Shopify interface to Xentral

What the Shopify interface to the ERP system Xentral can do, we explain in today’s video. Are scale prices native or do they only work with a plugin? How is the Shopify interface different from the competition? You can get answers to these questions here.

Xentral

If you’re in online retail, you surely know how crucial a good ERP system is for your sustainable success. Because you need a system at your side that supports you in your daily work and with which you can save time. Xentral offers an innovative and web-based ERP system that can help you strategically.

Shopify

eCommerce has undergone rapid development as digitalization takes on an ever greater role in our lives. If you want to have long-term success as a retailer, it’s important to familiarize yourself a bit with online commerce. For example, do you want to create your own online store? Then Shopify can offer you a solution. Shopify is an eCommerce software that allows small to medium-sized businesses in particular to create online stores themselves and outsource logistics. Especially in terms of security and hosting, it stands out from other providers. It’s easy to set up and there are numerous plugins available to connect to major shipping and payment providers. Shopify scales with you – giving you full control over the look and feel of your website or online store.

Shopify interface to Xentral

Xentral and Shopify both sound interesting to you? In fact, it is possible to connect the two because Xentral has developed an interface to Shopify. Since Shopify is a very modern software, the application programming interface (API) is also very good. Do you want to bring in orders? Or transfer tracking numbers directly to the store? An interface is primarily concerned with precisely such work processes. The entire maintenance of your article data is possible, all descriptions, images and even categories can be transferred with the appropriate interface. This way, you don’t have to spend double time, because you only have to do the item maintenance in one place. If you already have an existing store, it is also possible to easily import whole articles.

Shopify and Xentral harmonize with each other

Shopify has become increasingly popular, especially lately – and rightly so. Because Shopify, as already mentioned, offers many different plugins that quickly help in certain situations. With other systems it is often the case that some adjustment work has to be carried out. The whole process is different with Shopify. The structure has been intelligently set up to work so well with the ERP software that there is little need to add custom data fields. So that the plugins can work with existing structures. For example, scale prices: There are already standard structures for scale prices on Shopify, so the plugin works with the basic structures and just makes them even better. A harmony between ERP software and store system – and you as a merchant benefit from it.

Differences to other store systems

If you compare Shopify with other store systems such as Magento or WooCommerce, you will find some differences. First and foremost, it is worth mentioning that all store systems have good APIs and do not differ so much from each other in this point. The biggest differences are on issues like tax. Magento, for example, offers very good tax rights. Shopify tends to offer B2B and B2C. B2B refers to business relationships between two or more companies, while B2C describes a business relationship between a company and a private individual. If discounts or coupons are added and you want to make the whole thing international, Shopify still needs some time to expand even further here.

Xentral is a reliable contact

Still, Shopify delivers so many benefits that it’s definitely worth it for you to take a closer look. You can easily find connections to markets and thus also quickly generate sales. Moreover, as a merchant, you don’t have to worry about complicated technical processes because Shopify’s architecture is extremely perfomant. The core of Shopify, the core structure, is so well-developed that it is extremely easy to work with. The interface to Shopify has to run and Xentral knows that too. All connectors are all manufactured by Xentral itself and not by third party suppliers. This means that you not only get a strong interface, but also a reliable contact person who can support you in any of your concerns. If you decide to interface with Shopify, it’s because you have precise goals and want to achieve them with it. Automate your processes and scale your business. Therefore, Xentral takes support very seriously and responds extremely quickly to questions or any problems that may arise.

Xentral takes over numerous processes completely automatically, making manual intervention unnecessary in many cases. The work and administrative effort can thus be greatly reduced.
