Netsuite to Salesforce
A global retail customer operates Point of Sale (POS) systems across multiple countries. To enhance employee management and sales reporting, they needed to integrate POS transaction data into HRM platforms and Salesforce. Yell Technologies was brought in to architect and implement a scalable, API-based solution using MuleSoft.
How Yell Technologies empowered a retail customer to centralize POS data across global outlets into HRM and Sales systems using MuleSoft APIs.
Challenges
- Scattered data silos: POS systems across regions captured sales, inventory, and employee interaction data—but this data was not reaching core HR and sales systems.
- Manual, error-prone processes: Aggregation and uploads were manual, increasing error rates and lag.
- Scalability and visibility needed: The customer needed real-time, governed integrations as they expanded globally.
Solution
Yell Technologies implemented an API-led integration framework using MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform:
- API Development for POS to HRM/Sales Systems • Developed multiple REST APIs to securely extract data from POS systems. • Transformed and mapped POS data into formats compatible with various HRM systems (e.g. Workday, SAP SuccessFactors) and Salesforce.
- Modular Integration Architecture • Created reusable API assets for sales transactions, inventory updates, and employee shift details. • Ensured clear data contracts, consistent error-handling, and auditing across integrations.
- Scalable Implementation • Designed for horizontal scalability to support global store rollout. • Implemented monitoring, SLA-based alerting, and fault tolerance via MuleSoft’s built-in capabilities.
Why Yell Technologies’s Approach Worked
- API-led design aligns with MuleSoft’s best practices—decoupled, reusable, and maintainable services.
- POS integration template advantage: Inspired by MuleSoft’s Retail Accelerator, which supports POS-to-CRM/ERP scenarios
- Agile onboarding: New outlets and HRM instances could be connected rapidly via configurable API flows.
Results
- Real-time data visibility: POS transactions and employee records now update HRM and Salesforce automatically—no lag or manual intervention.
- Reduced errors & operational load: Automated flow eliminated manual uploads and reduced mismatches.
- Accelerated expansion: The modular, API-led approach supported rapid rollout to new outlets.
- Improved reporting: Sales and HR teams now receive timely, unified data—enabling better analytics and decision-making.
Conclusion
Yell Technologies delivered a robust, API-led integration platform using MuleSoft—seamlessly connecting POS systems with HRM and Sales platforms. The result is faster, accurate data flow, scalable global implementation, and empowered business teams with real-time insights.
