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that tracks its receiving progress.

  • Map warehouses to locations: each Greenmark Logistics warehouse links to its own dedicated Katana location.

Before you start

  • An active Greenmark Logistics account with access to the Green WMS portal.

  • The details the Katana connection form asks for: your Api Key, created in the Green WMS portal, and the correct Sandbox Environment setting. Leave the checkbox unchecked for a production account.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

How your daily workflow looks

  1. When a Katana sales order reaches Ready for fulfillment, Katana sends it to Greenmark Logistics as an outbound order.

  2. Greenmark Logistics picks, packs and ships the order.

  3. Orders and their status changes land in Katana as sales orders. Each shipped package becomes a fulfillment with carrier and tracking.

  4. Inbound shipments to Greenmark Logistics become Katana stock transfers that update as stock is received.

  5. Stock levels from Greenmark Logistics show as external inventory at your mapped locations. Reconciliation creates stock adjustments for any differences.

  6. You plan production and purchasing in Katana using the up-to-date figures.
