ARCHITECTURE BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION
The business comes first. The technology follows.
Every project starts by mapping your business logic against the integration architecture. You know what fits and what needs work before you commit.
- Built for the Acumatica ecosystem
Built in partnership with Acumatica VARs and tested against real manufacturing and distribution use cases. - Celeste pre-qualifies the fit
Our platform-fit AI maps your business logic against the integration before you commit — what fits, what needs work, where the risk lives. - 10,000+ SKU scale
Designed for industrial-scale catalogues. Built for the complexity manufacturers actually operate at, not proof-of-concept conditions.
Where Acumatica commerce connectors break
We spent the spring of 2026 auditing native ERP-to-storefront connector paths used in Acumatica B2B ecommerce implementations. We documented 10 hard architectural limits, including no real-time credit check at checkout, no field-level conflict resolution, and a documented volume ceiling above which the vendor recommends switching off real-time sync.
This is the part that breaks. This is what we are fixing first.

Why direct integrations keep failing
The generic ecommerce connectors that ship with most platforms weren’t designed for manufacturers selling different prices to different buyers through workflows shaped by contracts, approvals, territories, inventory rules, and ERP data.
That mismatch rarely breaks the demo. It shows up the morning after go-live, when the connector has to support the way the business actually sells. Three gaps, in particular, tend to show up first:
PRICING
Pricing lives in the ERP
Customer-specific prices, contract rates, Customer Price Classes, and volume breaks all belong in Acumatica. When a connector can’t surface them cleanly, the storefront starts drifting from the source of truth. Your team ends up checking orders manually, maintaining side lists, and explaining why the online price didn’t match the invoice.
ACCOUNTS
Your accounts are not flat
Manufacturers rarely sell to simple one-buyer accounts. Branch locations, approval hierarchies, sales-rep-managed accounts, department budgets, and buyer-specific permissions all shape how customers buy. When the connector can’t represent that structure, buyers route around the storefront and call your team instead.
SYNC
Sync is where the shortcuts show
Pricing, inventory, order status, shipping rules, tax logic, and customer data all need to move reliably between systems. A connector that looks fine in a controlled demo can start to strain once real order volume, exceptions, and ERP rules enter the picture. That’s when oversells, mismatched invoices, delayed updates, and manual cleanup begin.
What this integration does differently
The 'before' column shows the workaround. The right side shows the result when Shopware and Acumatica are properly connected.
| The problem | What you got before | What this integration does |
|---|---|---|
| Customer-specific pricing | Flat price lists exported on a schedule. Customers see one price; their invoice shows another. | Acumatica Customer Price Classes, contract rates and tier breaks surfaced live per customer session. |
| Org structures & accounts | Single-level B2B accounts with flat permissions. Reps live outside the platform. | Multi-division hierarchies, branch locations, department budgets and buyer-specific access — modelled the way Acumatica already holds them. |
| Quote-to-order | No native quoting in the storefront. Quotes happen in email or a separate tool. | Shopware Digital Sales Rooms connected to Acumatica’s quoting engine. From inquiry to PO without a spreadsheet. |
| Inventory accuracy | Batch sync. Oversells happen. Customers get bad news after they’ve already paid. | Real-time / Live inventory from Acumatica, surfaced in real time. No batch jobs, no midnight surprises. |
| Credit limit at checkout | Limits enforced after the order lands in the ERP — sometimes after fulfillment has already started. | Credit limits and AR balance pulled from Acumatica and enforced at the cart before the order is placed. |
| Post-sync changes | Even routine changes — a cancellation, a partial return, an address fix — can break the sync once the order's in the ERP. Someone reconciles by hand. | Cancellations, partial returns and address corrections flow through cleanly — without breaking the sync or needing developer time. |
| Sales rep access | Reps work in email, spreadsheets and the ERP. Never in the storefront the customer uses. | Reps log in as any customer, see their exact catalogue and pricing, and build quotes on their behalf. Inside sales teams love this. |
| Catalogue scale | Variant limits and category-API transitions force trade-offs on real industrial catalogues. | Designed for 10,000+ SKU catalogues, configurable products and multiple units of measure. |
"We started by asking where the connector path falls apart. Where does pricing break? Where does inventory drift? Where do reps end up back in spreadsheets? Once you know that, the job is pretty clear. You build around those gaps instead of pretending the connector solved them."

Built by people who understand ERP commerce
Acro Commerce has 28 years of B2B commerce architecture behind it. The team building this integration ships ERP-connected commerce for manufacturers and distributors, not generic storefronts or white-labelled connectors. Every deployment starts the same way: understand how the business actually prices, approves, fulfills, and supports customers, then make the platform fit that reality.

Frequently asked questions
What does the Shopware + Acumatica native integration do?
It connects Shopware’s B2B-grade ecommerce platform directly to Acumatica Cloud ERP, surfacing real-time pricing, inventory, customer hierarchies and order data in the storefront — without batch jobs, manual price lists or middleware. It is being built by Acro Commerce, an Acumatica and Shopware partner with 28 years of B2B commerce architecture experience.
How is this different from the connector that ships with my ERP?
Generic ERP-to-storefront connectors were designed for retailers selling a single price to a single buyer. They typically lack native customer-specific pricing, multi-division account hierarchies, real-time credit checks and post-sync order editing — all of which are everyday requirements in B2B. The Shopware + Acumatica integration is architected around those requirements rather than retro-fitted to them.
Does it support customer-specific pricing and Customer Price Classes?
Yes. Customer-specific prices, contract rates, tier breaks and Acumatica Customer Price Classes are surfaced live per customer session in the storefront — not pushed on a schedule and not exported to a static price list.
Can it handle multi-division accounts and branch locations?
Yes. Multi-division companies, branch locations, approval hierarchies, department budgets and buyer-specific permissions are modelled the way Acumatica already holds them. The storefront reflects the same organisational structure your back office is running.
Does it enforce credit limits at checkout?
Yes. Credit limits and AR balance are pulled from Acumatica and enforced in the cart before the order is placed — so over-limit orders don’t reach fulfilment in the first place.
When does it launch and how do I get early access?
The integration is launching in 2026. Acumatica customers and VARs are notified first. Add your email at the top of the page to be on the early-access list.
Are you working with Acumatica VARs?
Yes. The integration is being built with the channel in mind and is designed to be sold, scoped and supported inside a VAR’s existing practice. VARs can request partner access from the strap at the top of the page.
Is there a Shopware connector for Acumatica?
Yes — a native integration between Shopware and Acumatica Cloud ERP is being built by Acro Commerce, an Acumatica and Shopware partner. It is launching in 2026. Acumatica customers and VARs can request early access from the form at the top of this page.
What is the difference between a native ERP integration and a middleware connector?
A middleware connector sits between the ERP and the ecommerce platform as a separate system that has to be configured, monitored and maintained. A native integration is built into the architecture of both systems, so pricing, inventory, customer hierarchies and order data move without an intermediate translation layer — and without an extra failure point. The Shopware + Acumatica integration is a native integration, not a middleware connector.
Who builds the Shopware + Acumatica integration?
Acro Commerce, an Acumatica and Shopware partner with 28 years of B2B commerce architecture experience. The integration is being built and signed off by our CTO, Shawn McCabe, and the team that has shipped ERP-connected commerce for manufacturers and distributors for almost three decades.
