What actually needs to sync, and which direction
Most integrations move stock, pricing, and order data between Shopware and an ERP, product data and enrichment from a PIM, or customer records with a CRM. The first scoping question is always which system is the source of truth for each field — that decision shapes everything after it.
Payment and shipping integrations are usually narrower in scope — a specific provider's API where no Store plugin exists or the existing plugin doesn't support a feature you need, like a non-standard rate calculation or split payment.
