Connect RetailVista and QlikView

Connecting RetailVista and QlikView for a company could allow sales and inventory data from RetailVista to be used in QlikView’s analytics environment. This could support more detailed reporting and business intelligence tasks by making operational data from the retail system available for analysis and visualization within QlikView.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between RetailVista and QlikView around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect RetailVista and QlikView?

A company operating both RetailVista and QlikView could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between their retail management and business intelligence platforms. Without a connection, staff may need to manually enter the same sales, inventory, or customer data into each system, which increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable time. Disconnected systems can also lead to records diverging over time, with each platform holding slightly different versions of key information. This can result in business decisions being made on outdated or inconsistent data, undermining the accuracy of reports and insights. If a connection were established, it could allow for the transfer of sales transactions, inventory levels, and product or customer records from RetailVista into QlikView, supporting more timely and accurate analysis. QlikView could then be used to generate reports and dashboards that reflect up-to-date figures from RetailVista, supporting better operational and strategic decisions. The specific data that could be exchanged would depend on what each system makes accessible through its API and would need to be determined for each company’s situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what RetailVista and QlikView make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
