SAP Business One is one of the most common ERP systems used by small and medium-sized businesses to help manage operations and increase sales.

But it’s been time-consuming and budget-draining to integrate of SAP Business One with other systems, such as ecommerce platforms and marketplaces, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems, and shipping systems. Projects run on for weeks and months, with consulting fees adding up. Even after the project is finally complete, additional consulting fees are required when changes need to be made to the system.

After years of working with clients on the typical headaches and high costs of SAP Business One integration, the team at Alluvia developed a revolutionary integration tool that automates the integration process. SAP Business One integration is now possible in just a few days and at an affordable price.

We are pleased to provide you with a free white paper describing our integrator tool. This paper provides:

• An overview of the many benefits of SAP Business One integration.

• Details about specific integration connections, including:
  • Popular ecommerce marketplaces, such as Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and Jet.com
  • Shopping carts, including Shopify, Magento, BigCommerce, and WooCommerce
  • CRM systems, such as Salesforce
  • Shipping systems
  • Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) integrations
  • Custom file integrations

We also cover a detailed, step-by-step comparison of traditional SAP Business One integration with the rapid and incredibly simple process of using the revolutionary integrator tool from Alluvia.

This tool from Alluvia automates the integration process, eliminating the need for expensive consultants. SAP Business One integration can be accomplished quickly and easily at a price small and mid-size businesses can afford. We are excited to share this tool with you as we continue providing businesses with affordable technology to empower long-term success.

Jet.com launched in 2015, then was purchased by Walmart in August 2016 for $3.3 billion as part of Walmart’s efforts to compete with Amazon.

Jet brings some unique features to the ecommerce table:

• One-stop shopping where you can get just about anything.
• Free shipping on purchases over $35.
• Buyer incentives to reduce overall cost:
  • Buy more to save more.
  • Add tagged items to your shopping cart that are easily shipped with other items to reduce shipping costs.
  • Use a preferred method of payment (debit is cheaper than credit).
  • Opt out of free returns.

Jet is a retailer-friendly marketplace, helping sellers increase profitability. Jet’s dual focus on customers and retailers creates a shopping environment that benefits both sides.

Integrating Jet with SAP Business One maximizes your potential for sales and expands your customer base.

Partner with Jet

Jet helps retail partners by:

• Choosing the best seller to fill an order based on the economics of the customer’s shopping cart.
• Providing sellers with a tool – The Rules Engine – to adjust prices automatically based on factors such as order size and shipping destination.
• Giving sellers the option to obtain customer information for marketing purposes.

You must apply to sell on Jet as they are only interested in reliable sellers. There are no fees for the application or running a Jet business, and Jet receives commissions based on the type of product you’re selling.

Integrate Jet.com and SAP Business One

Manual setup on Jet is not offered, so integration is a must. This is one way that Jet ensures only reliable sellers are part of its marketplace.

As a Jet seller, your orders need to immediately flow into SAP Business One so your inventory is up to date and orders are filled quickly. Real-time inventory tracking is important since Jet encourages customers to buy more to save more.

SAP Business One and Jet integration creates an efficient workflow that gets orders tracked and filled quickly, creating a happy and loyal customer base.

Consultants can integrate Jet and SAP Business One for you, but it will be expensive and can take weeks and weeks of development time.

Alluvia’s revolutionary Jet and SAP Business One connector makes integration possible in minutes without consultants:

• A drag-and-drop interface allows you to match your Jet data elements to your SAP data elements with pre-built Jet templates.
• Easily make changes to your integration setup as your business grows.

Getting priced out of integration is a thing of the past. Alluvia can get you there today and leave money in your budget.

Walmart – the world’s largest retailer – reported a 63% increase in U.S. ecommerce sales for Q1 of fiscal year 2018.

The retailer is also battling Amazon for a greater share of ecommerce sales, as shown by its partnership with Google to enable voice shopping through Google Assistant. Shoppers will be able to use Walmart’s “Easy Reorder” feature with Google Express (Google’s shopping service). This will enable shoppers to buy many Walmart products through voice recognition technology alone. No clicking required.

As Walmart’s ecommerce sales continue to increase and its commitment to new technologies opens new doors for revenue opportunities, it is becoming an increasingly important ecommerce platform for retailers.

Once you have decided to sell on Walmart Marketplace, you need to make it simple to manage orders and inventory. This is where integrating SAP Business One with Walmart becomes important. Fortunately, Alluvia offers a revolutionary Walmart and SAP Business One connector that is both simple and affordable.

The Walmart Marketplace

Retailers who sell on Walmart do so through Walmart Marketplace. Sellers must first be approved. Walmart looks for the following qualities in Marketplace sellers:

• Excellent customer service
• Competitive pricing
• Fast order fulfillment
• Reliability
• Variety in product selection

Once approved, sellers can create a product catalog, set prices, and control their inventory. You ship items directly to the customer. Sellers receive payment from Walmart.com for the items they sell.

Walmart does not charge sellers any monthly or setup fees. The company collects a referral fee on each sale as it occurs. The referral fee varies based on the type of item you are selling. Details are available here.

Why you need to integrate Walmart and SAP Business One

The benefits of integrating Walmart with SAP Business One include:

• No more manual data entry – Integration means you no longer have to manually enter data into SAP Business One, removing data entry errors and saving time.  
• Receive real-time inventory updates – Ensure you don’t sell items that are out of stock and stay on top of low inventory items.
• Automate the fulfillment process – Integrating SAP Business One and Walmart creates efficiencies in the order fulfillment process by removing all the manual steps. Orders are fulfilled faster.
• Create a better customer experience – When orders are fulfilled faster and with fewer errors, customers are happy. They keep coming back to you for more products, and they are more likely to refer your business to a friend.
• Reduced costs – The time and resources saved from integration mean you spend less money and resources on data entry, order fulfillment, and inventory tracking.

Integration is a necessary step in a successful Walmart Marketplace operation.
