How does the Exact Online - Magento Trade connector work?

With the iWeb connector between Magento 2 and Exact Online Trade you no longer have to worry about manual administration. All your customer, order, product and stock data is synchronised, so you keep control of your business and save time on repetitive work.

What exactly does the connector do?

Our Magento 2 – Exact Online Trade connector ensures a complete and error-free exchange of data between your webshop and your administration. This happens fully automatically, so you always stay up to date and save time.

1. Customers & contacts

When a customer places an order in Magento 2, all relevant customer details are recorded directly as a relation and contact in Exact Online. Think of:

• Company name, name and address details
• E-mail and phone number

Advantage:
You always have a complete and up-to-date customer database in Exact Online, without manual entry. This prevents errors and speeds up your invoicing and reporting processes.

2. Products & product information

New products that you add in Magento 2 appear automatically in Exact Online. Changes to product information or prices are synchronised as well. On the first order with shipping costs, a shipping item (“Shipment”) is created automatically.

• SKU and product ID → item code
• Description, prices and item groups
• Always the correct prices and stock positions

Advantage:
You do not have to enter product data twice and you prevent differences between your webshop and administration. Prices and descriptions are consistent everywhere.

3. Orders & sales orders

When an order is completed in Magento 2, it is created automatically as a sales order in Exact Online:

• All order lines, products and quantities are taken over
• Automatic connection to the correct customer and the correct delivery address
• Prices, shipping costs and any discounts are fully included
• Automatic assignment of the correct VAT code

Advantage:
Your orders are immediately ready for further processing in your bookkeeping. No more manual entry, minimal chance of errors and a balanced administration.

4. Stock & availability

Exact Online always determines the current stock position of each item. Every change in stock (through sales, purchasing or correction) is synchronised automatically to Magento 2, usually within a few minutes.

• Your webshop always shows the correct stock
• No risk of selling out due to outdated stock levels

Advantage:
Your customers always see the current stock, which leads to better customer satisfaction and less chance of disappointment or lost revenue.

5. VAT, payment terms & more

The connector supports common VAT scenarios. The payment terms, references and other administrative fields are also taken over correctly.

In summary

The connector makes sure that customer, product, order and stock data is always synchronised between your webshop and Exact Online. This way you work more efficiently, without errors, and you keep more time for your business.
