Use case

Stock, price and order status that agree

Overselling, stale prices and missing tracking numbers are all the same problem seen from different angles: the shop and the ERP are not talking often enough.

Outcomes

  • Availability customers can rely on
  • Orders in the warehouse within minutes
  • Tracking sent without manual work
  • Returns and refunds reconciled

Use case

Where it is used

Catalogue and pricing

Product data and prices published from the ERP.

Availability

Live stock with channel allocation rules.

Order lifecycle

Order, shipment, invoice and return flowing both ways.

What we deliver

  • Platform connectors
  • Allocation rules
  • Order and return flows
  • Carrier integration
  • Reconciliation reporting

Problems this solves

Overselling during promotions

Reserved-aware stock published on movement rather than on a nightly schedule.

Orders exported by hand

Webshop orders create ERP orders with payment status, shipping and pricing intact.

Returns break the books

Returns and credit notes modelled so stock and accounting agree without manual correction.

How delivery runs

  1. 01

    Observe the current process

    We watch the work as it is actually done, including the workarounds, before proposing anything.

  2. 02

    Scope the first slice

    One workflow, one team, one measurable target — chosen because it carries the most manual effort.

  3. 03

    Build and pilot

    Working software in a pilot group within weeks, running alongside the current process until the numbers agree.

  4. 04

    Roll out and switch off

    Migration, training and a dated switch-off of the old route, so two processes do not run forever.

Realistic timeline

Weeks 1–2

Catalogue and order mapping.

Weeks 3–7

Stock, price and order synchronisation.

Weeks 8–11

Returns, reconciliation and monitoring.

What moves the price

Platform APIs

Capabilities and rate limits differ sharply between storefront platforms.

Pricing model

B2B agreements and unit conversions are far more work than a consumer catalogue.

Fulfilment variants

Partial shipments, dropship and multi-warehouse each add logic.

Where projects go wrong

Automating the workaround

Rules are agreed with the people who handle today's exceptions, so we encode the correct process rather than the historic patch.

Adoption stalls

Rollout has named owners and measured usage per team; software nobody uses moves cost instead of removing it.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

Channel allocation plus reservation at order time, rather than publishing raw stock.
