What the Katana–Teapplix integration does

Teapplix ActionShip is a web-based platform for shipping, order management, inventory, and accounting automation. It imports orders from marketplaces and shopping carts and supports fulfillment and shipping-label creation.

By connecting Katana with Teapplix, you can:

  • Import orders as sales orders: Each Teapplix order becomes a Katana sales order that keeps updating as its status changes, with fulfillments and tracking added as packages ship.

  • Import products by SKU: Products match existing Katana products by SKU, unknown SKUs are created automatically, and SKU aliases bridge mismatched SKUs.

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

  • Map warehouses to locations: Each Teapplix warehouse is mapped to its own dedicated Katana location, and only mapped warehouses sync.

Before you start

  • An active Teapplix account.

  • Your Teapplix API token, which is the only field the Katana connection form asks for.

  • A Katana account with permission to manage integrations.

  2. Teapplix fulfills and ships the orders.

  3. Each shipped package lands in Katana as a fulfillment with carrier and tracking.

  4. Order status changes and cancellations in Teapplix update the matching Katana sales orders.

  5. Teapplix stock levels update as read-only external inventory at your mapped Katana locations.

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