Systems Integration & APIs

One view of stock, wherever it's held.

Connect your ERP with warehouse systems, handheld applications and third-party logistics partners so inventory, picking and fulfilment status stay accurate across every location.

The problem

When stock moves, every system needs to know.

Orders go out to a warehouse or 3PL partner by email or file, confirmations come back late, and stock figures in the ERP drift away from what's actually on the shelf.

We connect the systems involved so orders, receipts, movements and despatch confirmations are exchanged as part of a controlled process, with clear evidence when something needs attention.

What the integration can cover

  • Inventory levels and stock movements.
  • Goods receipts and purchase receipt processes.
  • Picking, packing and despatch instructions and confirmations.
  • Task and shipment status shared back to your ERP.
  • Handheld and OneApp warehouse processes connected to the same data.
  • File exchanges with logistics partners, including SFTP.
01 / How it works

Using the interface each partner supports.

Some partners provide APIs; others exchange files. We design around what's available, and add the validation, confirmation and recovery that make the process dependable.

APIs

Where warehouse or logistics platforms offer APIs, orders and confirmations can be exchanged directly and confirmed.

Managed file transfer

For file-based partners, OneBridge automates and logs recurring FTP and SFTP exchanges.

Handheld processes

Warehouse apps built on OneApp capture receipts, movements and picks at source.

Warehouse Tracking

Web Control developed an automated Warehouse Application using retro fitted iPads cradled to forklift trucks to facilitate the random put-away of pallet-based stock. This included an auto pallet labelling feature with an improved purchase receipt process.

We also had developed a tablet-based application for sales order creation whilst sales representatives are out on the road. This application enables the download of customer orders via mobile data direct to their back-office ERP system. This has provided us with our own in-house document management software, enabling key business forms to be developed then printed or emailed as required.

This software is used to support our business forms. More recently we've worked closely with Web Control on our transactional website project, providing back-end integration allowing web based B2C orders to seamlessly process through our back-office systems.

E-Commerce Solution

Ambirad contacted Web Control to assist in the development of an E-Commerce solution for the business. The Webstore we were presented with was simple to use, integrated brilliantly with Infoflo and was developed inline with our existing website style.

The Webstore has the ability for customers to see their current account status live from Infoflo, View/Update delivery addresses, resend past invoices and view order progress. The implementation of the Webstore has improved our customer service and allowed customers to order parts anytime of the day.

The knowledge and support from Web Control was excellent and the project was delivered inline with budget and on time.
