Zapier

Zapier allows you to automate all your tasks.

Connect your everyday apps to automate your tasks and be more productive. Over 1000 apps to easily connect - you'll be up and running in minutes. Zapier is a tool that allows you to connect hundreds of applications and services through the Cloud to share data and trigger events between two tools. Building a workflow using zaps becomes child's play: you choose the triggering event (like receiving an email in Gmail), then you choose the action to be taken.

The integration between Monstock and Zapier opens up new automation opportunities for businesses wishing to connect their operational management solution to their entire digital ecosystem. By connecting Monstock to Zapier, users can synchronise their data with thousands of third-party applications (ERP, CRM, sales tools, e-commerce or communication platforms) without any specific development. This integration makes it possible to centralise, automate and ensure the reliability of data exchanges at the heart of the supply chain and business processes.

Thanks to this connector, the products, variants and equipment managed in Monstock are automatically synchronised with the tools connected via Zapier. Stock levels, stock activities, customer and supplier orders, and contacts are updated in real time between Monstock and the interfaced applications. This automation eliminates repetitive tasks and reduces the risk of errors associated with manual entry, while ensuring complete consistency of information across all systems.

One of the main advantages of this integration is its flexibility. Zapier acts as a universal connector, capable of linking Monstock to various applications such as HubSpot, Shopify, QuickBooks, and Trello. Users can create customised automated workflows ("Zaps") to meet their specific needs: automatic stock updates in an ERP system, notifications of new orders in a CRM system, or synchronisation of customer information in a marketing tool.

Operationally, this automation generates considerable time savings, reduces the costs associated with maintaining manual integrations, and improves data quality. Strategically, it enables companies to make their supply chains more agile, connected, and data-driven.

In summary, the Monstock–Zapier connector transforms Monstock into a true connected hub, capable of interacting with the company's entire digital ecosystem. This integration simplifies collaboration between departments and promotes rapid, reliable decision-making based on synchronised data.

The integration diagram between Monstock and Zapier illustrates bidirectional flows enabling complete synchronisation of operational data. These automated exchanges ensure the consistency and reliability of information on products, stock, orders and contacts between Monstock and applications connected via Zapier.

Flow from Monstock to Zapier

From Monstock, several categories of data are transmitted to Zapier for use in other applications:

• Products, variants and equipment: product sheets and their characteristics are exported to feed sales, e-commerce or CRM tools.
• Stock levels: available quantities are sent in order to keep availability data up to date on connected platforms.
• Stock activities: incoming and outgoing movements are transmitted, enabling real-time updates to tracking tables or automated reports.
• Customer and supplier orders: this data is shared with commercial or financial management tools for tracking and invoicing purposes.
• Contacts: customer and supplier information is exported in order to maintain a unified database across all applications.

Zapier flow to Monstock

Conversely, Zapier enables Monstock to receive data from other connected applications:

• Products, variants, and equipment created or updated in external tools.
• Stock levels and activities from third-party applications to enrich reports or synchronise updates.
• Customer and supplier orders generated on an e-commerce site or in a CRM system are automatically integrated into Monstock to trigger preparation operations.
• Contacts updated or created in other systems, to ensure complete consistency between customer databases.

Synchronisation and automation

Exchanges between Monstock and Zapier are automated, continuous, and customisable. Each action in one system can be configured as a trigger for an automated flow to another application. The frequency and conditions of synchronisation can be adjusted according to operational needs.

By combining the power of Zapier and the reliability of Monstock, this integration enables businesses to easily orchestrate their data flows and automate their processes, resulting in a more connected, responsive, and efficient supply chain.
