WooCommerce connection with SingularLogic Galaxy Enterprise Suite

WE SYNCHRONIZE THE WAREHOUSE,
ORDERS, AND CUSTOMERS.

If you have SingularLogic’s Galaxy Enterprise Suite as an ERP or Business Management software and have an online store in WooCommerce, you can bridge them and be updated automatically with Web Expert’s WooCommerce – Galaxy Enterprise Suite interface application.

WooCommerce connection with SingularLogic Galaxy Enterprise Suite

The Galaxy Enterprise Suite bridge with WooCommerce automates complex and time-consuming management tasks and undertakes to synchronize warehouse, orders and customers between the two systems, effectively managing WooCommerce products and orders through the Galaxy Enterpriseogic Sing Enterprise .

 

For example, if you sell a product through the physical store, and record the sale in the Galaxy Enterprise Suite, the online store will be updated with the new stock quantity. The same will happen if you update your Galaxy Enterprise Suite with new products or update an existing field (description, category, availability, etc.), WooCommerce will sync automatically.

Similarly, when you sell a product through the online store, the Galaxy Enterprise Suite will be updated in real time with the order and will freeze the stock. All you have to do is collect the products, invoice the order and complete it through the Galaxy Enterprise Suite. WooCommerce will automatically update you with the new status of the order, send WooCommerce emails to the user, and activate any procedures you may have encountered.

It works "quietly"!

All functions of the bridge work automatically in the background, without interrupting the operation of the online store. Based on scheduling, various bridge functions such as inventory and price synchronization, order status changes are scheduled to run at pre-declared times via cron jobs. However, if necessary, the user can perform certain functions through the WordPress administration area.

Direct execution

The bridge works autonomously, directly through PHP, loading the minimum requirements for WordPress, ensuring uninterrupted operation, speed and performance, without burdening the e-shop.

Requirements

In order to interface Galaxy Enterprise Suite via web services, it is necessary to support the service in your Galaxy Enterprise Suite installation. If you do not know about it, you can consult your engineer. For the operation of the Galaxy Enterprise Suite web services, it is necessary that the PC or local server is in operation 24/7. Galaxy Enterprise Suite comes with all endpoints predefined. The login and password for authorization is enough to start the process. To ensure smooth operation and troubleshooting, SSH support is mandatory in the e-shop hosting package. To manually run the bridge via WordPress, support for the shell_exec() session is required

Faq

The WooCommerce to ERP bridges we build do not require additional hardware or software to be installed on Galaxy. All they need is a static IP so they can communicate via web services with it.

Importing images can be done in four ways: a) pulling from Galaxy Enterprise Suite if they are stored in it, b) uploading the photos to a folder according to some characteristic (eg 1001-1.jpg, 1001-2.jpg where the 1001 can be the item code or its ItemId, and the numbers 1, 2, 3 the order of placement of the featured image and the image collection, c) direct HTTP search on local server (with static IP) or online bucket, d ) manually through WooCommerce.

For the operation of the bridge we use building blocks of WooCommerce (WooCommerce CRUD Classes) which were created in version 3.0 of WooCommerce and will not change, even if WooCommerce proceeds with a total reconstruction of its database. This way, you are not limited to any version of WooCommerce (minimum required 3.x) and use any plugins you want. Add-on functions go hand in hand with all bridge functions.

If this is not agreed upon when building the bridge, all data from Galaxy Enterprise Suite will overwrite any changes you have made through WooCommerce. It can distinguish which fields you would like to modify through WooCommerce, which will be ignored after their initial pass through Galaxy. A field cannot be updated simultaneously by the bridge and by you, distinguishing who updated it last.

It is possible to create a bridge between WooCommerce and Galaxy Enterprise Suite, in an existing eshop, however it is very likely that all products will need to be reloaded via ERP. The product code of the products and variants should be characteristic of the ERP (code, barcode, etc.) so that this action is not needed. It is not possible to import products from WooCommerce to ERP due to many limitations from Galaxy side.

No. Since there is a bridge between WooCommerce and Galaxy Enterprise Suite, all products should exist as entries in your ERP. For example, if you only import products into WooCommerce and an order is placed, Galaxy will not be able to locate the product in its database, causing the import to fail.

No, the WooCommerce to Galaxy Enterprise Suite connection bridge cannot know any change in ERP directly. At a given time period defined during its construction it will ask Galaxy about the changes made.

The updating of products, inventory, prices and order statuses are performed at the time periods defined during the construction of the bridge. For example, updating stock/prices hourly, updating product information once a day, updating order status hourly, etc. The orders are entered into the ERP immediately.

No, except in certain cases. WooCommerce manages inventory in the database. When a sale is made online, WooCommerce will proceed to commit the inventory. The bridge will in turn update the Galaxy Enterprise Suite and commit the inventory to the warehouse. When the "inventory sync" is performed, the bridge will update WooCommerce with the inventory, which if not mediated by a physical sale will be the same. If however a physical sale has taken place, the bridge will update WooCommerce correctly with the realistic inventory. The situation that might create a problem is if a sale is made in the physical store and the stock is limited (eg 1 piece), and the "stock sync" does not have time to update WooCommerce about the new stock, in the time period defined during construction of (eg per 1 hour). During this time, an order may be placed from the online store, so if there is no stock, the order must be canceled. Due to the nature of e-commerce, when there are physical stores with high traffic, safety stock should be used.

Of course, the bridge comes with a control panel where you can perform all its functions. For their operation, however, PHP shell_exec needs to be enabled by your hosting provider.

During the planning of the bridge, the criteria and situations where the orders will be entered into the ERP are defined. For example, you may not want orders that are canceled to be imported, or orders that are on hold (bank deposit) while you want them to be imported if their status changes to processing. An order may however fail to be entered into ERP due to some ERP problem (eg item shortage, customer settings etc.) To enter orders manually, you will use the bridge control panel to view the relevant error.

For the smooth operation of the bridge, all orders must follow the path of purchasing a product through the online store, as a visitor would. This is due to specifics of WooCommerce regarding variations, calculation of shipping or other meta-data that an order needs. A new order that will be entered directly in ERP, or modification of an order in ERP (eg product removal, shoe size change, etc.) cannot be transferred to WooCommerce. Any changes should be made in WooCommerce and re-enter the order in ERP.
