Frequently Asked Questions

What you need to know before migrating your store data from LiteCart to Shopware.

What happens to product variants when migrating to Shopware 6?

Existing variants become child products linked to their parent. If the source only supplies separate choices, Next-Cart creates combinations from them, up to 3,000 per product; no combinations are created above that count. This is a migration-processing limit, not a platform limit, and does not apply to variants already supplied. Check that the resulting choices, prices and stock match what you actually sell. This applies to the Shopware 6 connection, not Shopware 5 or custom product-configurator extensions.

The source workflow tries the default currency first, then uses the first nonzero price it finds in the configured currency list. The same fallback is applied to option-value prices. Review zero-priced products and multi-currency catalogs before migration so a fallback value is not mistaken for the intended default price.

The path looks up stock using a single option-group and value pair. When that match exists, it extracts the option's SKU, quantity, weight, and dimensions. Products whose stock is stored only for combined selections need a separate sample review; do not infer combination-level coverage from individual option stock.

Next-Cart copies the main image and gallery to Shopware 6 and uses the main image as the product cover. Keep the original files accessible during the transfer. After a test, check the cover, picture order and image links in the new store. Migrating the images does not recreate a gallery extension or the original storefront design.

No. The import process creates a new internal ID, while the displayed order number uses the incoming order number, falling back to the source order ID if no number is supplied. Review number conflicts in an existing destination store; retaining a displayed number is different from retaining the old database ID.

Shopware 6 uses separate payment and delivery mappings in this connection. The overall order state is derived from both, so a paid or shipped order can become completed, while refund, return, or cancellation states can make it cancelled. Check a paid-but-unshipped order and a refunded order before approving the mappings.

Available services depend on your migration path. Standard Migration lets you use the tool yourself with technical support. With Managed Migration, our technicians carry out the agreed migration. Custom Migration covers tailored requirements, with the migration carried out by you or our team as agreed. Data types must be supported by both connections; choosing expert handling does not by itself add unsupported data.

Where a self-service Demo Migration is available for your migration path, you can try it for free before purchasing. It transfers a small sample of supported data so you can check the result. Add-ons and custom work are not included in the self-service demo. For a file-based, custom or technician-assisted evaluation, contact us first to agree the test scope and any applicable cost.

Your data types and quantities determine the Entity Points total and the plan you need. The cost also depends on your chosen service, add-ons, and any custom work. Use the pricing calculator for an estimate; custom work is reviewed and quoted separately.

If you are migrating from a live store, it can normally keep taking orders while Next-Cart copies its data. The migration does not delete or change the source data. Plan the final update and the switch to the new store separately so recent orders and other changes are included. For file-based migrations, changes made after an export require a fresh export; an uploaded file is not a live connection to the store.

Yes. Your license allows repeat runs for the same store and migration path for 12 months from purchase, within your plan’s data limit. Continuing the previous migration can add eligible new records without importing the same mapped records again.

Changing records already migrated is separate: the paid Data Update add-on can update selected fields where your source, target version and those fields are supported. Keep the existing migration links and leave target-data clearing off. It does not automatically update every field or provide continuous synchronization.

Yes. While your license is valid, you can increase your plan’s data limit and upgrade to a higher service where it is available for your migration path. You can move from Standard Migration to Managed Migration or Custom Migration, or from Managed Migration to Custom Migration.

If you already use Custom Migration, you can add custom work after a review and quote. You pay only the additional amount, and your license expiry date stays the same.
