Packages at either end
Sage 50 and Sage 100, EBP, Cegid, Odoo, Pennylane or Divalto keeping the books; WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Shopify, Magento or Sylius taking the orders.
Copying one order across into the ledger costs two minutes. Put forty orders a day through that habit and you have funded a part-time post nobody asked for, along with the occasional tax rate that slipped past. France is moving towards structured electronic invoicing, and a slipped rate no longer vanishes under a quiet correction: it leaves a trail and calls for a credit note. Our answer is to let the document assemble itself out of whatever the buyer typed while paying.
Everything turns on a decision taken early: which side holds the truth about articles, tariffs and quantities. That answer dictates the direction of flow and settles the choice between a packaged module and a purpose-built link.

Codes, barcodes, units, product families and tax rates flow outwards from a single origin. One article, one wording, one benchmark price, wherever it surfaces.
Individuals get a straightforward document. A company supplies its registered name and VAT identifier while ordering, and that identifier is verified before anything is issued.
Documents come out as Factur-X, which stays a PDF a human can read while carrying the data fields the French reform expects. Your accountant picks the submission route, and Chorus Pro steps in whenever the buyer sits in the public sector.
Approve a return on the storefront and a draft credit appears in the ledger. Nobody rebuilds it from nothing on the strength of a note that arrived from despatch.
Settlements from Stripe, PayPlug, Lyra or Mollie are tied back to their documents, while operator fees land on an expense account of their own rather than dissolving into a miscellaneous line.
A refused document, a halted exchange, an article missing its tax rate: a designated colleague learns which order is affected and why, in plain words rather than a numeric code.
A hosted package such as Pennylane tends to connect faster than a Sage installation living on a server with several stock locations. Boundaries and dates are pinned down once the opening review is complete.
Journals, tax rates, numbering series and the current route by which storefront documents come into existence all get examined.
Live books stay untouched. The storefront talks to a copied database or a practice company while the wiring takes shape.
Dozens of genuine recent orders are pushed through, and what emerges is held up against the documents raised manually.
Go-live lands on an uneventful day, far from any filing deadline, after which both sides are reconciled at intervals through the opening weeks.
Hastily built catalogues do more harm than any piece of software. Colour and size buried inside a description, one garment wearing three separate codes, books at the standard rate, units whose meaning changes between records. Wiring merely propagates that mess, and it reappears on everything you issue. Cleaning it up belongs to whoever answers for the range; our part is showing which end to pull first and how to correct in bulk.
Frequently yes, and where it does we say so instead of quoting for a build. Modules cope with straightforward trading: a single stock location, one tariff, private buyers. Strain shows up around variants, trade tariffs, multiple locations, or selling into other member states under the single return scheme. At that point we write against the ledger API and keep looking after it afterwards.
Your buyer gets the usual confirmation while the document joins a queue. Transmission resumes the moment the service answers, with the reference reaching the order a little later. Behaviour during an extended outage is a decision for your accountant, and whatever is decided becomes part of the setup.
Quite the opposite, and it is settled before a single setting is touched. Together we mark which documents leave unattended and which pause for a human, credits and foreign sales being the usual candidates. Less keying, more checking: a better use of anyone trained in accounting.
Quantities within a few minutes. Tariffs a handful of times daily. Copy and imagery once, overnight. Firing the whole catalogue continuously loads the ledger server, and on a machine sitting in your own building it drags the office down at busy moments.
Through an encrypted session and a restricted account you create yourself, by no other route. Site visits and hardware supply sit outside what we offer. Where a physical action at the machine cannot be avoided, written directions go to whoever is standing beside it.
Name the platform behind the shop, the package your accounts run on and roughly how many articles you carry. An estimate and a date come back to you.

An answer follows inside one working day. Report an outage that is stopping people working and it moves ahead of everything else.
Nothing here under that name. Check the spelling, or simply choose the nearest large city instead. Since every engagement runs remotely, whichever you pick changes nothing about what we do for you.
