Migration Guide

How to migrate from Stocky.

Stocky APIs stopped working on 31 August 2026. Use this migration checklist to preserve available records, capture supplier details separately, confirm the supported import scope and prepare your team for the replacement inventory workflow.

1. Choose Your Operating Workflow

List the purchasing, receiving, transfers and counting tasks your team needs. Review Shopify built-in inventory first, then compare a dedicated platform using those same tasks and your location structure.

2. Preserve Available Records

Export the Stocky reports and historical records you need while read-only access is available. Old purchase orders and stocktakes do not move automatically into Shopify, and Shopify says suppliers cannot be exported from Stocky, so capture supplier details separately.

3. Confirm the Supported Import Scope

Share sample exports and the records you want to retain with Invastokk. Agree the supported files, columns, identifiers and target structure before scheduling the one-off manual import. Keep the original exports even when data is imported.

4. Reconcile and Prepare the Team

Check the agreed imported records and opening stock by location before adopting the new workflow. Review outstanding purchase orders and transfers, confirm who orders, receives and counts, and train the team on the replacement process.

What to preserve

This is a retention checklist, not a promise that every item can be imported. Confirm the available exports and the agreed migration fields before relying on an import.

Products and locations

Keep the identifiers, variants, barcodes, location assignments and stock position needed to map the new operation.

Suppliers

Capture supplier details separately because Shopify states suppliers cannot be exported from Stocky.

Purchase orders

Export the historical records you need, including statuses, received quantities and supplier context where available.

Stocktakes and transfers

Preserve completed count, adjustment and movement history needed for operational reference.

Reports and adjustments

Export the Stocky reports and adjustment history your team uses for audit and analysis.

Workflow decisions

Document who orders, receives, transfers, counts and reconciles stock before configuring the replacement workflow.

The Invastokk Manual Importer

Stocky APIs stopped working on 31 August 2026, so an ongoing Stocky sync is not a migration option. Invastokk describes a one-off manual import route for supported exports. Review sample files with the team to confirm the exact scope and limitations.

  • We import supported Stocky exports into Invastokk through a controlled manual process.
  • Preserved records and separately collected supplier details are mapped into the agreed Invastokk structure.
  • This is a one-off transition route to preserve operational continuity—not a live sync.
  • Once complete, Invastokk connects directly to Shopify as your live, long-term operations hub.

Stocky migration FAQs

Does Stocky data move into Shopify automatically?

No. Shopify states that historical Stocky purchase orders and stocktakes do not move automatically into Shopify, and suppliers cannot be exported from Stocky.

How long can I export Stocky data after the deadline?

Shopify states that merchants have read-only export access for at least 90 days after 31 August 2026. That is a minimum period, not a promise of indefinite access. Check access in your account and preserve the records you need now.

Can Shopify import my historical Stocky purchase orders?

Shopify says historical purchase orders cannot be imported. Native CSV upload adds product line items to a new draft purchase order; it does not import historical statuses, received quantities or supplier links.

Which exports can Invastokk import?

Confirm the supported files and columns with Invastokk using sample exports before scheduling migration. The manual route is not a guarantee that every historical field or record will transfer. Retain the original files for reference.

Is the Invastokk Stocky importer an ongoing sync?

No. It is a one-off manual migration route. After migration, Invastokk connects directly to Shopify for ongoing live operations.
