Updating to Shopware 6.7 comes with important technical changes. To ensure a smooth update of your Pickware extensions, please be sure to follow the steps in our update guide.

You update Shopware one major version at a time: from the last 6.4 version to 6.5, from the last 6.5 version to 6.6, and from Shopware 6.6.10.8 to 6.7. There are separate articles for the other steps: What do I need to consider when updating to Shopware 6.5? and What do I need to consider when updating to Shopware 6.6?.

Update guide

Attention: During the Shopware update, your shop's API is usually not reachable. During this time, the POS App cannot create orders and displays errors. Therefore, schedule the update outside your opening hours.

1. Create a backup

Before you install updates, you should always create a backup of your data.

2. Deactivate Pickware extensions

As part of the Shopware update, all extensions must be deactivated. A corresponding prompt appears during the update process, which lets you deactivate all extensions at once.

To avoid error messages, deactivate the Pickware extensions manually beforehand. If you use the individual extensions Pickware POS, Pickware WMS and Pickware ERP Pro, deactivate these first so that you can then deactivate Pickware ERP.
If you use Pickware ERP, WMS & POS instead of the individual extensions, you can deactivate it directly.

You can deactivate the extensions under Extensions → My extensions using the checkboxes on the left.

3. Update Shopware

Now you can start the Shopware Updater.

3.1. Update to the last 6.6 version

An update to Shopware 6.7 is only possible if the last patch version of 6.6 is installed beforehand:

→ Shopware 6.6.10.8

If you are still using an older 6.6 version, perform this update first.

3.2. Update to Shopware 6.7

Once your shop has been updated to 6.6.10.8, you can start the Updater again and update to Shopware 6.7. The Updater guides you through the process.

If you have questions, please also refer to the following guides in the Shopware documentation:

Below you will find additional notes on updating to Shopware 6.7.

Note: Compatibility

Since Pickware WMS and Pickware POS are obtained via the Pickware Account, Shopware cannot check these extensions for compatibility. The Updater therefore shows you a corresponding notice.

You can find all information on the compatibility of WMS and POS with the Shopware versions in the Pickware Account.

Note: Deactivate extensions

During the update, a prompt for deactivating your extensions also appears.
Be sure to select the option Deactivate all extensions.

If you did not deactivate WMS, POS and/or ERP Pro beforehand as described above, an error message may appear. In this case, deactivate the mentioned extensions manually and try again.

4. Update Pickware

After the update to Shopware 6.7, all Pickware extensions must be updated.
To avoid errors, be sure to perform all updates first, without activating the extensions directly afterwards.

The current update of WMS or POS can be downloaded in the Pickware Account. For Shopware 6.7, at least the following versions must be installed:

  • Pickware ERP: 4.34.1

  • Pickware ERP Pro: 3.33.1

If older versions are used, serious errors occur, e.g.:

  • "Can not find association by name pickwareErpOrderPickabilities"

  • 500 errors in the storefront and in the Admin

You can then update the extensions in the usual way.

Once Pickware ERP, Pickware WMS, Pickware POS and ERP Pro have been updated to the latest version, activate ERP first and only then WMS, POS and ERP Pro.
