DMS Integration is a new product, brought to you jointly by 50 Below and ADP Lightspeed, the leader in powersports Dealer Management Systems (DMS). This innovation allows dealers to process and fulfill Web orders along with in-store orders, directly within the DMS.
The preferences that you've set in Lightspeed—suppliers, taxes, shipping, credit card processing—are automatically applied to your Internet customers' orders, just as they are for your other orders. Because orders from your 50 Below Online Store go through your DMS, you won't have to manually transfer records of invoices and payments. Everything you need is in one system, your ADP Lightspeed NXT. At your command, Web order data from your Online Store flows into your DMS.
Here's how it works. You'll log in to your Lightspeed NXT, just as you always do. You'll see a button on your screen: "Web Orders." When you click that button, new orders and customer data will flow from your Online Store into NXT, where you'll process them. At each step of your order fulfillment within NXT, the system will update the order status in your 50 Below Command Center, so you'll always have a current record there, as well as in your DMS.
This simple chart shows the workflow:
Install this special module in your 50 Below Online Store Command Center, and you'll find all of your orders from Internet customers appear in your DMS, ready for you to manage.
- After initial configuration, your Lightspeed supplier codes are automatically applied to your Web orders.
- Internet customers are consistently and correctly assessed the same sales tax rates that you have set in Lightspeed NXT (and ADP keeps updates available to you as tax laws change.)
- Lightspeed NXT will automatically apply your shipping preferences when you fulfill online orders from your 50 Below Web site, just as it does for your other orders.
- You can use your Lightspeed system to combine customers' online purchase records with their in-store purchase history.
- Your Lightspeed NXT system automatically generates your accounting paper trail—invoices, receipts, etc.—and you process credit cards directly through the DMS.
Coming soon: During the fourth quarter of 2009, 50 Below will introduce the second phase of our integration with ADP Lightspeed, the product we're calling Inventory Sync. This exciting new product will allow you to push daily product availability information from your Lightspeed inventory management module to your 50 Below Online Store. You'll be able to show your Web customers which products are in-store and which are available quickly from your distributors.
Benefits of DMS Integration from 50 Below:
- Two tasks become one—instead of processing Web orders through your Online Store and then processing in-store orders through your DMS, you'll handle all your orders at once, consistently and effectively!
- This integration eliminates the need to manually re-enter order and customer data. The information flows automatically, at your command, from your 50 Below Online Store into your ADP Lightspeed NXT Dealer Management System.
