Drupal and Magento: a perfect combination

The project needed a mature e-commerce functionality and an advanced content management system. Therefore, the power of two platforms was combined: Magento and Drupal!

With a seamless front-end integration of both platforms, a powerful online system was created:

  • Recommended Magento products are shown in Drupal blocks.
  • Each newsletter registration on the Drupal side is pushed directly to Magento.
  • Drupal and Magento search combined in one handy search box
  • Integrated customer menu

SAP and bpost synchronization

Synchronization with the ERP system SAP enables Thuiszorgwinkel to reduce overhead and create a unique shopping experience. Products are imported from the SAP environment to the Magento platform. After additional product enrichment online, the products are pushed to the frontend. Customer-specific prices are updated in SAP and synchronised with Magento. Orders and product stock are periodically updated between the e-commerce platform and the ERP system. The synchronization with SAP and the integration with the bpost shipping manager allows Thuiszorgwinkel to obtain an efficient e-commerce strategy.
