Stocky Migration and Imported Records

Shopify’s published retirement date for Stocky was August 31, 2026. That date has passed. Do not plan a new migration around guaranteed access to the Stocky API; confirm what source records are still available before relying on an import. Shopify’s Stocky notice

Stockr retains its legacy importer and can display records previously imported. If your source data is inaccessible, contact Shopify about available recovery options and contact the Stockr team to review the records you already have.

Existing import scope

The Stocky importer was built to read supplier records and open purchase orders.

Supplier fields include company/contact details, address, account reference, and the source supplier ID in notes. Existing supplier names are skipped rather than duplicated. Newly imported suppliers use a temporary 7-day lead time that needs review.

Open PO imports preserve source identity and remaining order context. Rerunning against an available source refreshes the same archival PO rather than creating another record. Exact-SKU Shopify lookups can fill missing product details.

The importer does not bring over all closed/cancelled historical POs, create vendor mappings, or create item-level pricing automatically.

If source access is still available

Coordinate a connection check before depending on the importer. The legacy Settings → Setup → Stocky Import card asks for the Stocky API key and store name. Import suppliers first so POs can link to the correct records, then review the returned counts and errors.

Do not email the API key or attach it to a support request. Do not uninstall a source app as an attempted fix for data access.

Imported POs are archival

Imported POs are read-only. They cannot directly send email, receive inventory, change operational status, or record payment in Stockr.

Duplicate as Stockr PO creates a new local draft with the remaining unreceived quantities. Review the supplier’s existing commitment first: duplicating an archival record does not mean the supplier needs a new order.

Review after migration

1. Check supplier contacts, addresses, currency, and lead times.
2. Compare archival open quantities with the supplier’s current records.
3. Complete Shopify vendor mappings and item pricing.
4. Verify receiving locations and supplier part numbers.
5. Review and retain supported exports securely.

See supplier setup and the setup checklist. A legacy import is not a complete accounting archive or an automatic activation of live workflows.
