Introducing the Alumio Route Builder
Now connect, orchestrate, and govern integrations at scale from one visual interface
Contract pricing held in SAP ECC reaches a Shopify storefront at the moment a logged-in customer asks for it, so a negotiated agreement survives the trip to a webshop without being approximated.
A Shopify storefront prices per market and per price list, which is exactly right for retail and has nowhere to put a customer's negotiated agreement. SAP ECC resolves that agreement through its pricing conditions when the request is made, so the figure does not really exist until somebody asks for it. Publishing a static price loses the logic that produced it, and publishing every combination is not a catalog. The SAP ECC - R/3 to Shopify integration asks ECC at the point the price is shown, so a contract customer sees their own price and nobody maintains a copy of it.
DATA THAT FLOWS BETWEEN THEM
Customer accounts
Pricing conditions
Contract prices
Order records
Stock availability
Order status
A logged-in customer's negotiated figure is requested from SAP ECC when the page needs it, so the storefront shows the agreement rather than the closest published price.
Nobody keeps a parallel table of customer prices in the webshop, because the figure is resolved where the conditions live rather than exported and refreshed on a schedule.
Anonymous visitors continue to see the published Shopify price, so adding contract pricing for logged-in accounts does not disturb how the storefront sells to everybody else.
Each Shopify order posts into SAP ECC with the customer and pricing it was placed against, so finance is not reconciling a webshop total against a differently priced document.
A trade customer signs in and opens a product. Alumio requests the price from SAP ECC for that account, so the page shows the figure their agreement entitles them to rather than the list price everyone else sees.
A Shopify order is paid and Alumio creates the SAP ECC document with its customer, lines and the pricing the order was placed against, so fulfilment runs from the ERP rather than from a webshop export somebody downloads.
Stock availability from SAP ECC reaches the Shopify product page on a schedule you control, so the storefront stops promising stock the warehouse has already committed to somebody else earlier in the same trading week.
Alumio sits between sales channels and fulfillment systems as a governed integration backbone. Orders are routed, transformed, and validated, while status updates return to every channel.
Authenticate your systems using Alumio's pre-built connectors. Choose from 200+ connector packages in the marketplace, plus unlimited custom integrations.
Define how data fields map between systems in a visual interface. Adjust formats, enrich records, and apply business logic, no custom code required.
Configure flows to run in real time on events, on a schedule, or both. Reduce manual data entry and let Alumio handle movement and transformation between systems.

Once your first integration is live, adding your ERP, PIM, WMS, or CRM connects to the same hub. Existing flows keep running. No rebuilding from scratch.
A shipping and carrier service is the common addition, because once orders post cleanly the next manual job is dispatch and the tracking reference a customer wants to see. Alumio holds those connections centrally and reuses the SAP ECC order mapping already configured, so a shipment updates both the ERP document and the Shopify order.
Yes, and pricing is the one that should not be a copy. Alumio can act as an API gateway and request a customer's price from SAP ECC live, at the moment the storefront needs it, rather than publishing a figure and refreshing it later. Orders travel the other way as they are placed, and availability on a schedule you control.
No, this is configured rather than coded. Price conditions, customer groups and the Shopify accounts they belong to are mapped once in Alumio, which replaces the export routine that customer pricing in a webshop usually depends on. For a pricing rule the mapping cannot express, the Code Transformer takes custom logic inside the flow.
Theirs, resolved at the moment they ask for it. SAP ECC works pricing out through conditions when the request is made, so a negotiated figure is not a stored number waiting to be published. Alumio can request it live for a logged-in customer, which is why the agreement reaches the storefront intact rather than as an approximation somebody keeps up to date by hand.
A confirmation the customer already has, for an order still sitting unposted, is the failure worth preventing, because the storefront has promised something the ERP never accepted. Alumio monitors each posting live and logs the order it was carrying, so an order SAP ECC refuses alerts immediately with the reason, usually a customer or a pricing condition that could not be resolved. Retries run automatically where configured, so nothing is quietly left unbooked.
