Introduction
Infor/ERP Solutions from Clarity
Infor ERP is a powerful enterprise resource planning solution that delivers comprehensive capabilities for different industries, especially manufacturing, and distribution. Infor has created an enterprise resource planning (ERP) eCommerce solution to best serve all of its clients' unique needs.

Benefits and Features of Infor
- Use Infor’s Intelligent Open Network: Infor's ION is a middleware solution designed to help developers easily integrate Infor with third-party systems.
- Employ Clarity Connect: Clarity's middleware solution, Clarity Connect, serves as a communication hub for integrations, ensuring that data is always successfully transferred.
- Utilize SSL: When data is transferred between systems it should always be over secure socket layers to keep the information secure.
- Automate Data Transfers: Automated data transfers, which are a result of integration, keep your staff from having to manually transfer important data between systems.
- Present the Most Up-to-Date Data: An Infor integration enables you to be able to show your employees and clients the most up-to-date information about inventory and orders.
- Access and Update Data from One System: Integrating Infor with ecommerce allows you to view and change all of your data easily from one screen.
Use the Right Tools
When performing any integration, using the right tools is extremely important. The Intelligent Open Network (ION) provided by Infor supplies the framework to build a robust integration between Infor and eCommerce, or any other third-party software or system.
To further maximize your Infor and eCommerce integration, Clarity uses our middleware layer, Clarity Connect, to serve as a queue and communication hub. Clarity Connect receives and stores data from one of the systems until it is successfully received and transferred to the other system. And don't forget to use SSL to keep data safe during data transmissions.
Infor integrated commerce delivers improvements in a rich and consistent way. An integration saves your business time and resources. Automated data transfers eliminate the need for data to be manually rekeyed. Updating data in both systems by just changing it in one of them allows your employees to tend to other tasks. And showing your customers and clients real-time information about their orders and your inventory reduces the demand on your sales and customer service teams.
Integration with Every eCommerce Platform
Using Infor as an integrated product information management tool can help you provide a seamless online shopping experience for your customers. Clarity's team of experts has executed numerous successful Infor ERP solutions and eCommerce integrations for our clients. We have worked with Infor software and have the experience needed to implement and integrate such a robust system.
Clarity builds this on its own two platforms: Clarity eCommerce for the storefront, and Clarity Connect, the integration platform that keeps the store and Infor in sync in both directions. Infor integration with Clarity Connect explains which Infor products it covers and how the connection works.
