Getting Startedchecklist
42 questions to ask before you connect your ERP to a commerce platform.
Most ERP-commerce integration projects fail not because the technology is wrong, but because the requirements were underspecified. Use this checklist to surface the questions your vendor hasn't asked yet.
What's Inside
- Pricing architecture questions: How many price books? What triggers a price change? How are volume tiers structured? Who is authorized to modify pricing in the ERP?
- Inventory configuration questions: How many warehouse locations? Which locations serve which customers? How is branch inventory assigned? What does ATP check require?
- Customer account structure questions: What is the depth of your account hierarchy? How many buying group relationships exist? How are approval workflows currently enforced?
- Integration architecture questions: What is the ERP API access model? What are the data volume and rate limit constraints? How will the integration handle ERP downtime?
- Customization and extensibility questions: What business rules need to be custom-implemented? How have previous platform customizations been managed through upgrades?
- Go-live and operational readiness questions: Who owns the integration in production? What is the monitoring and alerting model? How are pricing and inventory discrepancies handled?
