What the Katana–Stord integration does

Stord is a logistics and supply-chain platform that combines fulfillment, freight, warehousing, and software. Its Stord One Commerce platform handles inventory tracking, order processing, and connections to sales channels and warehouses.

By connecting Katana with Stord, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Stord orders become Katana sales orders, and each shipped package adds a fulfillment with carrier and tracking details.

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

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

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

  • Turn inbound shipments into stock transfers: Each Stord inbound shipment becomes a Katana stock transfer that tracks receiving.

Before you start

  • An active Stord account with access to the Stord One Console.

  • The credentials the Katana connection form asks for: your API Key, Stord Organization ID, and Network ID. If you don't have the Organization ID or Network ID, contact your Stord representative.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

  2. Stord picks, packs, and ships the order.

  3. Orders and their status updates land in Katana as sales orders, with a fulfillment, carrier, and tracking number for each shipped package.

  4. Stord inbound shipments appear in Katana as stock transfers, and their received quantities update as Stord receives the stock.

  5. Stock levels from Stord update as read-only external inventory at your mapped locations.

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