# Getting started with Muti-store sync

### 🚀 Getting started with Multi-store sync

Welcome to **Inventory Sync, Multi store TP (Multi-store mode)**, a simple way to sync data between **two or more Shopify stores**.

Multi-store sync is ideal when you:

* run multiple regional stores (US / EU / AU)
* separate B2C and B2B stores
* want one “main store” to manage products and inventory, and other stores to receive updates

***

### 🔑 Key Features

* **Connect stores**: Link one Source store to one or more Destination stores
* **Inventory** **sync**: Sync inventory across stores (One-way or Two-way)
* **Product** **sync**: Import new products and keep product data updated (title, images, variants, metafields, etc.)
* **Order sync**: When an order is created in a Destination store, it can be created in the Source store
* **Flexible sync options**: Choose what you want to sync (products, price, metafields, inventory, etc.)
* **CSV Import**: Import products/inventory using CSV when needed

***

Select the correct store role:

* &#x20;**Source store**: the “main” store where you manage products and inventory
* **Destination store**: the store that receives synced updates

#### 2) Configure app settings (both stores)

After installation, open **Settings** in each store and confirm your sync preferences.

**In the Source store**

* Decide what data you want to sync ( products, pages, collections,etc.)

**In the Destination store**

* Decide what product data you want to sync (example: title, images, price, metafields, etc.)

#### 3) Connect a Destination store to a Source store

Select the products you want to sync and complete the setting in the connection detail. [Lean more](https://docs.tipo.io/overview/general-steps-to-connect-stores)

#### 4. Monitor the Sync

Once you've set up the connection between the Source and Destination, check the sync logs regularly to verify that all products and information are being transferred as expected.
