Codeless Platforms’ BPA (Business Process Automation) Platform enables organisations to build powerful automated business processes while leveraging the power of existing systems.

BPA Platform enables you to automate business processes and integrate systems quickly and easily. Its innovative drag and drop technology removes the need for coding to ensure your business achieves its true potential with minimal effort.

The product is built around the central concepts of tasks and steps to provide the ability to build ultimately flexible automation processes with logical building blocks.

These processes integrate seamlessly with existing information sources, such as Stream, without the need for complex programming.

Integrate Stream with your existing business systems to close the loop between your retail, inventory, warehousing and/or logistics operations.

How Codeless Platforms can help you integrate your disparate systems to improve the flow of your information

The Codeless Platforms technology empowers businesses to optimise their processes with existing systems through the use of four key capabilities.

Data Integration & Synchronisation

Through a ‘codeless’ environment and specialist connector tools or web services (REST or SOAP), organisations can slash the cost of data integration and synchronisation whilst simultaneously safeguarding the upgrade path of their primary application(s).

Report & Document Automation

The Report & Document Automation capability automates the creation and distribution of internal or external reports or documents.

Notifications & Alerts

The Notifications & Alerts capability provides you with the ability to automatically distribute email and SMS messages 24/7, 365 days a year.

Workflows 

Whether your workflow process involves a single level or a multistage workflow authorisation process, our capability enables you to start small but scale quickly.

Using Zapier to connect with Stream

One of the first questions people ask when using Stream to manage their deliveries and collections is usually:

“How do we get our orders into Stream?”

The good news is, as well as using one of our ever growing list of existing integrations; our API to integrate themselves; a CSV upload; or manually entering order details you can also use Zapier to connect with Stream.

You can also connect your Zapier account to automate the process of bringing orders and jobs into Stream from your web application of choice – be that Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce  – or any one of the thousands available on Zapier.

Connect Shopify to Stream

Are you one of the 2 million businesses across the world that uses Shopify to create and run their online retail stores?

If you’re shipping those products and goods in your own vehicles, then you can use Zapier to automatically send order information from Shopify into Stream.

Once in Stream, you can optimise your delivery (and collection routes), communicate with customers and collect proof of delivery as well as a host of other functions.
