LaGarde Launches New Interface with Microsoft Dynamics GP Integration.

LaGarde StoreFront Interface Easily Integrates as Web Stores Grow

OLATHE, Kan. -- A new LaGarde interface, developed in conjunction with Microsoft, integrates LaGarde's StoreFront e-commerce solution with the Microsoft Dynamics GP business management solution. The result: an online store that talks seamlessly with the back office.

The interface was built using Microsoft Dynamics GP webservices to ensure smooth integration of order data, customer information and inventory with LaGarde solutions. The interface eliminates accounting inefficiencies for retailers with more than one Web store and optimizes their bottom line.

"Using this interface, Microsoft Dynamics GP can easily integrate with LaGarde's StoreFront across multiple Web stores for inventory management, client orders, payment and shipping," said Joe Whelan, LaGarde CEO. "We have a long history with Microsoft, and we're proud to be announcing this latest accomplishment."

Other features of the LaGarde StoreFront interface include:

* Flexible field mapping and scheduling

* Passing encrypted credit card information for processing by a Microsoft Dynamics GP third-party add-on

* Scheduled synchronizations for every touch point

* Built-in reporting system

"Our Microsoft Dynamics ISV partners play an integral role in providing customers with a variety of customized solutions that extend the reach of our products, and the LaGarde StoreFront interface is a great example of this added value," said Jon Pratt, senior director of Microsoft Dynamics GP, Microsoft Dynamics SL and Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System.
