Connection to Shopify and possibly ABAS ERP possible?

Written by: @s-zimmermann

We would like to know if there is a way to run your ERP software with a Shopify online store. As far as I have seen, you offer several other store systems, but so far no Shopify.

Hello Mrs. Zimmermann,

The REST API interface integrated in gFM-Business Basic and Professional can be expanded to include any store system. As Shopify also provides a REST API interface, Shopify can therefore be easily integrated into the interface. However, an interface for the upcoming version 8 is already being developed specifically for Shopify. When you purchase the software, you currently also automatically receive a serial number for the future version 8, which will also include an interface for Shopify by the end of 2024.

And we might want to transfer orders and customers from ABAS, is this also possible without a detour via exports?

The ABAS ERP software also contains a REST API and can therefore be connected directly to gFM-Business and FileMaker via an interface. In our FileMaker info area, we have written instructions on how to Connecting FileMaker and gFM-Business to ABAS ERP can.

We have our own capacity to adapt the database later. Are there any training courses on FileMaker and your product?

In the custom and open licenses, the gFM-Business ERP software contains complete internal documentation of all standards, tables, fields and scripts, which can also be searched in the software's developer module using a full-text search. 

When it comes to deepening your knowledge of FileMaker database development and extending gFM-Business, we have a FileMaker Crash Course published. In twenty chapters you will learn the basics of developing and customizing FileMaker database apps and gFM Business ERP software.

Hello Mr. Schall!

Thank you for your quick response, we will get back to you soon!
