7 NEW - CRM Integration Sage ERP 1000 v4 is an ERP solution that can be used either as a standalone ERP system or as part of a system with an ERP solution that integrates with Sage CRM. The integration for Sage ERP 1000 v4 is loosely coupled, meaning the ERP and CRM application are installed and used separately. The integration allows key data items to be maintained in either application but reflected in both, it also provides enhanced functionality around key business processes. This is different from earlier versions of Sage 1000 (v2.2 and v2.3 releases) where a tight coupling merged the functionality of the two applications into a single user interface. The benefits of the loosely coupled approach are: –The integrated products can be upgraded independently so you can take advantage of product development independently. –The integrated products can be licenced independently, users that only use Sage CRM do not need a Sage ERP 1000 licence and vice versa Synchronised, accurate, up to date data, providing a 360 degree view of your business

8 Sage CRM Sage ERP 1000 Creation of Customer Records in both CRM and ERP Creation of Marketing Lists Manage Sales Opportunities Handling Requests for Quotes Handling Order Requests Managing order Fulfilment Managing Invoicing and Payment Handling Customer Enquiries & Complaints Handling Customer Returns Managing Credit Control & Aged Debt Managing the Sales Pipeline Provision of Information for Analysis Customer records will be created in ERP or CRM and using the existing sData method of synchronisatio n according to the GCRM contract. This functionality already exists in CRM; ERP data will be made available to feed into this process This functionality already exists in CRM, no development required. The CRM system contains functionality to manage customer calls/ complaints. The ERP system may hold additional information that will assist in the resolution but these will be ad-hoc requests for information, no additional ERP development required. this process This functionality already exists in CRM, no development required. this process Quotes will only be created in CRM; they will not be passed to ERP and therefore not visible to ERP only users. Quotes will use a rewritten pricing service to accurately price the quote in a timely manner and with appropriate base currency Orders have a one way synch from ERP to CRM using the classic v4 GCRM integration and then Pop the user back to the ERP system showing the actual order to enable understanding of order fulfilment and tracking. As all orders will be ERP side only the full ERP SOP functionality will be available. No development required. As changes to orders occur ( e.g status) this information will be synchronised back to CRM Create a button in the context of a customer record in CRM that pops the Sage 1000 transactions enquiry. All of the functionality required exists in part of each system. For example the customer will call and log their query with CRM, but they will need to access ERP to process the return or credit note. This access to ERP will be made easier from the CRM system e.g. Popping the Start point of Credit Notes/ Returns This is ERP only functionality however some improvements are required and these should be included in estimates. Surfacing of ERP information onto CRM Dashboards Surfacing of ERP Information into CRM Reporting Surfacing of ERP Information into CRM for extraction and manipulation Possibly out of scope for initial release Sage ERP 1000 v4 delivers loosely coupled integration for Sage CRM, through a combination of Synchronisation, Pricing Service and customisation

9 Sage ERP 1000 v4: Synchronisation, the process of transferring data between ERP & CRM so that the source and target data are in sync. Both ERP & CRM use SData web service triggered by HTTP requests for sync.
