How it works

How the InfiPlex Michaels integration works

Michaels runs a standard retail EDI vendor relationship: purchase orders arrive for distribution center or store replenishment, and suppliers are expected to confirm shipments and invoice electronically within Michaels' required timing windows. InfiPlex pulls Michaels purchase orders into the same queue as your other retailers, generates the ASN and invoice documents on time, and keeps your inventory synced so you never commit stock you can't ship.

Flow diagram: Michaels sends new orders to the InfiPlex Order Management System about every 15 minutes. InfiPlex pushes tracking numbers and real-time inventory back to Michaels, and routes orders to Your Warehouses, 3PL / WMS Partners, Other Retailers for fulfillment.

The InfiPlex Michaels sync rail: EDI purchase orders flow into the OMS, ship to Michaels' distribution centers from your warehouse or 3PL, and return the ASN and invoice documents Michaels' vendor compliance program requires — while inventory stays reconciled across every retailer you supply.
