Integrating the E-commerce platform with the ERP system is the basis of automation with any E-commerce project. This time, we have taken the integration of the E-commerce Shopware 6 platform with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central ERP to the test. This integration responds to the challenges that every growing E-commerce company faces.

Why? Because in every transaction – from order to invoice – there is a vast amount of data that, combined in one place, can change the way you manage your entire business. For many companies, such integration is even becoming an essential part of their strategy, allowing faster response to changes, more accurate analysis, more personalized customer service, and process optimization.

Notably, integration can be pursued at any stage. It can be a key step when migrating to a new platform, but it can also be a great solution for companies that are already using Shopware 6 and want to improve the efficiency of their store. Sometimes integration can even completely replace existing, unfulfilling system connections. This approach not only allows you to better organize your resources but most importantly to focus on growing your sales.

When we looked at the solutions available on the market for integrating Shopware with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, we quickly noticed a lack of truly functional options. Most of the off-the-shelf integrations were either too limited or not tailored to our customers’ specific needs. In a dynamic E-commerce environment, such compromises can cost time, resources, and most importantly, the customer experience.

We decided to develop a solution that would respond to the specific business requirements of our partners. Instead of template functions, we opted for a personalized approach that takes into account the nature of the client’s work. We analyzed the challenges they faced and, step by step, created a system that realistically supports their processes.

Our Shopware and Microsoft Dynamics 365 solution is a full set of features that support your daily E-commerce operations. Each is designed to connect key processes and make them run smoothly and without unnecessary interruptions.

Order processing – Automating the transfer of order data from Shopware to Business Central is key to the smooth processing of every order. All order information is automatically transferred, so employees don’t have to manually enter data or worry about errors. Logistics processes and order processing become smoother and less time-consuming, which has a direct impact on customer satisfaction.

Customer information – Customer data is centralized, allowing for accurate and easily accessible reports and personalization of the offer. As a result, each customer is treated individually and the company has a more complete picture of their preferences and purchase history. The ability to quickly view customer data is also a major benefit in creating marketing and sales strategies that address the real needs of the audience.

Documentation – Invoices, delivery documents, and other sales documents are synchronized automatically, making the accounting and transaction handling process fast and reliable. All documents are generated and transmitted without manual handling, which minimizes the risk of mistakes and speeds up order processing. This is a convenient solution for any company that values order and time savings.

Inventory management – Stocks are updated in real-time, which allows full inventory control. As soon as a sale is made, the system immediately reflects inventory changes, which protects against accidental over-ordering and reduces the risk of selling products that are no longer available. As a result, customers can count on the fact that the offer is always up to date, and the company avoids problems with order fulfillment.

Synchronization of product data – Integration enables easy management of product data, which is automatically synchronized between systems. Any changes – from price updates to description modifications – immediately appear in both places, so customers see the current offer without delay. This ensures that the store is always compliant with the latest data, and the team doesn’t waste time on manual updates.

Customized pricing solutions – Our integration supports different pricing models for individual customers, which works especially well for large customers or loyalty programs. Special pricing can be set directly in Business Central, and the system automatically transfers this data to Shopware, where it is visible to customers. This flexible solution allows you to tailor your offerings to the needs of individual segments and build more personal relationships with customers.

Our integration between Shopware 6 and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is not a typical ready-to-use solution right after installation. It’s a tool we built to fit the specific needs of each company. Every E-commerce store operates differently, so our solution needs to be individually tailored to each one. For this reason, our integration is highly customizable and allows you to tailor each element to your business and operational requirements.

An example of this approach is our partnership with NAV24, where we have introduced customized pricing models for selected customers. In traditional solutions, setting up personalized pricing can be complicated, but with our integration, it is possible to quickly tailor pricing to specific customer groups. NAV24 needed just the flexibility to customize pricing and implement a tailored solution for their company. This allows our customers to serve the diverse purchasing needs of their customers while maintaining full control over pricing and offerings.

Our integration between Shopware and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central brings tangible business benefits that translate into better operational performance and a positive customer experience.

Operational efficiency – Automating processes such as order processing and inventory management allows companies to process orders more accurately and faster. Instead of wasting time on manual updates and risking errors, teams can focus on strategic operations. In practice, this means less downtime, less risk of mistakes, and more control over daily operations.

Better customer experience – Centralizing customer data gives the company full visibility into each customer’s purchase history and preferences. This, in turn, paves the way for more personalized marketing and offers tailored to specific audiences. Customers feel their needs are understood and the company can respond to their expectations – which builds loyalty and increases the chances of repeat purchases.

Seamless data flow – The combination of Shopware and Business Central ensures a seamless exchange of information between systems, reducing the risk of errors and streamlining daily operations. All key data, from orders to inventory updates, is synchronized in real-time. This allows the team to work efficiently without worrying about inconsistent information, and customers can count on accurate service.

All in all, integrating Shopware with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a solution that not only streamlines daily operations but also makes a real difference to business growth. Automation of key processes, centralization of customer data, and seamless flow of information allow companies to operate faster and more strategically. This gives E-commerce a new dimension, tailored to the expectations of modern customers and ready for the challenges of a dynamic market.
