xTupleCommerce is a customer-facing web portal for xTuple ERP, giving your business partners and retail customers direct self-service capability and 24/7 access, from anywhere in the world. Offering this type of access to your partners and customers helps you build and sustain your relationships with them, increasing efficiencies, and driving revenue growth. In addition, the product's unique design allows information to flow back and forth between the ERP and the portal in real time. What you see in one place is what you see in the other. No more daily or hourly updates required to keep the data on your website and the data in your ERP in sync. xTupleCommerce is always connected, always up-to-date, all the time.

Here are some of the key features you will find in xTupleCommerce:

Connection to the ERP is managed through an application programming interface (API). More specifically, the connection is managed by a REST API. This technology allows information to flow seamlessly and uninterrupted between the portal and the ERP in real time. For example, if product data changes in the ERP (e.g., pricing updates), the changes will be revealed instantaneously on the portal. Likewise, once a user has finished checking out, their order immediately shows up in the ERP's list of open sales orders.

xTupleCommerce also includes an advanced access and permission level system. You can control who can see what. Some customers are happy allowing 100% of the public to see products and place orders. Other customers want to authenticate each of their customers before they can see the catalog. Again, xTupleCommerce is flexible enough to handle these different scenarios. To learn more about user permissions on an xTupleCommerce portal, see Section 2.1, “User Roles and Permissions”.

We're confident that xTupleCommerce will provide an exceptional user experience for you and your customers, while increasing efficiency throughout your organization. The system will make it easier for your consumer and business customers to research products, see their customer-specific prices, place orders and manage their account information.
