What the Katana–Logiwa integration does

Logiwa IO is a cloud-native warehouse management and fulfillment platform for high-volume, multichannel warehouses and third-party logistics providers.

By connecting Katana with Logiwa, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Logiwa orders become Katana sales orders, and shipped packages arrive as fulfillments with carrier and tracking details.

  • Send Katana sales orders to Logiwa for fulfillment: A sales order is pushed to Logiwa when it reaches the Ready for fulfillment status in Katana.

  • Cancel pushed orders from Katana: Cancelling a pushed Katana sales order also cancels the matching Logiwa order.

  • Import products by SKU: Logiwa products match existing Katana items by SKU, and SKU aliases bridge mismatched SKUs.

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

  • Track inbound shipments: Each Logiwa inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that updates as stock is received.

Before you start

  • An active Logiwa account.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

Connect Logiwa to Katana

  1. In Katana, open the Integrations page and find the Logiwa tile.

  4. Once Logiwa has approved the connection, the configuration screen opens on the Location tab. The integration status shows Connected with Sync inactive, and an Activate sync button appears in the header. Map each Logiwa warehouse to a Katana location, using Add to Katana to create a dedicated location.
