How to Migrate from Shopify Stocky to PODesk in 5 Minutes (2026 Guide)

With Shopify Stocky officially discontinued, merchants must migrate their supplier profiles, SKU costs, and purchase order workflows. Here is the step-by-step checklist to migrate to PODesk in 5 minutes with zero lost data.

Phase 1: Export Data from Stocky

Before uninstalling Stocky or losing access to historical data, export your records into clean CSV files:

  • Supplier List: Go to Stocky ➔ Suppliers ➔ Export CSV. This exports vendor emails, phone numbers, and payment terms.
  • Supplier SKU Mappings: Export variant cost tables and vendor-specific SKU codes.
  • Historical Purchase Orders: Export open and completed PO history for financial audits.

Phase 2: Install & Import into PODesk

1. Install PODesk from Shopify App Store

Visit PODesk Install Page. PODesk securely reads your live inventory and catalog via Shopify's GraphQL API in under 60 seconds.

2. Upload Suppliers & SKU Mappings via Smart CSV Import

In PODesk, click Import CSV. Drag and drop your Stocky export. PODesk's column auto-detection matches your headers automatically.

3. Generate Your First 1-Click Purchase Order

Create a test purchase order, check the professional branded PDF export, and test receiving inventory with real-time Shopify synchronization.
