Your systems do not talk to each other. Your teams compensate by hand.
Integrating your ERP, TMS, WMS and accounting with your invoicing and EDI flows — both directions, no re-keying, no intermediate file.
At a glance
- The subject
- The link between your management systems — ERP, TMS, WMS, accounting — and your invoicing and EDI flows.
- What we do
- We build or repair the integration in both directions, so data moves without re-keying, without an intermediate file and without manual reconciliation.
- Who it is for
- Companies whose systems run separately and whose teams retype information from one into another.
- What we do not do
- We do not replace your ERP and we do not resell connectors. We integrate what you already run.
- Starting point
- A diagnostic: the cause is established and quantified before anything is corrected.
The signs that this is where the problem is
- The same data is entered into two different systems.
- A daily manual export has become an indispensable step.
- A spreadsheet acts as the bridge between two applications.
- Invoicing statuses never make it back into your ERP.
- Your customer master data differs depending on which application you open.
- Every new flow requires one more human intervention.
What we take on
The goal is not to "connect tools": it is to remove the human steps that exist only because two systems ignore each other.
Two-way integration
Data goes down and comes back: orders, shipments, invoices, statuses, payments.
Master data alignment
Matching item, customer and site identifiers across systems, including where the coding schemes differ.
APIs & middleware
Building the interfaces where they are missing, and orchestrating exchanges between your applications.
Removing re-keying
Identifying every double-entry point and replacing it with an automated, controlled exchange.
Exchange reliability
Error recovery, idempotency, logging: a failed flow must be replayable without creating duplicates.
Accounting integration
Pushing invoices and their statuses through to accounting, so reconciliation no longer depends on an export.
How an engagement runs
- 01
Mapping
Systems, flows, formats, frequencies and the human steps that exist today.
- 02
Design
Choosing interfaces, matching rules and error handling.
- 03
Build
Implementation on your systems, with the necessary controls.
- 04
Acceptance
Testing on real data, including the cases that were causing trouble.
- 05
Go-live
Cutover, monitoring, documentation of the flow.
The systems involved
Each holds part of the data your invoice needs in order to be accepted.
- ERP
- The source of orders, invoices and master data.
- TMS
- Transport: what feeds your despatch advices and proof of delivery.
- WMS
- The warehouse: quantities actually picked and shipped, often the cause of invoicing discrepancies.
- Accounting
- The destination: reconciliation, matching, cash tracking.
- REST APIs
- The modern interface when exchanges have to be immediate.
- Middleware
- The layer that saves you from connecting every system to every other one.
Anumerik works on the technical implementation: mappings, data transformations, connectivity and integration. We do not provide legal or tax advice — your own advisers remain your reference on how the rules apply to you.
Frequently asked questions
Do you work with our ERP vendor?
Yes. We work on the integration layer and coordinate with your vendor or integrator when a change has to be made on their side.
Our ERP is old and fairly closed. Is that a blocker?
Rarely. An ERP without modern APIs can still be integrated by other means — databases, structured files, connectors. The constraint changes the design, not the feasibility.
Can we start with a single flow?
That is what we recommend. We take the flow costing you the most today, put it into production, and decide the rest with results in hand.

Fixing one broken process usually reveals another, right next to it.
