Click **Next Step** to continue. 11\. SKU IQ will now analyze your inventories from Clover & Shopify.  The inventory analysis will take a look at how many parent items you have and see if there are any matches between the two platforms. Matches are based on if the item(s) have the same title, SKU, or UPC (barcode). Uniques are items that exist only on one platform or the other - meaning they do not have a match Format Differences are inventory items that appear to match, but a variant from one platform or the other is not the same (or multiple variants are not the same). Product structures should match!! If you have format differences, you should fix them now so you won't have to later. Once you've finished fixing your inventory, if need be... 12\. Click **Next Step **to continue! The next page is a quick explanation of the Link Report - this is the tool we use to form the syncing relationships between your products - forming a link between the item on Shopify and the item on Clover. You can read up on [the Link Report here](https://knowledgebase.cloverskuiq.com/directory/linking?hsLang=en). When you're done reading, click **Next Step**. 13\. On this page, you'll be forming those links we just talked about. Don't worry, nothing will be linked automatically. There are a couple of options here. Picking Your Primary Platform: If you know for a fact that all of your inventory is correct on Clover or on Shopify, you can pick POS for Clover or eCom for Shopify. This will default *all* links to respect that platform. Use the radio buttons next to POS or eCom to pick.  Automatically Link Any Items With Matching: *Title* - any items that have exact matches alphanumerically in the title field between Clover & Shopify will be automatically linked *SKU* - any items that have exact matches alphanumerically in the SKU field between Clover & Shopify will be automatically linked *UPC (barcode) *- any items that have exact matches alphanumerically in the UPC/barcode field between Clover & Shopify will be automatically linked If you would like to search for specific products, you can use the search functionality, or you can use the filters to narrow down the number of items you'd like to start linking. Once you've selected an item or two - they'll show up in the Items to Link tab. Any matches that SKU IQ found during the inventory analysis will show up here. You will need to select at least 1 match to continue. 14\. Once you've picked the items you do want to link, click **Next Step.** 📒 **Note: **The overwrite of inventory quantities will NOT happen until you have finished the setup wizard and clicked "Start Syncing" at the very end. 15\. The next step is about order syncing. You have the option to send your Shopify orders in to Clover for record keeping purposes.
