FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which Shopify POS integrator should we choose in Paris?
Macinwork has deployed Shopify POS for Paris fashion brands for several years with reputable references. We cover the full chain: tills, payment, network, ERP integration, ongoing store support. Based in Paris 3rd (Le Marais), we intervene on-site in the Paris region within 4 hours on critical incidents.
How much does a store IT opening cost?
For a typical 100-200 m² store with 2 tills, the infrastructure budget covers materials and installation (network, POS, payment, video, cabling), excluding ERP and recurring software licenses. Deployment time is 3 to 6 weeks. We recommend starting the infrastructure study 8 weeks ahead of the scheduled opening. Contact us for a detailed quote.
Is Shopify POS suitable for luxury brands?
Yes, for single- or multi-store setups up to 20-30 outlets. Shopify POS is reliable, stock and order sync with e-commerce is native, and the interface is accepted by sales teams. Luxury brands particularly benefit from the coherence between their online store and physical boutiques. Past 30 stores, other solutions become relevant (Lightspeed, Cegid Retail).
What is K3 Pebblestone / K3 Fashion?
A vertical Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central extension designed for fashion and textile. It adds the size/colour matrix, pre-pack (sized bundles shipped to stores), season handling (SS/FW), lookbooks, and native integration with wholesale EDI flows. It is the fashion-ERP reference in Europe.
How do we manage stock between e-commerce and physical stores?
Sync happens via Shopify + Business Central K3 as the single source of truth. Every sale (POS or online) decrements in real time. Inter-store transfers run through the ERP with full traceability. Annual or semi-annual physical inventory is orchestrated with dedicated scanners and automatically reconciled.
What are the specific risks in retail POS?
Three major risks: (1) peak-hour outage (Christmas, sales) that directly costs revenue; (2) card-data theft — hence PCI-DSS requirements on network and terminals; (3) guest Wi-Fi vulnerability that, if poorly segmented, can allow intrusion into the POS network. Each risk has a counter: redundancy, segmentation, encryption, supervision.
Can you handle international openings?
Yes, in coordination with local partners for physical cabling and local administrative requirements (telco licenses, payment, taxation). Our clients regularly open in New York, London, Milan. The technical part (Shopify POS, ERP, supervision) is centralised at Macinwork, the field is subcontracted to selected integrators.
How long does support last after opening?
Our standard contracts include ongoing support with no fixed term — as long as you operate the store, we maintain the infrastructure. The first 3 months after opening benefit from reinforced support (weekly on-site presence, extended on-call) to smooth any post-launch adjustments.
