Set Up Your Vendors for Shopify & VendorPayout

Vendors in VendorPayout

It is helpful to understand the relationship between the vendors added to Shopify and the vendors list in VendorPayout. Vendors are not added directly into VendorPayout. Instead, they are imported from the Vendor field in the Product Organization section of the products added in Shopify.

When VendorPayout imports order details, it creates a vendor based upon the Vendor field in Shopify. Then, it tracks the sale of any items associated with that vendor and calculates commissions and payouts.

Taxes & Shipping

VendorPayout calculates payouts based upon the value of the products sold, not the overall order total. Therefore, taxes and shipping amounts are not included in calculating payouts to your vendors.

Verify the Correct Vendors in Shopify

Prior to configuring your splits and commissions in VendorPayout, we suggest reviewing your products in Shopify to ensure that each product is associated with the correct vendor.

1.  Log in to your Shopify admin.
2. Click Products in the left-side menu.
3. Review the Vendor column for each product and update the vendor for each product as needed.

Bulk Edit

Did you know that you can bulk edit products in Shopify? You can See Shopify's Bulk Editing help article.

Once you have verified that each product is associated with the correct vendor, you are ready to configure splits and payouts in VendorPayout.
