Product Release date: 23rd October 2017
Product Release version: 3.6.0
With fall closing in, APPSeCONNECT welcomes you with yet another brand new release and with lots of new and anticipated features. We continued with our never ending quest of bringing innovation closer to your expectation.
Some of them are merely adding up to the solution while some are improving the capabilities of the product. As a partner you would love to see what all changes we made during this period that were added to the platform.
Let us have a quick look at the features which are freshly added to the solution:
What’s New in Cloud
Sequencer in Workflow
In some applications, the ability to process information in specific order is important or is a business need and you see the APIs provided by the application does not support such case. In those scenarios, proper data sequencing is needed to ensure that information delivered to the receiving application to be in an order. Taking this business need into account, we have improved the way of workflow by adding Sequencer to it. Sequencer is an independent process property which can sequence your data after your API is already responded which eliminates the need of customization in the application itself.
You can now add Sequencer node and lineup the items that you intend to transfer from one application to another based on a specific field. For example, while syncing a customer if you get multiple addresses you can sequence the addresses alphabetically. You can also sort business partner data as per their id with the help of sequencer node.
Activity Tracker
In this release, we also present you with Activity Tracker, which will help you in tracking APPSeCONNECT activities of Trial and LIVE customers. It will keep you updated about the synchronization status between your chosen application such as project state, when the last sync happened and what was the sync volume and when the project will get expired etc. So, with this feature on, you can keep an eye on sync activities at anytime from anywhere. This feature comes very handy to implementation partners and ISV partner to constantly track the customers.
What’s New in Agent
Independent Access of Agent Activities from Cloud
Now, you can view Agent specific real time information in cloud using Auto Sync service only without the need of keeping the Agent open in your on-premise. This improvisation has reduced memory consumption issue to a great extent, as it has curtailed application’s dependency on more than one process at a time.
Independent Auto Sync of Real Time touch-points
In the same line, we have also improvised the real-time touchpoints execution process by enabling them to run independently via auto sync service. They can now be executed even when APPSeCONNECT Agent is off.
Integrations
On Integration precinct, we not only worked on improving existing connectors but also introduced new connectors strengthening our extensive list of integration solution.
Let’s have a quick look on our latest additions:
SAP B1 and Magento 2.0 B2B Integrations
In our earlier releases, we brought Magento B2B extension with credible features. This time, we extended that support by providing its integration with our core ERP solution, that is SAP B1. This connector has been worked upon considering growing business needs for automating information sync specifically to cater B2B customers and providing them a competitive edge in the current market.
Here are the integration points:
- Contact Person Sync
- Sales Representative Sync
- Configurable Product Sync
- Customer Sync
- Tier Price Sync from SAP B1 to Magento2
- Order Sync from Magent2 to SAP B1
- Shipment Sync
- Pricelist Sync from SAP B1 to Magento2
Other than the above basic integration, we have also enhanced the capability of this integration solution by allowing sync of linked products mainly upsell, cross-sell and related products along with parent simple products and configurable products from SAP B1. This feature has catered the business need of customers who want to manage their products from their ERP. Now, SAP B1 users can easily set upsell, cross sell and related products and that can be synced to Magento.
Dynamics AX and Magento B2C Integrations
Another new offering adding up to our list of integration solution, is Dynamics AX and Magento B2C connector. MS Dynamics AX integration can be considered as one of the most practical choice for anyone who wants to simplify their complex business operation by accurately syncing information in no time.
APPSeCONNECT currently supports one-way integration from Magento to Dynamics AX:
- Product Sync
- Customer Sync
- Sales Order Sync
NAV Generic and Shopify Integrations
Though we have already provided our customer with NAV and Shopify integration solution earlier. This time, we revamped NAV Adapter again and made it more generic, so that business users can have the ease to connect any version of NAV with their application through APPSeCONNECT platform.
We have covered almost all the integration points, which we have earlier offered in its predecessor:
- Customer Sync
- Product Sync
- Sales Order Sync from Shopify to NAV
- Variant Price Update from NAV to Shopify
- Inventory Update from NAV to Shopify
- Shipment Sync
