Promoting SalesLogix Order to Accpac ERP
Order entry integration is one of the major features which will be introduced in our GUMUTM integration link where SalesLogix User would be able to promote Sales Order from SalesLogix in Accpac ERP. For that purpose, the SalesLogix Sales Order Details screen will be modified to have some of the field information (please refer the sections marked in Red Boxes in below screen) which are of vital importance when one promotes Order in Accpac ERP.
Once the necessary information is entered on the Sales Order screen in SalesLogix, User can promote the respective Sales Order by clicking on Promote Order option as shown in the below screen. Warning message will be displayed if the Customer is On Hold or Customer Credit Limit exceeds in Accpac in such case user can cancel the order promotion.
While promoting an Order in Accpac ERP, if that particular option is checked in Accpac, GUMU™ will display an O/E Credit Check screen (please refer the below screen) where SalesLogix User will need to enter necessary information to authorize the Credit Limit for a particular Customer and then need to click on the Proceed button to process the Order.
Once the Order is successfully promoted in Accpac, GUMU™ updates certain information (i.e. marked in Red boxes in below screen) back in SalesLogix.
GUMU for Saleslogix-Accpac is also integrated with SLX web client. So now you will be able to view the Accpac data in SLX over the web. Lookout for the next blog.
