If you run an inventory management system alongside dropship suppliers and multiple sales channels, the weak link is usually the hand-offs between them. Spark Shipping connects the pieces: supplier feeds flow in automatically (API, EDI, FTP, or CSV), stock and pricing stay synced across your channels, and orders route to the right vendor without manual entry. It works alongside platforms like SkuVault, Brightpearl, Zentail, SellerActive, and ChannelAdvisor rather than replacing them — Spark Shipping handles the vendor-facing automation your inventory system doesn't, so the quantities in your system match what suppliers can actually ship.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Spark Shipping work with an inventory management platform?

Spark Shipping connects supplier and fulfillment data to the rest of your ecommerce stack. It can pull supported inventory and product data from suppliers, route orders, and return tracking. An inventory management platform can continue managing the stock and warehouse functions assigned to it. The exact data flow is defined during implementation. 

Which inventory management platforms can I connect to Spark Shipping?

Spark Shipping's directory currently lists Lightspeed, DEAR Systems, SkuVault, and ShipHero. It also lists Ordoro and Fishbowl Inventory. CIN7 is marked as coming soon. Product names and integration status can change, so confirm the current connection and required workflow before implementation. Spark Shipping can also connect to any IMS via a custom integration. 

Does Spark Shipping replace my inventory management system?

No. Spark Shipping focuses on supplier data, dropship inventory, order routing, and tracking automation. Your existing system can remain responsible for owned stock, purchasing, warehouse operations, or accounting-related inventory. The right division of responsibilities depends on your current platform and workflow. 

Which system should be the source of truth for inventory?

Your inventory platform can remain the source of truth for stock you own, and send this data to Spark Shipping. Spark Shipping can then process availability from your own stock as well as dropship suppliers.  

Can I manage owned inventory and dropship supplier inventory together?

Yes. Your warehouse can be connected as a supplier alongside external dropship vendors. Spark Shipping can pull inventory from the configured sources and route orders according to your rules. This allows stocked products, supplier-fulfilled products, and products available from both sources to operate in the same ecommerce workflow. 

Can Spark Shipping work with multiple warehouses or stock locations?

Yes, when the connected systems provide the required location and inventory data. Spark Shipping can treat configured warehouses and suppliers as separate fulfillment sources. Routing can use availability, priority, and cost. It can also consider the destination or warehouse location. The available options depend on the connection and its data. 

How often does inventory data sync between systems?

The cadence depends on each connection. API-based integrations may update more frequently than scheduled file feeds. CSV, XML, FTP, or email-based files are processed when they are supplied. Spark Shipping can support frequent updates, but the practical timing still depends on the source system and configuration. 

Can Spark Shipping connect an inventory platform that is not listed?

Yes, provided the platform can exchange the data needed for the planned workflow. Spark Shipping supports API and EDI connections. It can also work with FTP, SFTP, and HTTP. File-based options include CSV and XML. The team must review the documentation, sample data, and direction of each data flow before confirming the integration.
