E-commerce and integrations

The profit appears not when the shop opens but when it stops being run by hand. We connect the site to the accounting system, payments, couriers and marketplaces so an order reaches the warehouse without anyone retyping rows into a spreadsheet.

What is exchanged and how often

Not everything needs to be exchanged instantly. Pumping a large catalogue too often brings down both the storefront and the accounting system.

Stock

Every quarter of an hour, from the database to the storefront. The most frequent exchange, otherwise a customer buys something you do not have.

Prices

Two or three times a day, from the database to the storefront. They change less often than stock figures, so exchanging them every minute is pointless.

The catalogue and attributes

Once overnight, from the database to the storefront. The transfer is large and puts noticeable load on the accounting system.

Orders

Immediately on checkout, from the storefront to the database. Staff need to see the order without delay and in the interface they know.

Statuses and payments

Every fifteen minutes, from the database to the storefront. The customer follows the progress of their order in their own area.

Most of the difficulty in an integration comes not from the technology but from the state of the data. Duplicate items, inconsistent units, blank codes and categories invented in a hurry. That is why we study the catalogues before starting: sometimes tidying them up is cheaper than writing a handler for the chaos.

How the connection is done

Data exchange is first debugged on a copy, not on the live database. A mistake in a working catalogue costs more than a few days of preparation.

01

We review the catalogues

We study the product catalogue, the units, the warehouse structure and the price types. We record what needs cleaning up before we start.

02

We agree the rules

We decide what counts as a separate product, which price types go to the storefront and what to do with items that are out of stock.

03

A run on a copy

We walk the whole path on a copy of the database and a separate site: from placing an order to issuing the fiscal receipt.

04

Going live on real data

We connect it to the live data, set the frequency and failure alerts, and keep a close eye on it for the first week.

Questions and answers

Usually yes, though the effort depends on the platform version and how heavily it has been customised. An untouched configuration connects almost immediately; a heavily modified one needs its own handler. We study the database in advance and give a definite answer.

The storefront carries on with the last data it received and we get an alert. Orders accumulate on the site side and pass into the database as soon as the connection returns. Nothing is lost.

If you sell only online, a hosted register is enough: the receipts are created and transmitted without any hardware on the premises. A physical device is needed where cash is taken or payment happens on the shop floor.

That is exactly what the integration is for. The stock figure goes down in the shared system regardless of which storefront the order came from. We also set up reservation so the last item cannot go to two buyers on different platforms.
