Pathway Solutions
Pathway Solutions automates DATEV accounting for Shopify merchants. Over 2,000 stores and tax advisors use Pathway for legally compliant DATEV exports.
Pathway Solutions is the leading Shopify app for automated DATEV accounting. Developed in collaboration with tax advisors, Pathway automates the export of all invoices, revenue, payments, refunds, and credits directly to DATEV. Over 2,000 Shopify merchants and tax advisory firms use Pathway for legally compliant, OSS-ready accounting without manual data preparation.
Pathway Solutions + 8returns
The combination of 8returns and Pathway Solutions bridges the gap between returns management and accounting. Refunds triggered through 8returns — whether as reimbursements, credits, or store credit — automatically flow into Pathway's DATEV export.
For Shopify merchants already using 8returns' DATEV export, Pathway adds the full financial context: shipping costs, discounts, payment fees, and refunds are booked separately, resulting in a complete ecommerce P&L. Your tax advisor gets clean data, and you save hours of manual work.
Use Cases
Automatically book returns
Refunds and credits from 8returns are automatically recorded in Pathway's DATEV export — no manual work required.
OSS-compliant tax calculation
Pathway splits revenue by delivery country (OSS-ready). Combined with 8returns, refunds are also correctly booked per country.
Ecommerce P&L
Separate booking of refunds, discounts, and shipping costs — including the returns impact on your P&L.
