Pipe17 picks the warehouse or 3PL for each Rithum order by your routing rules, with the marketplace's ship-by date carried on the order.
Pipe17 posts each shipment's tracking number to Rithum, and the marketplace that sold the order sees it shipped.
Pipe17 sends Rithum your warehouse and 3PL stock minus a buffer you set per sales channel, so marketplaces sell only what your storefront can spare.

Pipe17 works alongside Rithum, which stays where you list products, manage feeds, and sell on Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and other marketplaces. Once an order exists, Pipe17 routes it to a warehouse or 3PL, holds one stock count behind Rithum and your other channels, and posts tracking and quantities to Rithum. Rithum stays where you sell, and Pipe17 runs the order operations for every order Rithum brings in.
Pipe17's Rithum integration connects Rithum's marketplace product, formerly ChannelAdvisor: the feed, listing, and order tool for Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and other marketplaces. Rithum's DSCO dropship platform runs on a separate connector, covered on Pipe17's DSCO connector page. Rithum OrderStream programs are EDI programs, which Pipe17 connects through its managed EDI offering.
The Pipe17 Rithum (ChannelAdvisor) 3PL integration routes Rithum orders to ShipBob, Radial, ShipMonk, or any other 3PL on the Pipe17 Network, with no custom build between Rithum and the warehouse. Pipe17 sends each order to the 3PL your routing rules pick, the 3PL's shipment confirmations return to Rithum with tracking, and its stock counts feed the quantities Rithum shows each marketplace.
Yes, the Pipe17 Rithum (ChannelAdvisor) integration syncs every order it routes to NetSuite or another ERP connected to Pipe17, once the warehouse or 3PL has shipped it. Each marketplace sale lands as one record carrying the order, its fulfillment, and any cancellation, and inventory held in the ERP feeds the counts Rithum shows. Finance reconciles marketplace sales without rekeying from Rithum reports.
Pipe17's Shopify Rithum integration keeps inventory accurate with one stock count per SKU per location, which both channels sell from. A unit sold on your Shopify store lowers the quantity Pipe17 pushes to Rithum, and a marketplace sale lowers what Shopify shows. A buffer per channel protects a share for Shopify. BigCommerce or any other connected channel sells from that count too, and Pipe17 tracks inventory across all of them.
Pipe17 pulls paid, unshipped orders from the marketplaces Rithum manages for the distribution centers you choose. Orders assigned to your own warehouses and 3PLs come in; orders a marketplace fulfills for you, through Fulfillment by Amazon or a similar program, stay with the marketplace. Each order line carries the Pipe17 location that stands for its Rithum distribution center, ready for your routing rules.
Yes, a cancellation in Pipe17 cancels the whole order in Rithum, and a marketplace cancellation on an unshipped order cancels it in Pipe17 as well. Both directions run on the same connection, with no second tool or manual update in either system. Cancellations arrive the same way orders do, through the Rithum connection you already authorized, with no separate setup.
Pipe17 works with Rithum (ChannelAdvisor) as the order management system (OMS) behind it: Pipe17 routes each marketplace order from Rithum to a warehouse, store, or 3PL, runs one inventory pool for Rithum and your other channels, and syncs the result to your ERP. Rithum keeps listing and selling; Pipe17 takes each order from payment to tracking number. AI agents reach those orders through the Pipe17 MCP Server.
Yes, Pipe17 pulls Rithum's marketplace catalog, including parent and child variants and bundles with their components, and pushes new or changed SKUs from Pipe17 to Rithum with titles, descriptions, images, dimensions, UPCs, prices, and cost. Limit either flow to the SKUs you want, and a listing that changes in Rithum reaches your warehouses and other channels through Pipe17.
