Key benefits of Planet’s OMS extension for Shopware

The OMS Shopware extension significantly reduces the cost and time required to integrate an Order Management System (OMS).

This extension offers pre-connected data flows, including product catalogue synchronization between Shopware and Planet OMS. It also features automatic import of Shopware orders into Planet OMS, streamlining the order management process and enabling real-time order tracking on Shopware through Planet OMS.

Additionally, the extension includes pre-integrated "Available to Promise" functionality, which provides accurate availability and lead-times for each delivery method on the product detail page, cart, and checkout.
