① Client Background

Company Profile

To protect the client's privacy, this case withholds the name and identifying details; only industry and solution are shared.

This is a state-controlled cross-border e-commerce company that, building on its traditional trade base, is advancing "Internet Plus" and developing cross-border e-commerce, with products spanning furniture and home goods, musical instruments, outdoor sports goods and beauty-and-wellness categories.

Cross-border e-commerce has to connect with several overseas platforms and an e-commerce middle platform at once. Bills and inventory data are scattered, and steps such as estimated profit, distribution, first-leg shipping and procurement-cost allocation are many and inconsistent, so it is hard to see the real profit by hand. Building on SAP Business One, MTC set up a cross-border e-commerce solution that connects multiple platforms and the e-commerce middle platform, integrates bills and inventory into the system automatically, and realizes difficult points such as estimated-profit sheets, distribution, first-leg shipping orders and procurement-cost allocation through custom development, while integrating the DingTalk interface to move approval, payment and reimbursement online.
