As companies grow, more and more specialized systems are introduced over time to handle business transactions. The nucleus of the system landscape is usually the ERP system, as it encompasses all commercial and order processing-related processes.<\/p>\n
ERP integrations are required to connect and synchronize different systems and data within a company. This allows for more efficient and automated handling of business processes and leads to better visibility and control of business activities.<\/p>\n
We help you simplify and automate your processes by integrating systems and enabling data exchange between them.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
An integration of the following systems with an ERP system allows for sharing and syncing data to provide a unified view of the business and its processes:<\/p>\n
Ultimately, the integration needs depend on the specific systems used and the nature and extent of their usage.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
The integration of systems comes with various challenges that require systematic and structured approaches to integration. Some of these challenges include:<\/p>\n
1. Data Consistency and Quality:<\/strong> Ensuring that the data integrated into ERP systems is consistent and of high quality is essential for error-free business processes. It’s crucial to determine which system is the “leader” and holds the master data to avoid inconsistencies.<\/p>\n 2. Integration Complexity:<\/strong> The integration architecture must be carefully planned to ensure seamless integration of systems. Depending on the software used and available interfaces, the integration process can vary in complexity.<\/p>\n 3. Compatibility Issues:<\/strong> Systems must be compatible to efficiently exchange data. If they are not, compatibility can be achieved through suitable middleware.<\/p>\n 4. Data Security and Privacy:<\/strong> Measures must be implemented to secure sensitive business data.<\/p>\n 5. Adaptations to Business Processes:<\/strong> It may be necessary to adapt business processes to enable seamless integration. The reasons for this can be either commercially driven or technically required.<\/p>\n 6. Handling Changes:<\/strong> Changes in one system can impact other systems. Therefore, a process must be implemented to efficiently manage changes, such as during updates or customizations.<\/p>\n 7. Training and Adaptation:<\/strong> It is important that users understand and master the systems and the functionality of the integration to ensure successful operation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
