Ready-made ERP integrations
Workspace has ready-made integrations to major business applications such as SAP Business One, Exact Globe, HansaWorld, Compiere, SugarCRM, as well as to many in-house systems.
These integrations are implemented using OpenSyncro. It has a Connector Pack for each business application. Due to preconfigured components and tested functionality, a Connector Pack enables integrating a business application to Workspace and other systems very quickly and easily.
OpenSyncro Connector Pack for SAP Business One for instance includes all the required components to export product, pricing & customer data to Workspace and import order data to SAP Business One.

Built in components for custom integrations
OpenSyncro comes also with built-in generic data transfer components for Workspace Open Interface, FTP and local file system as well as data conversion components for XML transformations (XSLT), CSV table to XML and a generic ASCII to XML converter based on regular expressions.
This selection of OpenSyncro components makes it pretty easy to get started with integrations; for example importing product data to Workspace from a CSV table may be accomplished in a couple of hours by a person with some experience in XSLT programming.
Extract data from ERP/CRM
OpenSyncro is also very usable when building larger e-commerce solutions. In these solutions OpenSyncro can be used to extract product and customer data from company ERP.
Typically this data is sent to e-commerce site built with Smilehouse Workspace. The e-commerce site is used by consumers and smaller corporate customers. Orders made in this site are then integrated back to company ERP |
