eProcurement

## The Client

A leading **cloud-based procurement software company** in Northwest USA, founded in 1997.

The [Fraxion](https://www.fraxion.biz/) helps with **proactive spend management** (purchase requisitioning, expense, and approval management with advanced analytics) for the **mid-market**.

- Managing over **$10 billion in spend globally**
- Supporting **1,000+ organizations**
- Serving **200,000+ users**

## The Challenges

The client was performing well with their existing procurement software offerings.

However, some users had to manually **import and export data** from the procurement software to accounting software.

When the stock level of any item reduces to a low quantity such as 20 then BigCommerce, this was time-consuming for end users and also the competitive market of this time has an alternative for almost anything these days.

To advance their **USP**  and improve the user experience, the client decided to implement QuickBooks integration to **automate data syncing between systems**.

They wanted this add-on to be **simple**, enabling non-technical users to operate it easily with minimal assistance.

Key challenges included:
- **Manual Data Handling**: Time-consuming and error-prone manual import/export processes.
- **Integration Complexity**: Needed an integration tool that could handle over 30 connections and be easily scalable.

The client also required a solution that worked without changes to their existing software.
Ideally, they wanted an **integration tool** that requests data from the procurement software, triggers a response, and syncs with **QuickBooks Desktop**.

## The Solution

### Phase 1: Initial Setup and Scope

The Satva team conducted several calls and email discussions to understand the procurement software’s workflow, ultimately developing a clear scope.**Satva’s** Business Analyst and Tech Lead worked on demo accounts and created a **Proof of Concept (POC)**.

The proposed solution involved:
- **Sync Entities**: Supplier (Vendor), GL Code (Account), Invoice (Vendor Bill).
- **Local Integration**: Developed a console application that directly authenticates with QuickBooks Desktop, avoiding the need for a web connector approach. The application runs at scheduled times to sync records from the [accounts payable system to QuickBooks Desktop](https://satvasolutions.com/quickbooks-integration-service) automatically.

The system handles all tasks without requiring user intervention, including:

- **Automatic Sync**: The console application synchronizes data automatically at scheduled intervals.
- **Sync Services**: Monitors accuracy, connection status, and provides error reporting for troubleshooting.

### Phase 2: Enhancements and Automation

As the integration went live and end users began using it, the client requested further automation. The second phase included syncing the following:

- Customers
- Classes
- Jobs
- Updated Bills

The Satva team delivered this within **two weeks**.

## The Sync

Extracting **vendors, GL codes, budgets vs. actuals,** and **pushing AP invoices** into QuickBooks Desktop.

Synchronizing **Customers, Classes, and Jobs**.

## Benefits

- Over **9,000 records** (bills, vendors, GL codes, budgets vs actuals) synchronized between QuickBooks Desktop and the Procurement software.
- Business transactions worth **$4 million** synchronized.
- User ratings of the procurement software improved from **3.9 to 4.4.**
- Errors and duplications were reduced to zero for end users.
- **23% growth** in the user base.
- Minimal support is needed—just a few emails since **March 2021.**

## Technology Stack

- SQL Server
- C#
