Freedom to Choose the Best Hosting
√	With the XL Commerce integration module for Prophet 21's Commerce Center, you no longer have to host your website inside your corporate firewall. This provides you with the ability to choose the best e-commerce hosting option for your organization while still maintaining your Commerce Center system internally.
√	To achieve this, we integrate your e-commerce website with your Prophet 21 Commerce Center in both batch and real-time, depending on the type of data and transaction being requested by your customer.

Real-time Pricing and Availability
√	Commerce Center allows your organization to use complex pricing algorithms and the XL Commerce integration module allows your customers to see this pricing online, in real-time, as they would if they placed an order over the phone.	Pricing / Availability Larger Image
√	With the XL Commerce integration module, Availability of each product can be shown from single or multiple warehouse locations, depending on your business requirements.
√	And when you have to take Commerce Center down for maintenance, your customers can still view your products and place orders. List pricing will be shown temporarily and the correct pricing will be used when the order is imported into your Commerce Center.

Real-time Order Processing
√	XL Commerce is directly integrated with P21's Commerce Center components. This means that P21's internal components create the import files that are imported and displayed on your e-commerce website.
√	The XL Commerce integration module uses Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) to ensure all orders created by the website are reliably and securely placed in the Commerce Center import directory
√	The XL Commerce integration module allows for pricing overrides so that online-only discounts can be applied
