Overview

This node integrates with the Xentral ERP system to manage orders (Auftrag) via its API. Specifically, for the 'Auftrag(v1)' resource and 'Erstellen' (create) operation, it allows users to create new orders by sending order data to the Xentral API. This is useful for automating order creation workflows, such as when new sales orders are received from an e-commerce platform or CRM system, enabling seamless order management within Xentral ERP.

Use Case Examples

1. Automatically create a new order in Xentral when a customer places an order on an online store.
2. Create orders in Xentral based on data from a CRM system to streamline sales processing.

Properties

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the 'Daten' property contains valid JSON or correctly formatted data as expected by the Xentral API, otherwise the request may fail.
• If using the multi-database option, verify that the 'Datenbankname' is correctly specified and accessible.
• Common errors include unknown operation or resource errors if incorrect parameters are provided; verify that 'resource' is set to 'order' and 'operation' to 'create'.
• Network or authentication errors may occur if the API key credential is missing or invalid.
