ERP/WMS API Integration for distribution
ERP integration is the automatic synchronisation between the ERP and the operational systems around it: CRM, orders, warehouse and B2B portal. With CRMconnect the ERP stays the source for items, stock and accounting, and orders and invoices are written back into it, with no migration. Documented integration exists for 18 ERPs. In distribution, orders arrive on three channels at once - field reps, the B2B portal and retail chain EDI - and the margin is lost re-keying the same data. The module runs on top of the ERP you already use, and the field sales, commercial back-office and logistics teams work on the same data, in real time.
ERP/WMS API Integration for distribution
Start with a trial, no card required, with a real flow from your distribution company, and decide once you see the result.
Why erp/wms api integration matters in distribution
In distribution, orders arrive on three channels at once - field reps, the B2B portal and retail chain EDI - and the margin is lost re-keying the same data. Connect the ERP to the CRM, orders, warehouse and B2B portal, with two-way sync and no migration. The result you are after is not "one more system", it is the time from order to invoice and the number of orders processed per person per day.
- Orders received via WhatsApp and manually re-entered into the ERP
- Field agents lacking visibility on real-time stock and credit limits
- EDI orders from major retailers processed manually via Excel
- Inconsistent discounting across agents without centralized control
What you actually get
The module capabilities, applied to the commercial flow of a distribution company:
- The ERP owns the item master, cost, accounting stock, accounting entries and payments.
- The CRM owns the lead, the opportunity, the quote, the activity and the visit plan.
- The order is captured in the CRM, in the portal or through EDI and arrives validated in the ERP.
- The invoice is issued once and reaches accounting without retyping.
On top of the ERP you already have
CRMconnect does not replace your ERP. It connects over API and syncs master data, prices, stock, balances and documents, so the accounting ledger stays where it is while the commercial teams work in an interface built for selling, not for bookkeeping.
What you get beyond an isolated module
The module is not a separate app connected through files. It runs on the same platform, with the same master data, the same access rights and the same audit trail as every other CRMconnect module.
Native module, not a connector
Every module, solution and feature in CRMconnect is native. No third-party licences and no integrator needed to move data between systems.
One master data set
Partners, products, prices and the org structure are shared across modules. A change made in one department is instantly visible in the others.
Coexists with your ERP
CRMconnect does not replace the ERP: it sits on top as an operations layer and syncs documents both ways. The accounting ledger stays where it is today.
Fiscal documents and e-invoicing
Invoicing, e-Factura and e-Transport are native, and bank reconciliation maps entries to the chart of accounts before the export to your ERP.
Roles, rights and audit
Every action has an author and a timestamp. Rights are granted per role and per department, and the audit log can be filtered and exported for internal controls.
Mobile and Arvis AI
The same data is available in the field on mobile, and Arvis AI answers questions and builds dashboards straight from a prompt.
How the module reaches production, step by step
You don't start with a six-month project. You start with a trial account on your own data, then roll out department by department. Implementation is priced by team size, number of departments, imported data volume and workflow complexity.
- 1Trial account and structure setup: users, roles, access rights.
- 2Data import: partners, products, prices and history, from Excel or straight from the ERP.
- 3Workflow configuration: stages, approvals, notifications and owners per step.
- 4Connection to your existing ERP so documents flow both ways.
- 5Role-based training and a pilot with a small team, in parallel with the current process.
- 6Go-live for the whole department, with reports and alerts active from day one.
Frequently asked questions
- Is ERP/WMS API Integration a good fit for a distribution company?
- Yes. The module is part of the standard CRMconnect catalogue and is configured for the specific flow in distribution: fields, roles, approval rules and reports. It is not a separate product edition, it is the same platform configured for your context.
- Do we have to change our ERP to use the module?
- No. Integration runs over API with your existing ERP. Invoicing, e-Invoicing and reconciliation can run in CRMconnect, while the final records stay in sync with the ERP.
- What is ERP integration?
- ERP integration is the automatic connection of the ERP with the company's other systems, such as the CRM, the B2B portal, the warehouse or the online shop. The ERP stays the source for items, stock and accounting, and commercial documents created in the other systems reach it without anyone in the office entering them a second time.
- Do I have to change my ERP to use CRMconnect?
- No, CRMconnect works on top of the existing ERP and does not involve migrating accounting or inventory. The ERP stays the system of record, while the CRM, the B2B portal, the warehouse and EDI use its data through synchronisation. The finance team keeps working in the program it knows.
Questions about the platform and implementation
- Do I have to drop my current ERP to use the module?
- No. CRMconnect runs as an operations layer on top of your ERP: it exchanges documents through integration while accounting stays in the ERP. It can also run standalone if you don't have an ERP yet.
- Are the modules native or integrated third-party apps?
- Every CRMconnect module and feature is native, built inside the same platform. No separate licences, no middlemen, no file-based syncing between vendors.
- How long until the module is live?
- The trial account starts immediately, and a department is usually live within a few weeks, depending on imported data volume and workflow complexity.
- How is the implementation cost calculated?
- By team size, number of activated departments, imported data volume and the complexity of the workflows and integrations required. The monthly subscription is separate from the one-off implementation fee.
- Where is the data hosted and who can access it?
- Each customer runs on single-tenant pods in AWS or Azure with auto-scaling. Access is controlled per role and department, and every action stays in the audit log.
