External Logistic allows you to automatically ensure synchronisation between Magento / ERP and your logistic company. Every product, your stock, orders and purchasing information are synchronised using scheduled streams. Everything is done automatically, you just have to use Magento and ERP as you are used to doing and our External Logistic package will ensure synchronisation.

The extension manages the following streams :

Products

When a new product is created in Magento, it is automatically sent to the logistic company to synchronise their catalogue

Sales order

When a new order is placed, once it is invoiced (paid), our extension will send all order information to the logistic company with an invoice and packing slip. The system will only send the order when it is completely fulfilled ensuring stock levels are enough to be able to process order.

Shipping confirmation

When a logistics company confirms shipping, we create shipment in Magento, a store tracking number and send a shipment email to customer.

Purchase orders

When you change purchase order status to "waiting for delivery", information is sent back to the logistics company so that they are aware of the products that are expected and also the estimated delivery date

Purchase orders deliveries

When logistic company confirms a PO delivery, we will automatically update the Purchase Order in ERP and also create stock movement to update stock levels.

Stock movements

If an unexpected stock movement is created ( for example: when a logistics company finds an error or there is a damaged product), stock movement is created in Magento to keep your stock up to date.

Inventory

Every week, we can schedule an inventory stream to ensure that stock levels in Magento match your stock levels in your warehouse.
