Steps
Confirm both a WineDirect account and a Sovos ShipCompliant account are active, and review WineDirect's ShipCompliant/Sovos integration documentation (docs.winedirect.com/docs/shipcompliant-1) for current setup steps.
Enable the ShipCompliant connection from WineDirect so new orders automatically flow to ShipCompliant rather than requiring manual export/import.
Confirm ShipCompliant is configured to run its real-time compliance check (shipping-state legality, volume limits, licensing) and tax determination at the point the order is placed, not after fulfillment.
Set up alerting or a review queue for orders that ShipCompliant flags as non-compliant (e.g., shipping to a restricted state or exceeding a consumer volume limit) so they don't ship automatically.
Periodically reconcile order counts and tax remittance figures between WineDirect and ShipCompliant to confirm every order that should be checked actually was.
Known gotchas
This integration governs a legal shipping-compliance gate, not just tax math — a misconfiguration that lets orders bypass the ShipCompliant check can result in unlawful DTC alcohol shipments; treat setup and testing accordingly, with extra verification before go-live.
State DTC shipping laws and volume/licensing limits change frequently; ShipCompliant's rules engine is the source of truth for current requirements, so don't hardcode state-shipping logic elsewhere in the stack as a shortcut.
