What is a Dynamics GP Integration with your B2B eCommerce?

Dynamics GP Integration and Your B2B eCommerce

Microsoft Dynamics Great Plains and eConnect

Consumers and businesses alike expect tailored products, seamless B2C interactions, detailed information tracking, and most of all, the ability to do all of this from the comfort of our couch at home. Business to Business eCommerce customers have come to expect the same custom-tailored products, detailed information tracking, and the quick and seamless interactions commonly associated with B2C-oriented commerce websites.

With such high expectations and B2B eCommerce consumer demand soaring, how can a business increase the efficiency of its eCommerce platform? That is where Microsoft Dynamics GP integration and eConnect come into play.

So, your business is already plotted on the social media map and your website is the first on the list, wouldn’t that make you the best? If you think so, I think you may need to think again. eCommerce is much more complex than meets the eye. There is a living, breathing machine that works behind the scene. For every transaction there is a reaction, shipping costs, tracking info, reporting the sale, updating inventory, you name it.

With all this time-consuming work to do, you are missing out on an opportunity to increase your efficiency and customer satisfaction by using GP’s automated processing. With GP you will be able to seamlessly access, organize and manage all digital aspects of a business. Live reporting, complex storefronts, inventory management, and even employee reports are all available with Great Plains. Without the constant need to enter and update data, the intelligent processing Dynamics GP delivers will cut down on every aspect of your eCommerce back-end work.

What is Dynamics GP?

Microsoft Dynamics GP is an out-of-the-box management powerhouse. Simple as that. (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.) With this product, businesses are able to fully exploit the benefits of all online channels. Whether you are focusing on an online, mobile, social, or third-party marketplace, using Dynamics GP with eConnect for your B2B Dynamics GP eCommerce will increase the overall efficiency of your business. GP integration equips a company with real-time information tracking, asset organization, and resource management of all aspects of a business.

When coupled with eConnect’s interface, the business is given access to a collection of tools and components that work seamlessly within Dynamics GP. These interfaces make your eCommerce accessible by external applications such as point-of-sale systems, web storefronts, online services, B2B sales tax and shipping calculations, and more. When dealing with online markets, torrents of information and the demand for fast transactions can cause a business to easily fall behind the expectations of the business consumer. In order to meet and exceed these, a business using Dynamics Great Plains will be able to fully revitalize and increase the overall performance of its e-Commerce.
