Which customers are about to stop coming back?
By the time you notice a regular has gone quiet, they have booked somewhere else. The warning signs were spread across your accounts: a complaint, a missed visit, a failed card payment. No single tool saw all of it.
How askotter handles it
askotter reads SAP and WooCommerce side by side, so it can spot the signs that a customer is drifting away.
A person checks the result before it reaches you. This is part of our digital marketing services work.
How SAP and WooCommerce records line up
SAP and WooCommerce both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.
Shared between the two: the customer email address.
What customer retention uses from each
Customer retention needs repeat behaviour from the same customer over time.
From SAP that means reorder intervals per account. From WooCommerce it means days since each customer's last order.
WooCommerce is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
SAP on its own
SAP holds the booked order, the invoice and the customer master. It has no record of the marketing that produced the order.
Timing. SAP data usually reaches outside systems in scheduled extracts, so it runs as current as the extract schedule your ERP team sets.
Access. Read-only OData services or scheduled exports set up with your ERP team.
WooCommerce on its own
WooCommerce sees the order and, on recent versions, its source tag. It cannot see ad cost or the visits that did not buy.
Timing. WooCommerce writes each order when it is placed, and recent versions save the order's source and UTM values with it.
Access. The WooCommerce REST API with a read-only key.
