how to implement an e-webshop in 20 days
DESCRIPTION
How Technical Touch created an integrated SAP e-Pages Webshop Technical Touch was looking for an online webshop solution with a lot of functionality but easy and quick to implement. It had to connect seamlessly with their existing SAP BAIO ERP system without extensive programming and complex interfaces. Technical Touch selected the FAST-START e-Commerce solution based on the ePages Webshop software, combined with the SAP Certified Honico iMan WebConnect add-on for event controlled integration with the SAP ERP system. Within less than a month, the webshop was ready. SAPience User Day March 21, 2013TRANSCRIPT
