Let’s talk about how we can build your commerce project — tailored to your business, powered by Rigby
In B2B eCommerce, the ERP (enterprise resource planning) system is the center of financial records.
It holds the pricing, the inventory levels, the customer credit limits, the payment terms, the order history, and the financial data that drives the entire business.
Every eCommerce transaction needs to communicate with the ERP data to pull the right price, check available stock, validate credit, and push the completed order back for fulfillment and invoicing.
When this B2B eCommerce ERP integration works, the ERP and eCommerce website operate as a single system from the buyer's perspective.
When it does not work (and it frequently does not), the result is data discrepancies, order errors, and a growing layer of manual reconciliation that silently consumes operations bandwidth.
Gartner reports that 70% of implemented ERP projects fail to meet business goals, with broken data handoffs cited as a primary cause.

Identify where ERP integration risk originates and if it impacts your business processes, inventory management, or customer data.
