PrestaShop and Sage 100: connecting your store and ERP

Running a PrestaShop store alongside Sage 100 can create synchronisation problems: manual order re-entry, inconsistent stock figures, duplicate customers and conflicting prices. A connector Prestashop Sage 100 removes this friction by automating data exchanges between your online shop and ERP.

The problem: the double input between Prestashop and Sage 100

Without connectors, teams that manage both a Prestashop and a ERP Sage 100 store must:

• Manually re-entering each online order in Sage 100
• Update Prestashop stocks after each physical sale or out of stock
• Keep the product records up to date in both systems
• Manage prices and promotions in duplicate
• Manually synchronize order status

This double entry is not only time-consuming but also generates errors: forgotten orders, stockouts not indicated on the shop side, incorrect prices displayed.

PrestaConnect: the PrestaShop–Sage 100 connector from Alternetis

Prestaconnect is the e-commerce connector developed by Alternetis to synchronize Prestashop with Sage 100. It is a real-time synchronisation of all the flows between the two systems.

E-commerce orders → Sage 100

• Automatic import of Prestashop orders in Sage 100 (order records or quote)
• Payment methods, carriers and delivery addresses
• Synchronising order statuses between the two systems
• Credit note and returns management

Catalogue and articles

• Synchronization of Sage 100 to Prestashop product sheets
• Automatic updating of prices, descriptions and images
• Management of variations (sizes, colors, variants)
• Synchronization of product categories and attributes

Real-time stocks

The synchronization of stocks is one of the most critical aspects of e-commerce. PrestaConnect updates available quantities in PrestaShop whenever stock moves in Sage 100. Customers can no longer order out-of-stock items, and stockout alerts can be configured.

Client Management B2B

Prestaconnect supports Prestashop B2B stores with customer account management, customer discount and customized price catalogues from Sage 100. A B2B customer who connects to the store sees its specific prices directly.

Why choose Prestaconnect instead of a generic connector?

Prestaconnect has been developed and maintained internally by Alternetis teams for many years. Unlike generic connectors available on the Prestashop:

• Sage 100-based connection : no third-party middleware and no dependency on an external cloud service
• Maintenance : updates compatible with the new versions of Sage 100 and Prestashop
• Customization : Alternetis can adapt the connector to your specific business rules
• French-language support : a team based in France, available to solve your problems

Use case: an SME that synchronizes 500 orders/month

An SME processing 500 online orders a month previously spent 2 hours a day re-entering orders in Sage 100. After deploying PrestaConnect, this task is fully automated. Stock is synchronised every 15 minutes, the shop’s displayed stockout rate has fallen to zero, and sales teams can see online orders in Sage 100 in real time.

Alternetis has been developing and maintaining Prestaconnect for over 10 years. Contact our teams for a custom demonstration adapted to your Prestashop and Sage 100 configuration.
