Use Cases:
We work with various system integrators to integrate with the Akaun Platform in the following scenarios:
E-Commerce
E-commerce system providers would usually integrate to synchronize the following:
Product Information
E-Commerce would pull the latest item code from Akaun Platform, as the latest information (e.g., pricing, promotions, etc.) is typically maintained in the data lake.Sales Order Transactions
After an order is confirmed in the shopping cart, it needs to be pushed into the data lake for fulfillment and delivery.Customer Data
New users (email addresses) created in the shopping cart need to be synced back to the data lake.Stock Availability
To prevent overselling and ensure deliveries, the e-commerce software pulls stock availability information from the Akaun Platform.
Point of Sales
Product Information
Similar to e-commerce, this information should flow from the Data Lake to the Point of Sales.Sales - Cash Bills / Receipts
Point of Sales systems typically send the sales receipts (cash bills) transactional information to the Akaun Platform.Customer Data
This data is usually consolidated and processed in the data lake platform.
Accounting System
Sales Invoices, Sales Return, Credit Notes, Receipt Vouchers
Akaun Platform consolidates operational data, including transactions with customers, and exports them to accounting software for financial reporting.Purchase Invoices, Purchase Return, Credit Notes, Payment Vouchers
Likewise, transactions with suppliers are exported to third-party accounting systems for financial reporting.Journal Transactions
Akaun Platform can generate journal transactions, and these may be exported to third-party accounting systems.
Membership Program
Member Records
The data lake contains all member records and is associated with various contact channels (e.g., Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram, email, mobile phone). Third-party loyalty programs could pull or push data into Akaun Platform (both directions).Point Transaction Lines
If membership point calculations are done in the membership program, this information can be synced into Akaun Platform, allowing businesses to use it in their e-commerce websites, mobile apps, etc.Membership Point Control Account
Akaun Platform calculates and updates membership points, and this information can be shared with third-party loyalty programs.Latest Membership Point Balance
This table stores the latest membership point balance, updated with each new transaction. The information can be accessed by POS or e-commerce websites in near real-time.
Warehouse Management
Purchase Orders
Purchase orders issued from Akaun Platform to suppliers need to be synced to the Warehouse Management System (WMS). When goods are delivered, the WMS enters the records of goods received, which are then checked against the Purchase Orders.Purchase - Goods Received Notes
Goods Received Notes are created using WMS and synced back to Akaun Platform for inventory calculations, also used for generating internal purchase invoices and accounting purposes.Sales Orders
Akaun Platform consolidates sales orders from e-commerce, conversational commerce, outlets, and marketplaces. These orders are sent to the WMS for picking, packing, and delivery.
Human Resource
Sales-related data
Third-party payroll or human resource software could extract sales reports from Akaun Platform to calculate commissions and process payroll automatically.Identity and Access Control
Auto-import/export functions help automate identity and access management when new employees join or leave.
