Transart Connector — Azuvio on top of B-Org / RetailExpert / DistribExpert, without touching accounting
Native bidirectional integration between the Azuvio Smart Operations Layer and the Transart suite (B-Org ERP, RetailExpert, DistribExpert) — via official REST/SOAP Web Services. Partners, items, orders, invoices, goods receipts and payments synced in <2 min. Transart stays the master for inventory, accounting and RO reporting. Azuvio adds multi-channel OMS, retailer EDI, mobile WMS, offline-first SFA and a B2B portal — exactly the capabilities Transart doesn't cover elegantly.
Why Transart alone is no longer enough in 2026
Transart is one of Romania's most mature ERP suites for mid-market distribution and retail. B-Org covers accounting, inventory, cash/bank, payroll. RetailExpert is a reference for multi-store retail chains in RO. DistribExpert serves distributors with field reps and multiple warehouses. For accounting, quantitative inventory and RO tax reporting, Transart is excellent — and you don't want to replace it.
The problem shows up on extended operations: multi-channel OMS with eMAG/Amazon/your own eCom, EDI with major retailers (Auchan/Lidl/Carrefour/Metro), self-service B2B portal for hundreds of customers, mobile-scanner WMS with FEFO and lot tracking, offline-first SFA with live price and stock sync. Standard Transart handles none of these elegantly. Bolt-on modules or customizations through Transart partners cost months and raise system complexity.
Azuvio fills exactly that gap: it runs on top of Transart as a Smart Operations Layer through a native connector that uses official REST/SOAP Web Services (B-Org, RetailExpert, DistribExpert). Day-to-day operations happen in Azuvio; Transart receives exactly what it needs — partners, items, orders, invoices, goods receipts, payments — reconcilable without effort. Your accountant's routine doesn't change.
What the Azuvio Transart connector does
8 native capabilities, included in the standard product — no separate modules, no per-call billing.
- Bidirectional partner sync — Customers and suppliers flow between Transart (B-Org/RetailExpert/DistribExpert) and Azuvio CRM with automatic matching on tax ID. A new lead converted in Azuvio becomes a partner in Transart with an ANAF-validated tax ID; a partner edited in Transart appears in Azuvio in <2 min.
- Items + price lists sync — Item master (code, name, UoM, groups, prices, per-customer/per-channel price lists) published from Transart to Azuvio. Or the reverse — new SKUs from eCom/OMS written back to Transart with rule-based code generation.
- Orders: Azuvio → Transart — Orders captured via OMS (EDI, marketplace, eCom, B2B portal, SFA, phone) automatically written into Transart with the right partner, items, customer price-list rate and delivery terms. Status returned on changes.
- Invoices: Azuvio ↔ Transart — An invoice issued in Azuvio (at WMS dispatch) is written into Transart for accounting. Or the reverse — invoices issued in Transart synced to Azuvio for tracking. e-Invoicing delivered from whichever side suits you.
- Synced multi-location master stock — Master stock stays where it lives (Transart inventory or Azuvio WMS — your choice). Event-driven sync or at interval (5–15 min). Buffers, multi-warehouse/store allocations, per-order reservations, FBE/FBA.
- Goods receipts on scanner — Goods receipt auto-created in Transart when goods are received in Azuvio WMS with barcode, photos on discrepancies, lot/expiry. PO → receipt → supplier invoice reconciliation runs automatically.
- Incoming payments + auto-matching — Payments from POS, eCom and Azuvio AR collection written into Transart with automatic invoice ↔ payment matching. Your accountant's bank reconciliation gets 2x faster.
- Multi-company + multi-store — Supports scenarios with multiple companies in B-Org and multiple stores in RetailExpert. Azuvio maps partner/item/order to the correct company and location, without manual intervention.
Native Azuvio connector vs Transart partner development vs manual import
Same Transart integration, three different approaches — wildly different cost, time and risk.
| Aspect | Native Azuvio connector | Transart partner development | Manual XML/Excel import |
|---|
| Time to first flow in production | 2–5 weeks | 3–6 months (partner queue) | Immediate but manual daily |
| Implementation cost | Included in Azuvio subscription | Thousands € + waiting queue | Hidden cost in person-days |
| Maintenance after Transart update | Included — we update it | Paid again on each version | Redone manually on changes |
| Operations covered (OMS, EDI, WMS, SFA, B2B) | All, native | Only if you pay for each separately | None — data transport only |
| Client-side skill required | None — you use Azuvio UI | Coordination with partner | Dedicated operator daily |
| Risk to existing Transart | Zero — only official Web Services | Medium — modifies the master | High — transcription errors |
| Multi-company/multi-store support | Native | Re-done per company/store | Manual per company |
| Real-time vs batch | Sub-2 min event-driven | Depends on scope | End-of-day |
Implementing the Azuvio Transart connector — 6 steps
Typically 3–5 weeks from kick-off to first flow in production, depending on the Transart product and volume.
- Kick-off + Transart audit — Transart product (B-Org / RetailExpert / DistribExpert / combination), version, active modules, partner count, item count, multi-company, multi-store, customizations. We agree which Azuvio modules connect in phase one.
- Technical access + credentials — Enable Transart REST/SOAP Web Services with a dedicated user and minimal rights on partners + items + orders + invoices + goods receipts + payments. Connectivity test, latency measurement, rate-limiting agreement.
- Partner + items + chart of accounts mapping — Field mapping Azuvio ↔ Transart: tax ID, internal partner code, VAT payer, payment terms, price lists. Same for items: code, name, UoM, group, price. Chart of accounts mapping for invoices and payments. Documentation delivered.
- Initial history sync + dry-run — Import partners + items + price lists from Transart into Azuvio. Dry-run for orders: we push 10 test orders from Azuvio into Transart and validate. Any missing mapping is fixed before pilot.
- 2-week parallel pilot — Two weeks running Azuvio and Transart in parallel on a limited segment (one channel, one category, one location). Your team validates daily. Tuning. Operations team training.
- Go-live + first-week monitoring — Connector enabled across all flows. Proactive monitoring for 7 days with alert on any error > 0. Daily checkpoint with your team. Full handover to Azuvio support with an agreed SLA.
Real problems solved by the Azuvio Transart connector
- Problem: Orders from eMAG/Amazon/eCom are entered manually into B-Org (2 min × 200 orders/day = 6 person-hours/day wasted), with price and partner errors. Azuvio + Transart solution: Azuvio OMS captures orders from all channels and writes them automatically into Transart with the right partner, items and customer price. Operators become exception handlers.
- Problem: EDI with Auchan/Lidl/Carrefour/Metro runs on a legacy system not connected to Transart — ORDERS on Excel, DESADV/INVOIC manual, delays and fines. Azuvio + Transart solution: Azuvio EDIconnect (live since 2014, certified with RO retailers) receives ORDERS, writes them into Transart as orders, generates DESADV on dispatch and INVOIC on invoicing. Zero manual steps, 100% compliance.
- Problem: DistribExpert field reps across multi-county territories use personal phones; orders are transcribed the next day — 24h lag, errors, stock conflicts. Azuvio + Transart solution: Azuvio SFA offline-first mobile with Transart sync: the rep sees live stock, the correct customer price, writes the order directly. Zero lag, uniform UX.
- Problem: Goods receipt in RetailExpert stores happens on paper; the NIR is entered 1–2 days later with discrepancies. Azuvio + Transart solution: Azuvio WMS on mobile scanner: receipt via barcode, photo on discrepancies, lot/expiry. Goods receipt generated automatically in Transart within seconds, with photo attached.
- Problem: B2B customers call 40 times a day for stock, price, order status, balance — sales team answers manually from Transart, burning time. Azuvio + Transart solution: Azuvio B2B Portal connects to Transart: the customer sees live stock, their own price, orders, invoices, payments, recurring orders. Inbound calls drop 60–80% in 90 days.
What Azuvio on top of Transart looks like in practice
Built by Azuvio (2014–present, team with 200+ implementations in distribution, retail and manufacturing). The scenarios below are representative — typical combinations of the challenges we solve.
- FMCG distributor on DistribExpert + 80 field reps + 4 warehouses — Used DistribExpert for accounting + inventory, but rep orders were transcribed the next day. Added Azuvio SFA + OMS + Transart connector: reps write orders on mobile, they hit DistribExpert instantly with the right price. Representative result: lag from 24h to 0, zero transcription errors, 2x processing speed.
- Omnichannel retailer on RetailExpert + 18 stores + eMAG — RetailExpert for centralized multi-store inventory, but eCom/marketplace on a separate system. Oversell and chaotic returns. Added Azuvio OMS + WMS + Transart connector: stock unified live across stores + eCom + eMAG, returns in one flow.
- Manufacturer on B-Org + 3 companies + EDI Auchan/Carrefour — B-Org for multi-company accounting, but EDI with retailers on Excel + email. Added Azuvio EDI + B2B Portal + Transart connector: retailer ORDERS flow automatically into B-Org on the correct company, DESADV/INVOIC generated automatically. 4 person-days/week recovered from manual EDI work.
Technical & operational details for the Transart connector
Supported Transart products
B-Org ERP (all versions with active REST/SOAP Web Services), RetailExpert (all recent versions), DistribExpert (all versions with active mobile modules). For older versions we use an XML import/export mechanism with folder polling. RO localizations fully covered (VAT, tax ID, e-Factura).
APIs and protocols used
Official Transart REST/SOAP Web Services for all major objects (partners, items, orders, invoices, goods receipts, payments). Event-driven webhook where the version supports it. Fallback for older versions: XML importer with configurable polling.
Security and compliance
VPN/IPsec connection to the client's Transart server. Dedicated Transart user with minimal rights per product/company. Full logging for audit. GDPR-compliant. Contabo backups, Prometheus + Grafana monitoring.
Performance and rate limiting
Configurable per client and per product. Default: 15 calls/sec on Web Services. Exponential retry on transient errors, dead-letter queue on permanent errors with alert. Event-driven webhook where the version supports it, polling otherwise.
Typical flows and volumes
A mid-sized client runs roughly 3,000–10,000 messages/day through the connector. A large multi-store retail client (RetailExpert) or multi-rep distributor (DistribExpert) can reach 50,000+ messages/day at peak. The k8s pod-per-tenant architecture supports horizontal scaling without limits.
Gradual migration vs big-bang
Standard recommendation: do not enable all flows at once. Start with partner + item sync (read-only, zero risk), then add orders after a 2-week pilot, then invoices and payments. Big-bang only when there's an external constraint.
Frequently asked questions
- Does the Transart connector affect the performance of my existing B-Org/RetailExpert/DistribExpert systems?
- No. We use official Web Services with rate limiting calibrated to your server's load. At kick-off we measure latency and volume, then configure the connector to stay under the agreed threshold. For high-traffic servers we use event-driven webhooks where the version supports them.
- How long does the Transart connector implementation take?
- Typically 3–5 weeks from kick-off to first flow in production. Includes audit, partner+items+chart of accounts mapping, history sync, a 2-week parallel pilot and go-live with 7-day monitoring. Multi-company or multi-product Transart adds 1–2 weeks.
- Does it work with all 3 Transart products (B-Org, RetailExpert, DistribExpert)?
- Yes. Our connector is built modularly on each product's Web Services; we can use them separately or combined. Many companies run B-Org + RetailExpert or B-Org + DistribExpert — we integrate flows correctly across all of them.
- Who issues e-invoices — Azuvio or Transart?
- You decide with us. Most common case: Azuvio generates the invoice at dispatch and sends it directly to the national e-invoicing system, then passes it to Transart for accounting evidence only. Alternative: Transart generates and sends (if you have the module), and Azuvio just receives the confirmation.
- Does the connector support multiple companies in B-Org and multiple stores in RetailExpert?
- Yes, natively. We map each B-Org company and each RetailExpert store to corresponding Azuvio entities, with separate charts of accounts and price lists. Orders, invoices and payments hit the correct company/store without manual intervention.
- What happens if Transart has downtime or an update?
- The Azuvio connector queues all operations during downtime, with no data loss. When Transart comes back, operations are resent in chronological order. For planned updates you get advance notice and we can switch temporarily to degraded mode.
- Can we start with just partner/item sync and add the rest later?
- Yes, that's the standard recommended approach. We start read-only (partners + items + price lists) — zero risk on Transart. After 2 stable weeks we add write (orders, then invoices, then payments). Modular.
- How much does the Transart connector cost separately from Azuvio?
- The Transart connector is included in the standard Azuvio subscription (from €12/user/month) — you don't pay separately. The incremental cost is only the implementation scoping (3–7 consultant days), presented as a fixed quote after the audit. No per-call license, no variable fee.
