ERP and WMS integration for continuous data
ERP stands for enterprise resource planning, the central business software. WMS stands for warehouse management system, the software used to control warehouse operations. We examine how both can work together with our processes.
The video explains schematically which data is exchanged between your ERP or WMS system and our processes, and how an integration is reviewed and set up. The video is only loaded once you click. No external content is requested beforehand.
Duration: 0:30Data exchange instead of spreadsheet maintenance
When orders travel by email and stock levels by spreadsheet, delays and errors follow. A technical integration resolves this: order data arrives in a structured form, stock levels and shipment status are reported back. Which routes are available depends on your systems – we clarify that before the project starts.
Scope of services
- Review of integration options for existing ERP systems
- Integration via interfaces (API)
- Review of integration options for WMS systems
- Existing or possible integration with JTL and Pulpo
- Automated data exchange for order, item and stock data
- Stock and status reporting to your system
- Scalable technical interfaces for growing data volumes
- Agreement on data formats, handover points and intervals
The specific scope of an integration depends on the system in use and the interfaces it offers. We do not promise an integration that has not been examined in the individual case – feasibility is clarified before the project starts.
Your benefits
Less manual transfer
Order and stock data are handed over rather than retyped.
Current data
Stock levels and shipment status can be reported back at agreed intervals.
Fits your system landscape
We work with what you use – not the other way round.
Defined handover points
Formats, fields and timings are set out in writing.
Typical process
System review
We record which systems you use and which interfaces they provide.
Feasibility check
We examine which data can be exchanged, in which direction and in which format.
Set-up and testing
The integration is configured and verified with test data before going live.
Operation and adjustment
The integration runs in day-to-day operation; changes to range or processes are reflected.
Suitable applications
- Companies with an existing ERP system
- Businesses using or introducing a WMS
- Online retailers with a connected shop system
- Companies with high manual transfer effort
- Projects with several data sources
- Companies wanting stock visibility within their own system
Frequently asked questions
ERP stands for enterprise resource planning – the central business software for orders, items and stock. WMS stands for warehouse management system, the software used to control warehouse processes.
Integration with JTL and Pulpo is envisaged or possible in principle. What can be implemented in a specific project is examined against your system version and the interfaces available.
Typically item and order data in your direction and stock and status data back. The exact scope is defined jointly.
We then examine alternative routes, such as structured file transfers at defined intervals. That also reduces manual effort considerably.
