Question
Hi folks. I have a prospective client that is a successful high end fashion retailer. They are using the A2000 ERP system. They need an e-commerce site that connects to their ERP system. We use WooCommerce as the e-commerce solution. Thoughts?
Answer
Thank you for your interest in Modern Retail. We would love to help you get their website integrated with A2000 ERP. The following article describes your options around this integration:
I took a look at the A2000 ERP website but could not find any information about an application programming interface (API) or import/export capabilities. I did see they have “eCommerce Connectors” listed but couldn’t find any additional information.
If A2000 ERP has an API, then it would be fairly easy to get their API connected to our API. If they don’t have an API, then we could always use Modern Retail's Inventory CSV/XML Uploader using FTP. We also have a variety of other methods that we’ve used over the years which we could also use.
May I make a suggestion? Could you please ask your client to send an e-mail to your representative at A2000 ERP and let them know you’re interested in getting their application integrated with their website? If you copy me on the message, I’ll immediately reply asking to set up a meeting with A2000 ERP. Getting our developers to talk with their developers even for 30 minutes makes a huge difference and can really help to “jump start” the integration efforts.
Please let me know if you need anything else or would like to jump on a call before getting with A2000 ERP. Thank you.
