ERP-WhatsApp integration architecture
Integration between ERP and WhatsApp Business API typically happens through a middleware layer that intercepts ERP events and transforms them into Chat API calls.
Automatic notifications from ERP
Typical ERP triggers for WhatsApp notifications: order confirmed, order in preparation, order shipped with tracking, invoice available, payment deadline, goods ready for pickup.
Testing and go-live
Before go-live, test the integration in a sandbox environment with real data but internal recipients.
