A Robust API

The full product information management (PIM) model in Centra is accessible through GraphQL API as well as through flat file product imports. This makes it easy to integrate master data from PLM, PDM, ERP and PIM systems. What data is enriched at what level can be decided based on needs.

Click‑and‑collect

Support warehouses with unsafe inventory levels (e.g., brick-and-mortar stores) through extra stock allocation at a central warehouse in case the inventory is unavailable. Timeout and threshold logic is definable and specific APIs are in place to facilitate the interaction with brick-and-mortar staff.

Same day ship‑from‑store

Use Centra’s clever APIs to integrate delivery experience solutions providing additional criteria for stock allocation.

Set up a "global same day" solution, turning your brick-and-mortar network into a powerful fulfillment network, without extensive building of any custom integrations or business logic.

Pick up and return in store

In case of a web order being returned to a brick-and-mortar store, Centra can trigger  a refund based on an API command, for a fully automated handling.

In case the original payment cannot be refunded, Centra provides that feedback and the store can e.g., issue a gift card instead.

Gift cards and store credits

Centra can integrate with other systems handling master data for gift cards and store credits.

Omnichannel campaigns

With rich APIs, Centra can either accept an external data source for campaigns, or act as a master.

You can also configure an integration so that an external system acts as a general master, but data is further enriched in Centra.
