What the Katana–Stockhub integration does

Stockhub is a Dutch warehouse management system (WMS) for fulfilment companies and webshops. It manages inventory and locations, inbound goods, order picking, and shipping labels.

By connecting Katana with Stockhub, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Each Stockhub order becomes a Katana sales order that keeps updating as its status changes. Shipped packages are added as fulfillments with carrier and tracking details.

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

  • See stock levels at mapped locations: Stockhub stock numbers appear as read-only external inventory at each warehouse's mapped Katana location.

  • Turn inbound shipments into stock transfers: Each Stockhub inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that tracks its status and received quantities.

  • Map warehouses to locations: Each Stockhub warehouse syncs to its own dedicated Katana location.

  4. Once Stockhub has approved the connection, the configuration screen opens on the Location tab.

  5. Click Activate sync to start syncing data with Stockhub. Nothing syncs before you activate sync.

How your daily workflow looks

  1. Stockhub picks, packs, and ships your orders.

  2. Orders that reach the configured import-from status import into Katana as sales orders and keep updating through later status changes.

  3. Each shipped package becomes a Katana fulfillment with carrier and tracking details.

  4. Inbound shipments in Stockhub become Katana stock transfers and update as stock is received.

  5. Stockhub stock levels update as read-only external inventory at your mapped locations. Reconciliation creates stock adjustments for any differences.

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