Integrator for your ERP

The ERP already has an owner: we work with them

We wire your channel, field app, or document system into Odoo, SAP, Divalto, or Dynamics. The ERP stays the system of record: orders, stock, and documents live there, with no parallel spreadsheet.

  • ERP connectors in production
  • document types scoped
  • test environment required
In short

What is an ERP integrator and what can be connected?

An ERP integrator links your management software to the rest of the system: e-commerce site, field application, document system, WMS, CRM. The ERP stays the source for items, stock and documents; we do not replace it, we connect around it. You have a connector built when a channel order must create the document without re-entry, when the stock shown online must be real stock, when a field intervention must land as an invoice, or when a document must attach to the ERP record. The work consists of fitting your process into the ERP model, in the right direction, without duplicates or a parallel spreadsheet.

The friction

What the ERP does not see on its own

The ERP holds stock and orders. Until the channel and the field stop retyping, each module has its own truth, and the invoice catches up too late.

We retype orders into the ERP

What we do

An order validated in your application creates the ERP document, with the external reference set. No more double entry, no more stock lag.

Order created onceExternal reference setStock kept current

Online stock is never right

What we do

ERP movements flow back into the sales channel. An out-of-stock item disappears before a customer orders it.

Sourced stockShortage visibleFewer impossible orders

The invoice does not follow the intervention

What we do

The field validates, the ERP invoices. Payment status flows back. Nobody waits on a handwritten slip to bill.

Intervention to invoicePayment status returnedFewer missed invoices

Each ERP module has its own truth

What we do

We settle the source per object: item, partner, order. Without that rule, sales and stock overwrite each other in a loop.

The tools in detail

What each ERP actually involves

Divalto

Industrial SMEs

A French ERP still very present in industrial SMEs. No invented routes: the integration is judged on the shop-floor / order / invoice flows to link to your field application, and on the access mode of your version. That is confirmed at scoping, with your operator.

  • Field wired into the ERP
  • Order and invoice aligned
  • Version confirmed at scoping

Microsoft Dynamics

Microsoft ecosystem

The ERP of the Microsoft ecosystem, often already next to Outlook, SharePoint or Power Platform. The perimeter is wide: scoping fixes the building block concerned and the objects to sync. We do not invent a universal Dynamics connector here.

  • Dynamics building block identified
  • Business objects to sync
  • Scope settled at scoping

Odoo

Most requested

The most requested ERP in this category, and the only one in the corpus where “Odoo developer” has volume. External API for standard flows, Python modules when a single transaction must cross several objects. The integration is designed with your functional integrator if they are already there, not against them. The external reference on each document prevents duplicates.

  • Orders and invoices both ways
  • Python module if the external API is not enough
  • External reference against duplicates

SAP

Large accounts

The reference for complex organisations. Governance, environments, business teams already in place: the integration is done with your SAP teams, not beside them. No detailed module sheet here: scoping fixes the objects (order, delivery, invoice) and the real access mode of your landscape, rather than a generic catalogue.

  • Objects settled with SAP teams
  • Dedicated test environments
  • Governance respected

Use cases

What the ERP changes once wired into the channel

01

Channel order created in the ERP

The cart or business order creates the document in the right type. No more end-of-day retyping, no more stock lag.

02

ERP stock fed back to the site

Available-to-promise is the ERP's, not an optimistic cache. You sell what you have, including internationally.

03

Field job becomes an invoice

Closing the job creates the sales document. The invoice follows the work, not a tour spreadsheet.

04

Document system attached to the record

The DMS stays storage, the ERP stays the document. We set a stable reference, not a Drive URL in a comment.

For you

Supply, finance, field, IT: one system around the ERP

We do not replace the ERP. We wire your channel, field ops, and document system into the stack already run.

Supply sells the stock it has

The channel stops over-promising. We wire availability, not a stale overnight export.

Finance finds the document, not a CSV

Document types, tax, lettering: scoped with the ERP owner, not in a parallel spreadsheet.

The field stops being the interface

A closed job becomes a document. The tour is no longer typed twice.

IT keeps control of the core

Test environment, cutover windows, API rights: we work inside their rules.

Method

The method an ERP connector demands

01

ERP owner

Product touchpoints, incumbent, write rights, UAT sign-off.

Deliverable: owner map
02

Document types

Document type per flow, tax, warehouses, units.

Deliverable: document catalogue
03

Test environment

Sandbox, document fixtures, channel → ERP journeys, replay before cutover.

Deliverable: UAT on a copy
04

Cutover

Cutover window, freeze, catch-up, rollback.

Deliverable: cutover plan
Good to know

What nobody tells you before you sign

01

The ERP already has an owner

Administrators, functional integrator, business teams: we align with them. A connector written against the model in place gets undone at the first update.

02

Two-way sync is settled field by field

If both systems write stock, they overwrite each other. One source per object, set at scoping, avoids the loop.

03

An ERP document does not like approximation

Order, delivery, invoice form a chain. Creating the invoice without the order, or the same order twice, is paid for in manual correction.

04

The test environment is not optional

Replaying on an ERP production is a fault. The landscape (dev, test, prod) is confirmed before the first flow.

FAQ

ERP integration: your questions

Three steps. First map where your channel, field ops, or document system touch the ERP, and who is source on the item, the order, the stock, the invoice. Then set an external reference on each document and build a connector that respects ERP transactions, with retry on error. Finally test in a dedicated environment, on your real journeys. The difficulty is not calling the API, it is not duplicating an order, dereferencing stock, or leaving a parallel spreadsheet.

It depends on the ERP, the number of touchpoints (channel, field, documents) and whether a functional integrator is already in place. An Odoo order / stock flow costs far less than a multi-object SAP sync with governance. Mapping and test environments weigh as much as the code. We scope the perimeter up front and give a firm estimate.

The vendor partnership is useful for rolling out Odoo itself. To connect Odoo, SAP or Divalto to a custom application, what counts is connector experience and rigour on the documents. We claim no official partner status: we work as the development team on the integration, with your functional integrator if they are already there.

Odoo is the most requested ERP here, with an external API and the option to write a module when a single transaction is required. SAP suits organisations already structured, with governance that imposes itself on the connector. Divalto is common in French industrial SMEs. The right choice is your current tool; we do not make you migrate ERP to simplify the integration.

By putting the document id on the ERP record, not by copying the binary into the ERP or pasting a Drive URL into a comment field. The DMS stays storage, the ERP stays the document: order, invoice, credit. We map business rights (who sees the record) to drive rights, and we store a stable reference, not a link that dies. If the need is mostly documentary, the files and DMS page covers the storage connector; here the point is that the ERP document can point at the right folder.
