Real-Time Data
Real-time ERP data is collected from your ERP system and displayed to the customer via the website. This data includes:
- Orders
- Quotes
- Invoices
Real-Time Pricing is enabled in every pricing scenario except for simple pricing (this is when pricing is static and stored in price field 1-10).
Real-time Inventory data can be displayed using the Real-time Inventory setting. Real-time inventory display can slow down page loading times, and can potentially impact the responsiveness of your ERP system, so keep this in mind when considering this setting.
