Connecting new merchants: in days instead of weeks
Every merchant brings their own system. Anyone who builds each integration as a separate project loses orders to faster providers.
Which systems a merchant brings
- Shop systems such as Shopware, Shopify, WooCommerce or Magento
- Marketplaces such as Amazon, Otto, Kaufland or eBay
- Inventory management and ERP such as JTL-Wawi, Xentral, Business Central or SAP
- Carriers such as DHL, DPD, GLS or UPS
What data has to flow
From merchant to warehouse: item master, goods receipt advance notices, orders. From warehouse to merchant: stock, shipping status with tracking number, returns. If one of these flows is missing, manual work arises, usually by email and spreadsheet.
Where things get stuck in practice
- Item numbers and units do not match, for example carton versus piece.
- Stock levels are reported back too rarely, the shop sells what is not there.
- Special cases such as partial deliveries, cancellations or sets are not handled.
- Every integration accesses the warehouse system directly. An error in one shop then disrupts all customers.
This is faster
A platform in front of the warehouse system takes in all integrations, checks and translates the data and passes only clean records on to the warehouse system. New systems come from a catalogue with a fixed price and a fixed delivery time, instead of becoming a project every time.
That is how X-Sitter CONNECT works. According to Mönig Logistik, it uses it to connect new customers in a few days instead of weeks, without additional developer capacity (References).
