An Introduction to Connect MIS Plugins | BG_Ecom_005

In this tutorial, we'll explore how to integrate Infigo with various Management Information Systems (MIS) using MIS plugins. You'll learn how to push order information and artwork from Infigo to third-party providers like printIQ, Tharstern, Veracore, LabelTraxx, and CERM. We discuss the fundamental steps of configuring these integrations, including linking products between Infigo and your MIS, setting up credentials, and managing specific settings for each integration. This video will help you streamline your workflow by effectively connecting Infigo to your existing MIS systems.

00:00:05:27 - 00:00:08:27
very very briefly talk about MIS plugins.

00:00:09:12 - 00:00:10:20
Now this is going to be brief.

00:00:10:20 - 00:00:12:23
So sorry
if you have been waiting for this section.

00:00:12:23 - 00:00:14:13
But there's so many different plugins.

00:00:14:13 - 00:00:16:16
We have to so many different providers.

00:00:16:16 - 00:00:19:22
So we can't go we can't go through them
all in order detail.

00:00:20:04 - 00:00:23:16
But fundamentally what they're all doing
is allowing you to push your order

00:00:23:16 - 00:00:26:29
information and artwork into your

00:00:27:19 - 00:00:30:12
whatever your third party provider is.

00:00:30:12 - 00:00:33:12
So if I go to,

00:00:34:18 - 00:00:35:04
Connect

00:00:35:04 - 00:00:38:04
plugins now, you will not have a list.

00:00:38:07 - 00:00:39:27
Probably anywhere near as long as this.

00:00:39:27 - 00:00:42:27
I've got a lot enabled
on my little training platform here.

00:00:43:11 - 00:00:46:16
They just show the kind of scope
of the kind of things which we have worked

00:00:46:16 - 00:00:49:16
on, even if they're not
all immediately available.

00:00:49:17 - 00:00:54:06
So this is things like integrating
with, print IQ is a big one.

00:00:54:06 - 00:00:58:11
We do Tharstern,
Veracore, LabelTraxx, CERM.

00:01:00:21 - 00:01:01:27
Those are

00:01:01:27 - 00:01:07:00
ones that have warranted having their own
personalized integration being made.

00:01:07:15 - 00:01:10:24
Now they do all have their own unique
capabilities based on what

00:01:10:24 - 00:01:13:24
that platform allows
and how it does things.

00:01:13:25 - 00:01:17:00
So for example, print
IQ has a product sync.

00:01:17:13 - 00:01:22:11
So you can actually get products
to sync back into Infigo or vice versa.

00:01:23:00 - 00:01:26:23
Where some of the other integrations
might not have that

00:01:26:23 - 00:01:28:09
because they don't allow it.

00:01:28:09 - 00:01:29:21
The fundamental fundamental fundamentally

00:01:29:21 - 00:01:32:21
what they're doing
is allowing you to push order information

00:01:33:23 - 00:01:37:20
into that MIS so you can manage it from
there might include your artwork.

00:01:37:27 - 00:01:41:02
And then in the vast majority of cases,
you can get status

00:01:41:02 - 00:01:44:21
updates back into Infigo via
webhook as well.

00:01:45:02 - 00:01:48:14
So you don't have to just manually
update everything.

00:01:48:14 - 00:01:52:11
And then of course, when the
when the status is updated back in Infigo,

00:01:52:26 - 00:01:55:18
it has a knock on effect
where that can update the customer.

00:01:55:18 - 00:01:56:21
If you want it to as well.

00:01:56:21 - 00:01:58:11
So it can trigger an email. For example.

00:02:00:24 - 00:02:03:24
Now the configuration is.

00:02:06:17 - 00:02:07:05
Different,

00:02:07:05 - 00:02:10:15
but the same for all of these,
all of these different integrations.

00:02:11:11 - 00:02:14:07
What you're doing again,
is providing credentials

00:02:14:07 - 00:02:18:11
so you can link your two systems
and there's associated

00:02:18:11 - 00:02:21:19
settings
based on that particular integration.

00:02:21:28 - 00:02:26:05
So whether you want to do things or not
do things, but then what you're doing in

00:02:26:05 - 00:02:31:01
many cases is making sure that you've
linked certain scenarios with within.

00:02:31:02 - 00:02:34:02
Infigo into certain scenarios
within your MIS.

00:02:34:13 - 00:02:35:23
So for example, this might be

00:02:35:23 - 00:02:39:17
I have a certain product
with certain attribute specifications.

00:02:39:27 - 00:02:44:29
This links
to a certain, product specification

00:02:44:29 - 00:02:47:15
which is in print IQ for example.

00:02:47:15 - 00:02:50:02
And you need to marry them together.

00:02:50:02 - 00:02:53:27
And what we're looking for in
this case is a button,

00:02:53:27 - 00:02:56:02
which you'll see in
quite a few different places

00:02:56:02 - 00:03:00:06
because you can link quite a few
things, is a green connect link button.

00:03:01:27 - 00:03:03:17
So I can go to my

00:03:03:17 - 00:03:06:17
product management, for example.

00:03:09:13 - 00:03:12:13
And then below it is.

00:03:12:18 - 00:03:14:13
Some variant

00:03:14:13 - 00:03:15:15
I there we go.

00:03:15:15 - 00:03:17:25
So I've gone to my product variant
and you can see that

00:03:17:25 - 00:03:21:05
there's this green connect link
and what that allows you to do

00:03:22:00 - 00:03:25:17
generally speaking is to relate

00:03:26:13 - 00:03:28:29
the area
you've just clicked connect Link for.

00:03:28:29 - 00:03:33:07
So in this case, that particular product
you can put in an external ID to link

00:03:33:07 - 00:03:36:09
to something equivalent on your Mis.

00:03:37:08 - 00:03:39:23
Now depending on the integration,
you might be able to do

00:03:39:23 - 00:03:42:23
a lot more or less
in this particular window.

00:03:43:07 - 00:03:45:21
But fundamentally
that's what you're doing.

00:03:45:21 - 00:03:48:21
You're linking up those scenarios.

00:03:55:07 - 00:03:55:23
Okay.

00:03:55:23 - 00:04:00:07
A lot of those MIS systems,
the integrations we provide

00:04:00:07 - 00:04:02:26
at least do
have documentation on the academy,

00:04:02:26 - 00:04:06:13
so you can find those if you need to
or if you're struggling to set one up

00:04:06:13 - 00:04:09:11
or you want more information
on a particular integration.

00:04:09:11 - 00:04:11:09
Give us a shout
and we can try and help you out.
