Symmy connects Lokia with Helios Orange. Orders flow from Lokia into Helios Orange, while product and stock data as well as documents travel the other way. For this pair we transfer 3 agendas — each one separately, in the direction and interval you choose. A basic connection of one agenda takes 6–12 hours of work depending on its type; we will refine the exact scope after an initial meeting.

What we transfer and how often
| Module | Direction | Default interval |
|---|---|---|
| Orders received | Lokia → Helios Orange | 15 min |
| Product Cards | Helios Orange → Lokia | 60 min |
| Stock availability | Helios Orange → Lokia | 60 min |
E-shops are the most common counterparty, but the same modules also flow to CRM, WMS or B2B portals. These values are defaults, not fixed rules. The direction and interval can be changed for each module, and modules not listed here can be added — we shorten the interval when your operation needs a faster response, or extend it when less frequent synchronisation is enough.
How the connection works
On the Lokia side we use: API + file-based communication; SaaS (AWS). We connect Helios Orange via: REST via eServer, or database procedures.
Regarding licences: eServer carries its own licences; the database route requires none. We will verify this during the initial analysis so your budget accounts for it from the start.
What to watch out for
-
1
Choosing the right route: eServer or the database.
The REST layer via eServer is more stable across Helios updates, while the database connection requires no additional licences. For older installations we first assess what makes sense operationally and budget-wise.
-
2
Custom modifications change how the agendas behave.
After years in operation, Orange tends to be customised — custom columns, follow-up actions, code lists. We tune the integration against your installation, not against a default Helios, otherwise writes behave differently than you'd expect.
-
3
The e-shop shows prices with VAT, the ERP without it.
Converting prices between the systems creates a rounding difference that adds up across hundreds of documents. That's why we agree at the outset which side is authoritative for the price — we can round, send VAT-exclusive prices per the ERP, or the other way around. What matters is that the result reconciles with your accounting.

Once the WMS is live, Lokia is the source of truth for stock.
The ERP and e-shop must defer to Lokia's stock levels — when each system keeps its own inventory, the numbers drift apart within days. We therefore set up the flows so that one place decides about stock.
-
5
Partial dispatches and split orders.
The warehouse may fulfil an order in several instalments. We agree up front how partial fulfilment propagates to the e-shop and the ERP — otherwise the customer sees "shipped" on an order of which only half has left.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the integration cost?
We charge 85 € excl. VAT per hour. Connecting one module takes 6–12 hours depending on its type, more for larger systems — we confirm the exact scope after an initial call. The calculator above gives an estimate for your combination of modules.
Do I need an extra licence or module for the integration?
eServer carries its own licences; the database route requires none. We will verify the details during the initial analysis.
What happens when Helios Orange is unavailable?
The synchronisation retries the connection in the next interval, and keeps retrying until it reconnects. An alert goes out the moment the problem is detected, so you will know about the outage before it shows up in your orders.
