Researching some new ReadyMade possibilities for integration to Basecamp.

Seems Basecamp is hugely popular, as we’ve had some requests to take a look at how it might be integrated with a couple of key applications, such as Salesforce and Saasu.

Here’s my proposed flow between the Basecamp and Salesforce objects:

Integrate Basecamp with Salesforce

Integrating Basecamp to an online accounting application such as Saasu is different, here’s the objects and process I think will work.  Any feedback would be great, if we can validate the process flows and objects involved we can then design the solutions and build them.

Now that’s cool.  Talend announced today they’ve acquired all rights to the Master Data Management (MDM) technology of Amalto Technologies http://www.talend.com/press/Talend-Announces-First-Open-Source-Master-Data-Management-Solution.php.  This will enable organisations of any size to consolidate their data and tackle data management without spending a hefty sum.  This will present a viable alternative to the big guys, could be interesting.

Working on a ReadyMade for Business Catalyst -> MYOB Accounting for cash sales, here’s the basic process:

This is in response to requests to automate the entry of ecommerce sales into MYOB, eliminating the need to manually key in each invoice.  It takes about 2-3 minutes for each invoice to be manually entered into MYOB, for companies entering even 20 invoices this can be painful.

We should be ready to test in early October, let us know if you are interested to participate in our beta cycle?

If you are interested in different Business Catalyst or MYOB integrations that we don’t have on our website, then why not suggest them to us and we can do some research and blog about our plans and findings.

Worked on our roadmap for ReadyMade’s for the rest of the year.  So far I’ve got:

1. Salesforce -> Quickbooks (Australia)
2. Business Catalyst -> MYOB
3. Salesforce -> MYOB Retail Manager
4. SugarCRM -> MYOB

If I’m off the mark it would be great to get input.  We’ve put up a text box here to take input from site visitors, no questions asked.

The Salesforce to Saasu RIO ReadyMade integration solution now includes payment information updated to Salesforce.  Here’s the new application integration process flow:

We have built an LDAP Connector using the Boomi Atomsphere SDK.  The requirement was for Active Directory (AD) to Netsuite application integration for the synchronisation of Contact and authentication information between the client’s AD implementation and their Netsuite customer portal.  We chose to build an LDAP Connector for the solution. The Connector  can create, modify and activate users. It also can create Active Directory OU’s and groups and add the users to the groups. The connector supports SSL as well as non SSL communications

With the LDAP connector we can now integrate LDAP with other hosted or on-premise solutions such as SalesForce, RightNow, Sassu and many more.

For more information contact us.

We’re looking at integrating the MYOB Retail Manager product to salesforce.com.   This would be a new ReadyMade solution, providing a pre-built solution that integrates the following:

No date set for development and release, but it’s on our roadmap, we’ll keep you posted.
