The Softone integration connects your ERP system to Butterflai, bringing accounting, inventory, and operations data into the AI's analytical reach. This is particularly valuable for businesses that rely on Softone for day-to-day financial and operational management.
Before you start
Unlike other integrations, Softone requires a one-time technical setup performed by your Softone ERP consultant (your Softone partner). This is because Butterflai needs to install data extraction scripts on your Softone instance and activate Web Services for secure communication. You cannot complete this setup on your own - your ERP consultant handles the technical side.
How the setup works
Contact the Butterflai team. Let us know you want to connect Softone. We will ask for your ERP consultant's contact details.
We coordinate with your consultant. The Butterflai team sends a technical package to your ERP consultant containing the required scripts and installation instructions.
Your consultant configures Softone. They install the scripts, activate Web Services, and create a dedicated web user for Butterflai's API access. This typically takes a few days depending on your consultant's availability.
Your consultant sends us the connection details. Once the setup is complete, your consultant provides us with the connection variables (URL, credentials, and configuration IDs).
We configure and test. The Butterflai team enters the connection details, runs a test sync, and verifies that data is flowing correctly.
You are notified. Once the initial sync completes, your Softone data appears in the platform and the integration card in Settings shows as Connected.
What your ERP consultant needs
Your consultant should confirm the following before starting:
Softone ERP version 6.00.622.11585 or later
The Soft1 Open Enterprise Engine license (Web & Mobile)
S1 SQL Scripts and Advanced JavaScript Editor modules available
Default (vanilla) Softone configuration works best. Custom fields may require additional adaptation - the Butterflai team will advise if this applies.
What data syncs
Sales and Purchases - order headers, line items, invoicing, credit and debit notes
Accounts Receivable / Accounts Payable - outstanding invoices, payment status
Customers and Suppliers - master data records
Bank Transactions - banking movements and account balances
Inventory - stock levels, product movements
When to use
Connect Softone if you want the AI to answer questions about your financial position, cash flow, outstanding receivables, inventory levels, and operational metrics -- all drawn directly from your ERP without manual exports.
