No ERP? Or Not Ready to Integrate One? No Problem. You Still Have Options.

If your company doesn’t use an ERP system — or prefers not to fully set up an integration with one — you can still use App4Sales sales app and our B2B webshop to digitize your B2B sales process. We offer three flexible ways to work with your data, depending on your technical setup and level of automation.

Three Integration Options Without a Traditional ERP Connection

1. CSV/XLSX File Exchange (Simple & Manual)
The easiest way to get started, especially if you’re already working with spreadsheets. Using our CMS, we import and export data through nightly file exchanges of CSV or XLSX files:

  • Imports: Product data, prices, stock levels, and customer info
  • Exports: Orders and newly created customer data

Perfect for businesses looking for a low-barrier entry into digital order management.


2. FTP/XML Integration (Automated File Exchange)

Want a more automated flow without a direct ERP link? We offer an FTP-based setup with XML files and a defined folder structure.

  • Store your Items, Customers, Item Pictures (optional), and Order History (optional) on the FTP server
  • We handle both imports and exports (orders and new customers)
  • We provide the file formats and folder setup to make integration smooth

This is ideal for companies looking for less manual work, without full API development.


3. REST/JSON API (Most Advanced & Real-Time)

Looking for the most extensive and real-time integration? Create your own REST API in JSON format to connect directly with App4Sales and the B2B webshop.

  • Offers nearly all available functionality in our software
  • Supports real-time syncing of product data, prices, customers, translations, and more
  • You decide which fields to use and what to push/pull
  • Full documentation available for your developers

We recommend this option for businesses with technical resources who want a scalable, custom-built connection.

Why Use App4Sales?

Having a good system for managing orders, products, and customer information is critical to a successful sales process. Therefore, by using our sales app and B2B webshop you automate and optimize the entire sales process.

As a result, your sales team and B2B customers will have access to information on products, orders, and customer data. This makes it easy to manage orders, products, and customers – both in the app and through the webshop.

How the Standalone App4Sales Setup Works

Even without an ERP system, you can still connect the App4Sales B2B sales app and B2B webshop to your data with our integration alternatives. Instead of real-time ERP integration, we offer three flexible options for syncing product, order, and customer information: XLSX/CSV file import/export, FTP/XML automation, or a custom REST/JSON API to keep your data in sync across systems.

  • Orders: Orders placed through the sales app or webshop can be exported as XLSX or CSV files, or sent via FTP or API, depending on your setup. This lets you process and manage orders without an ERP connection.
  • Products, Stock and Prices: You can provide up-to-date product information, pricing, and stock levels through spreadsheets, automated file uploads to FTP, or a real-time API. This data is then shown directly in the sales app and webshop.
  • Customers: Customer details are imported and kept up-to-date using the method that fits your setup, simple spreadsheets, structured XML files, or live API calls, so your sales team always has accurate information on hand.

Whether you choose simple file imports using XLSX or CSV, scheduled file transfers via FTP/XML, or a full REST/JSON API, your data is synchronized with our App4Sales Content Management System (CMS). This keeps the sales app and webshop connected to your latest product and customer information, ready to use on mobile, tablet, or online.

Benefits of a Standalone or Semi-Integrated Setup

There are many benefits of the connection that optimize your sales process and customer management. Below are just a few. For more information and benefits of using our specific solutions, read more about the sales app and B2B webshop.

  • Simple order placement: Orders flow from the app or webshop into your systems via export files, FTP, or REST API.
  • Up-to-date data: Sync your product info, pricing, and customer details using the method that fits your business. 
  • Improved efficiency: Minimize manual errors, reduce double entry, and enable digital workflows.
  • Custom-fit integrations: Choose the option that aligns with your resources and IT capabilities.

These flexible setup options enables an ERP-free integration of the Sales App and B2B Webshop, so you can digitize your sales process without needing a full ERP system.

System Requirements and Compatibility

If you’re working with file-based setups such as CSV/XLSX or FTP/XML, you’ll need to follow the file format and folder structure guidelines we provide to ensure a smooth import and export process. For the REST API integration, developer access is required, and we offer detailed documentation outlining all available functionality and technical requirements. 

Our flexible options make it easy to set up a B2B sales integration without ERP, so you can still connect your systems and manage orders efficiently.

To get the best use out of the sales app, you need an iOS device with at least iOS 10 or an Android device with at least Android 6.0.

Contact us to learn more about the specific system requirements for the setup.
