Taking Advantage of Growth Opportunities and Scalability

Benefits of a WooCommerce and Oracle EBS Integration

WooCommerce and Oracle EBS integration can ensure robust automation of processes concerning order fulfillment updates, products, and categories, customer sinking funds, addresses, etc.

The Oracle EBS system or eBusiness suite system offers multiple methods for integration. The most common method for some of the recent versions of Oracle EBS is to use the rest services. Now, the rest services expose the rest endpoints in multiple ways.

After that, using the default API or customized interfaces, the Oracle eBusiness suite provides access to any of the entities and fields within its system.

You can pull in everything: products and product categories, variants, inventory information, different warehouse locations, metadata for products, customer-specific pricing, dimension, and weight of a product, et cetera.

It also allows access to product and category data which can be very detailed. Fortunately, all these details can be pushed or pulled into your WooCommerce dynamically.

It is also possible to bring out orders from Oracle EBS into WooCommerce. So order data concerning quotes or purchases is visible even if those purchases did not originate inside of WooCommerce. It allows users to complete purchases or quote requests and turn them into cart items or orders.

It is possible to pull in specific customer information from Oracle. This includes:

  • Customer addresses: both billing and shipping location
  • Any location-specific terms and policies: such as how a customer can purchase, who can purchase, how much do items cost depending on the location.
  • Tax rates: according to location or any tax exemptions a customer may have
Intelligent Integrations Made Possible by The Clarity Connect Tool

Clarity Connect Platform

The tool we use to integrate Oracle EBS and WooCommerce is the Clarity Connect Platform.

Whenever Clarity has to do an integration between Oracle EBS and WooCommerce, we utilize our connect platform. It is an enterprise-class cue-based task system where each task is persistent. It keeps logs and details. If there is a failure or an issue with any status, it will provide notification and updates.

However, the Oracle EBS to WooCommerce integration also relies on the WooCommerce API. Fortunately, the Clarity Connect platform can work with all the different versions of the WooCommerce APIs, including the legacy API.

The default is to use the rest APIs, which are incorporated into the WordPress APIs. So they have the same authentication as the WordPress API. You can also add more functionality to the WooCommerce integrations, including plugins or extensions, security tools, etc. that might be a part of WordPress.

The Clarity connect platform does all the heavy lifting with the integration. It should be behind a hardware firewall or another security mechanism to ensure robust security for the application.

Our connect platform is scalable. It is capable of redundant configurations which is why we call it an enterprise-class solution. The platform can also automate each and every smaller task of different types of workflows.

WooCommerce APIs

On the WooCommerce side of things, you can leverage essentially any of the APIs that are available off the shelf. If necessary, you can add extensions according to the needs of your business.

Some of the core APIs we typically integrate with include:

Customer Data: coupons, account information, orders, order notes, refunds, etc.

Product Data: products, product variations, product attributes, product attribute terms, product categories, product shipping classes, product tags, product reviews

Order Information: the reporting tools and granular reporting data, tax rates, tax classes, settings, setting options, payment gateways, shipping zones, shipping zone locations, shipping zone methods, shipping methods, system's status, etc.

Business Logic

One of the most powerful things about the Clarity Connect platform is that it caters to each business's logic. It customizes tasks accordingly. So data transmission occurs according to the priority of each task.

A lot of times clients have really specific business logic. Naturally, they want to apply it to their Oracle EBS integration to WooCommerce as well. The Clarity Connect Platform has an architecture that enables the different business logic of each client. It allows extensions and customizations.

So the client's team can easily collaborate with Clarity to constantly improve their system.

Additionally, it is also possible to extend the integrations to cover more tasks and more entities. So as the business grows, you can automate more and more processes according to the particular needs of the business.

Webhooks

Moreover, we can also set up webhooks. These allow you to interact with WooCommerce in real-time. You get live information on the activity that is occurring within WooCommerce.

If a client requests it, we can also set up a similar real-time integration with Oracle EBS. However, it is not necessary to set up real-time integration for all the data going between the WooCommerce and Oracle EBS integration. But for some specific scenarios such as event booking, inventory, and customer-specific pricing data, it can be beneficial to have real-time data. And it is certainly something that is possible with the Clarity Connect platform and webhooks within WooCommerce.
