There is no single business management system that does everything, and there never will be. The next best thing is thorough, reliable integration. It's a worthy goal. Integration drives growth while saving time, saving money, and reducing errors.

Four51 offers several standard integration solutions. One is integration with SAP's BusinessOne, also known as B1, a business management system for the mid-market. Four51 and SAP together integrate all core business functions across your entire distributorship - including e-commerce, financials, sales, customer relationship management, inventory, business intelligence and operations.

Four print distributors are fully implemented on Four51 and B1, and about 10 more are in-process or in the queue. Our approach to this business is very deliberate, emphasizing quality over quantity. We've learned a lot about replacing packages like e-Quantum and TopForm, which makes each new implementation faster and easier.

Another popular integration solution makes use of Four51's Order Management Web Services Suite. In lay terms, this allows Four51 to tell another system about an order, and for that system to tell Four51 about the shipment of that order.
