What the Katana–Logiwa IO integration does

Logiwa IO is a cloud-based warehouse management and fulfillment platform for managing inventory, orders, warehouse operations, shipping, and fulfillment networks.

By connecting Katana with Logiwa IO, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Logiwa IO orders become Katana sales orders and keep updating through every later status change, with each shipped package recorded as a fulfillment with carrier and tracking.

  • Send Katana sales orders to Logiwa IO: a sales order is pushed to Logiwa IO for fulfillment when it reaches Ready for fulfillment, and cancelling it in Katana cancels the pushed order.

  • Import products by SKU: existing Katana products are matched by SKU, unknown SKUs create new products, and SKU aliases bridge mismatched SKUs.

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

  • Track inbound shipments as stock transfers: each Logiwa IO inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that updates as goods are received.

  • Map warehouses to locations: each Logiwa IO warehouse is linked to its own dedicated Katana location.

  2. Orders placed in Logiwa IO import into Katana as sales orders once they reach the configured import-from status.

  3. Logiwa IO picks, packs, and ships; each shipped package appears in Katana as a fulfillment with carrier and tracking.

  4. Inbound shipments to your Logiwa IO warehouses appear in Katana as stock transfers and update as goods are received.

  5. Logiwa IO stock levels update as read-only External inventory at your mapped locations.

  6. You plan purchasing and production in Katana using up-to-date orders and stock.
