Choose the webshop that should connect to M3

Shopify and Shopify Plus

Should orders from Shopify go into M3, and stock and prices the other way? We review your sales model, customer structure and B2B needs, so the integration accounts for both the webshop and the ERP system.

WooCommerce

If your webshop runs on WooCommerce, the integration depends on which extensions you use and how prices and variants are set up. We assess the options for connecting it to M3 and review the other systems in your data flow.

The order lands in the right place

A customer places an order in the webshop. The order needs to reach the right customer account in M3, with the right item numbers, prices and delivery details – and the webshop needs to be told once the goods have shipped.

Agree where the data comes from

M3 can own item numbers and trading terms, while a PIM maintains copy and images. It has to be clear which system is allowed to change what, so one update does not overwrite another.

The difficult workflows included from day one

Items out of stock, special prices and orders where the confirmation never arrived. The integration gets clear rules for how errors are spotted, who handles them, and how a transfer is resumed.

Ready out of the box

What we can automate with Infor M3

Data flow

Stock management

Stock is synchronised between Infor M3 and your sales channels, so stock control is automated.

Data flow

Order handling

Orders from the webshop and marketplaces are processed automatically, so order processes are streamlined.

Data flow

Product data

Product data is synchronised, so the information is accurate and consistent across platforms and sales channels.

Data flow

Sales and customer information

Sales, stock and customer information from POS systems are synchronised in real time for a smooth in-store experience.

Data flow

Payments and transactions

Transactions from payment solutions are automated and synchronised with Infor M3 for efficient financial management.

Agree where each piece of data comes from

A good data flow starts by assigning ownership of the information. M3 can own item numbers and trading terms, for example, while a PIM system maintains copy and images.

It has to be clear which system is allowed to change what. Otherwise you risk an update from one system overwriting a change made in another.

Include the difficult workflows from the start

What happens when an item is out of stock? When the customer has a special price? Or when an order has been created in M3, but the webshop never received the confirmation?

Those are exactly the situations the integration needs clear rules for. That is why we include the critical workflows in the scoping and talk about how errors should be spotted, who handles them, and how a transfer can be resumed.

For you, that means the project gets a concrete scope that both the business and IT can work with.

Your M3 environment determines the connection

M3 Cloud Edition and older or on-premise M3 environments can place different demands on the integration. Version, access, available APIs and existing customisations therefore need to be known before the technical solution is chosen.

We go through the connection options together with you and your M3 partner. If you already have an integration, we also look at which data and workflows need to be carried over.

More integrations for Infor M3

The webshop is rarely the only system that needs to be connected to M3.

  • PIM: Centralise product data and streamline distribution to your sales channels – for example Plytix or Struct PIM.
  • POS: Synchronise sales, stock and customer information in real time between store and ERP.
  • Payment solutions: Automate transactions and reconciliation – for example Billwerk+, Clearhaus, QuickPay or PensoPay.
  • Marketplaces: Automate order processes and stock synchronisation on Amazon, for example.

Get a clear basis for project and price

An integration scoping should make it easier to decide what to get started on. We take your webshop, M3 environment and most important workflows as the starting point and review what needs a closer technical assessment.

After that we can talk specifics about the scope of the project, who is responsible for what, and the price. Implementation, support, API maintenance and later changes should all be set out in the agreement you choose.

Customer story

Proven at customers like Arcane Tinmen

37 %

of orders came through the B2B portal after one month

Arcane Tinmen

How Arcane Tinmen's distributors worldwide can restock across several locations themselves

Arcane Tinmen sells gaming accessories to distributors worldwide, but there was no customer portal that could talk to their ERP. With an integration between the B2B portal and the ERP, the distributors can now restock 100+ order lines across several locations themselves – and after three months, 95 per cent of all orders came through the portal.

Frequently asked questions

Can we integrate M3 without replacing our ERP?

The whole point is to connect your existing M3 environment with your other systems. What is possible depends on version, access and the features you want to use. We establish that before recommending a solution.

Can the integration be used for both B2B and B2C?

Both sales models can be part of an integration project. For B2B we pay particular attention to business customers, price agreements, payment terms and delivery addresses. The webshop's own features and plan are part of the assessment too.

Does all data have to be updated in real time?

The update frequency should follow the need. Stock may call for frequent updates, while product copy can often wait. We go through the requirements for each flow, so response times and load are part of the solution.

Can PIM and WMS be included?

Yes, they can be part of the overall integration architecture. We establish which system owns which information, and which connections are needed. That reduces the risk of conflicting updates.

Which industries does Infor M3 ERP support?

Infor M3 ERP is designed to meet the needs of a range of industries, including manufacturing, distribution, fashion, food and beverage, and chemicals. The system offers industry-adapted features that help companies optimise their processes.

Is Infor M3 ERP available as a cloud-based solution?

Yes, Infor M3 ERP is available as a cloud-based solution, which gives companies flexibility, scalability and access to real-time updates. Cloud deployment reduces the need for local infrastructure and supports global operations.
