Legacy ERP Integration

Your storefront is ready. Your ERP integration isn't.

The storefront is ready. Pricing, inventory and orders are not. NEKOM connects existing ERP systems to commerce with clear operational handovers.

UX and checkout are ready and products are in the store. But the connection to the established ERP holds the project back. Business questions and technical dependencies surface just before the intended launch.

THE CHALLENGE

Where everyday operations become complex.

UX and checkout are ready and products are in the store. But the connection to the established ERP holds the project back. Business questions and technical dependencies surface just before the intended launch.

  • Older ERP systems with limited or inconsistent interfaces
  • Internal IT with little capacity for bespoke store connections
  • Unclear ownership of pricing rules, customer matching and order status
  • CSV handovers and lengthy coordination as temporary workarounds

WHEN DATA TRANSFER ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH

The rules between systems matter.

A standard connector can suit clearly defined data transfers. Complexity grows when the source system has special rules, APIs are missing or teams interpret business logic differently. The project then needs a shared process model and clear ownership.

HOW NEKOM CONNECTS THE WORKFLOW

Individual systems become an aligned workflow.

NEKOM forms the operational layer between commerce and the existing ERP. Supported configuration and mapping tasks can be handled within the agreed partner scope. Data ownership, handovers and failure scenarios are defined together. Actual effort depends on ERP interfaces and business requirements; not every ERP can be connected without development.

THE ACTUAL PRODUCT

What happens after data reaches NEKOM?

Authentic NEKOM application views. The visible information is test data. These views illustrate general functions, not a named customer’s production system.

NEKOM OMS

Relevant orders in one view.

The order overview shows orders from connected channels. Search, filters and sorting support everyday handling. Status and references provide operational context.
