Bi-directional Communication Between Business Systems

Error Identification

• B2B companies can control key areas where errors occur such as mismatched prices or inaccurate delivery addresses. Identifying these risk areas is the kind of behind-the-scenes technology that customers don't necessarily know about, but they appreciate the results of seamless fulfillment.

Expedited Order Deliveries

Customers can receive custom displays and content on their interface or dedicated customer portal.

Customers can research products in greater depth, investigate suppliers for ethical lapses and connect with carriers directly.

Automation

The Case for a Custom integration

Dynamics GP partners offer a Dynamics ecommerce integration for the ERP software so that customers can easily integrate their ecommerce stores and marketplaces. [3] However, a custom integration is necessary to incorporate all business applications into the system.

Savvy companies understand that choosing the right middleware solution--the API connector layer (like Clarity Connect)--helps to automate processes, speed processing and deliver expanded customer benefits.

The right developer can help companies enjoy the benefits of a full custom integration without all the associated costs of full development. Using the right coding resources and Microsoft Dynamics GP connectors, skilled developers can transform a point-to-point integration into a complete system that connects seamlessly to third-party resources and all internal business systems.

Choosing Development as an Investment

There are a lot of intuitive and effective ERP applications available for B2B ecommerce, and Microsoft Dynamics GP software ranks as one of the best. (Microsoft will end Dynamics GP support for product enhancements, tax updates and technical support on December 31, 2029, and will provide security updates until April 30, 2031.) However, you won't get your full benefits unless you integrate the software thoroughly with your existing business applications in a custom integration. A custom integration is one of the wisest investments B2B decision-makers can make. Microsoft Dynamics GP offers you a choice of the features and modules that you want, and a Microsoft Dynamics Certified developer, like Clarity, specializes in modular development. Clarity can use Microsoft pre-built connectors to speed the integration of your Dynamics GP software with Microsoft Dynamics 365 and your POS system, ecommerce store, 3PL systems and other applications.
