Question
I have a contract that requires WooCommerce to connect to Oracle Micros POS. I would like to know if you guys would be able to build that so when an order is made on the site, it syncs properly. Also, it has to be enabled for mobile app using the api on the WooCommerce website DB to really sync all POS systems under one inventory.
Answer
Thank you for your interest in Modern Retail and our WooCommerce integrator. We don’t yet have an integration with Oracle Micros, but we’d love to have one!
To answer your questions, yes our integration typically takes the products from Oracle Micros and sends them to WooCommerce where they can be merchandised for the web. Orders placed online would then be sent to Oracle Micros, giving you a holistic view of all your online and in-store purchases. I believe this integration is exactly what you are looking for.
I took a look at the Oracle Micros website but could not find any information about an application programming interface (API) or import/export capabilities (however, I may have missed it). If Oracle Micros has an API, then it would be fairly easy to get their API connected to our Middleware/API. If they don’t have an API, then we could always use Modern Retail's Inventory CSV/XML Uploader using FTP. We have a variety of other methods that we’ve used over the years which we could also try.
May I make a suggestion? Could you please ask your client to e-mail their representative at Oracle Micros and let them know they’re interested in getting Oracle Micros integrated with their website? If you copy me on the message, I’ll immediately reply asking to set up a meeting with Oracle Micros. 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.
You’ll find we’re experts at POS and ERP integrations; it’s something we've been doing for over a decade and have amassed a great deal of knowledge and technology doing 1,300+ integrations. Here are just some of the articles that I can share with you that make us different.

I suspect you’re interested in how the integration works from the WooCommerce side, so please read:
You’ll love our WooCommerce Integrator Dashboard, which gives you an overview of the status of your integration.
Please let me know if you need anything else or would like to jump on a call before getting with Oracle Micros. Thank you
