Background
When L'Oréal came to Webbhuset, they had tested several different Magento suppliers who could not deliver a good solution to their biggest challenge, a large number of unique price and product lists that needed to be integrated with their ERP system SAP.
After we performed a code review of their existing solution and found a large number of shortcomings and poor solutions, the conclusion was that we had to start over with a clean Magento and do it right from the beginning.
The challenge
After an investigation in cooperation with L'Oréal's SAP consultants, we concluded that it would be best if Webbhuset handled the entire integration as it would be easier to make changes in L'Oréal's integration engine than in SAP.
SAP has a range of exceptions and rules that we had to consider when building the integration, L'Oréal also has a large and complex product structure built in SAP that must be followed.
Results
Today, there is a fully integrated E‑commerce that serves several thousand hair salons throughout the Nordics, we have built several unique functions for L'Oréal so that their customers can find and purchase products in the best way possible, including an advanced campaign structure.
