Does CIAMA replace our ERP or WMS?+
No. CIAMA is a multichannel cockpit connecting commercial data and operations. Accounting, business administration and warehouse execution stay in the systems designed for those jobs. The responsibilities of each system are defined at the start.
Can we connect an ERP without a standard connector?+
CIAMA’s inbound API supports catalog, inventory and B2B data independently of any ERP brand. Integration requires a review of access, formats, versions and business mappings. Custom development may be needed; having an API does not make every ERP a plug-and-play connection.
Can CIAMA already send orders to our ERP?+
Sending orders from CIAMA to an ERP is part of the planned offering but has not yet been delivered. It is separate from collecting orders into CIAMA. The project defines the ERP, data to transfer and status handling.
Are all exchanges automatic and real-time?+
No. Triggers, frequency and tracking depend on the flow and the constraints of each API. Some exchanges are scheduled, others asynchronous or action-driven. Outbound stock updates for Shopify/Wix remain planned; they are separate from supported marketplace updates.
How can we start without disrupting operations?+
Start with one priority exchange, an identified source and a limited scope. Define mapping rules, failure scenarios and acceptance criteria before activation. Further flows and custom requirements can then join the project roadmap.
