Integrations

The need for integration arises when deficiencies in an existing system's functionality are identified. Using two methods is a time-consuming and inefficient solution over a more extended period. Combining multiple systems into one entity saves valuable time and simplifies the amount of manual work. An example of the coordination of the two systems is the integration of the ordering and billing systems. In this case, the ordering system automatically transfers the order data directly to the billing system, from which the system automatically sends the invoice to the customer. Technical integration may arise if a part of the system is obsolete or a new update is no longer compatible with the current system. Due to the time delay in data transfer, e-commerce balances may conflict with actual inventory values. The product ordered by the customer from the online store may be sold out, even if the product still appears in the store's catalog. It is time to consider software integration to avoid unnecessary frustration and additional costs for the customer and the company. With functional integration, the software stays up-to-date and is easier to maintain in the future.
