Challenge

A shop that had to go live quickly and still connect cleanly to the existing inventory management. Orders, customers, stock, shipping and returns must not be maintained twice, and customers should always see where their order is.

Solution

The shop runs on Shopify with a customised theme. Our own connector links it to the ERP: it is event-driven, every process is built as a state machine and resumes where it stopped after a disruption.

Order import: Shopify orders become orders in the ERP, with payment data from Shopify Payments and PayPal
Customer matching: known customers are recognised, new ones automatically get a customer number in the ERP
Shipping: fulfilment and DHL tracking number go back to Shopify, customers track their parcel
Stock: inventory levels from the ERP are updated in the shop, additional data arrives as metafields
Returns: returns from Shopify are created in the ERP, approved and answered with a return label
Key figures: revenue, orders and checkouts of the shop appear in a dedicated dashboard in the portal
