How to connect the store system with WooCommerce Connector using XENTRAL

Finding a German eCommerce ERP system for the American store system WooCommerce – no easy task. We want to shorten your search a little and introduce XENTRAL to you today. The Xentral ERP system has a WooCommerce interface. But is this interface to be understood as a plugin or as a direct connection to the API? Answers can be found in the video from CEO Benedikt Sauter.

WooCommerce is an American store system

You use an American store system like WooCommerce? WooCommerce is a free plug-in for WordPress, which adds the functionality of an online store to the content management system. The open source system can be extended to an individual store with extensions and customized with various plug-ins. This means that even as a new online merchant, you can create an online store with little programming knowledge. But which German ERP system can you use with this American store system without any problems? Often this very question is a challenge, because not many ERP systems can work well together with WooCommerce. Xentral offers a solution for this.

Xentral interface to WooCommerce

Xentral is a web-based and innovative ERP system that supports you strategically in your daily work. Because you can synchronize all sales channels and link marketplaces with each other and control them centrally. Additionally, Xentral has developed an interface to WooCommerce, so you can take advantage of Xentral and WooCommerce together. First Xentral worked with a plugin and was able to control all data with its own applications. Meanwhile, there is a direct connection to the WooCommerce API. So all item data, orders, images, categories and much more can be very well transferred to WooCommerce and also picked up. Wondering which versions of Xentral are supported? Here, Xentral is broadly positioned, so that you can also use older versions.

New plugins do not pose any problems

WooCommerce works with many different plugins and can also change the database a bit with a new update. But the Xentral interface has already gathered experience and developed solutions for this as well. It always depends on what kind of products you offer in your online store. If the products are primarily relatively standard products, i.e., products that require little personalization or configuration, the chances are very good that everything will work out perfectly. Of course, there are always cases where, for example, a lot needs to be adjusted. But even here the effort is no longer so great, because both WooCommerce and the Xentral interface are open systems, where you can always look how to get the missing differences pure.

Data can be controlled from WooCommerce and Xentral

But how do you control all your data now? So all your products, inventory, sales and returns? If it’s about the SEO data and URL structure, should you use WooCommerce or Xentral? In fact, both systems are eligible for this. It just depends on what works better for you and your workflow. Xentral can easily transfer everything into WooCommerce so you have centralized data stores. However, if you already have another system that handles this process, Xentral can interface well with it. So, for example, you can easily enter the meta data at Xentral, and it will be passed to WooCommerce. Do you now have an additional SEO plugin and want to change a few things? Then it would have to be looked here individually, which structures the plugin uses. Whether it uses normal structures or its own structures. If it uses its own structures, it must be briefly looked into what needs to be changed and how it needs to be adapted.

Data can be controlled from WooCommerce and Xentral

The best way to do this, however, is to map the structure in Xentral that feels good to you. For this purpose, there are various fields for search words or properties, for example. Additionally, you should build up exactly what you need in the store. If you offer a lot of items, it is worth hiring a professional agency. This can then adjust the interface in exactly the right place. An agency can optimize this technical process within 5 to 10 hours, saving you valuable time. Since all interfaces are developed by Xentral itself, Xentral can also adapt optimally. The important thing is that the API is compatible and this remains so even with newer versions. Even if a new plugin comes in and changes the API in such a way that it is no longer 100% compatible, Xentral can still get directly into the store via a database connection if necessary. A reliable and well-functioning e-commerce ERP system with which you can connect WooCommerce – that’s what you’ll find at Xentral.
