SYSPRO Bot

The SYSPRO Bot lets organizations expose certain SYSPRO business functions to their operators, customers and suppliers in an instant message/chat-like interface. This can either be through Bot channel contacts (e.g. Skype) or a simple web control on their website.

These business functions are exposed in natural conversations over everyday channels to which users already have access, letting them conveniently surface information and action functions normally performed in the SYSPRO core product, from anywhere, at any time.

Exploring

The beneficial features of the SYSPRO Bot include:

The provision of digital citizens (Bots) across your organization, be they internal or supply chain focused, enable engaging connection points between stakeholders and the SYSPRO business solution.

With the application of Bots, you are now able to evaluate which of your repetitive processes can be 'trained' for the Bot to perform.

The SYSPRO Bot is practically always available due to the Azure Bot framework's SLA of more than 99% uptime.

The SYSPRO Bot uses natural language processing to create real-time conversations and information exchanges with users.

This emerging platform has unlimited potential for business applications, where it can include and analyze information from various sources to create efficiencies, improve processes and increase revenue, all with limited human intervention.

This results in being able to free up resources within your company to answer and even predict customer queries.

The SYSPRO Bot also allows custom skills to be acquired automatically, extending the Bot's functionality beyond the scope of ERP.

For example:

Custom skills such as leave applications can be handled by the SYSPRO Bot.

The creation of rules via the SYSPRO Bot or Rules Administrator activates any of the trained skills which can trigger the Bot to initiate a conversation.

For example:

If you set a price alert on a stock code via the Bot, this creates a rule in the SYSPRO Rules Engine, which in turn initiates a Bot conversation when the alert is triggered.

Proactive messages are pushed to all signed in channels. Therefore if a user is signed in on both Microsoft Teams and Skype, they will receive the proactive message on both channels.

The SYSPRO Bot Software Development Kit extends the SYSPRO Bot functionality beyond the standard skills provided by SYSPRO.

You can now easily create the functions (i.e. skills) that your organization requires without having to host a completely new bot.

These skills can then connect to SYSPRO business objects, external data sources and external applications.

For example:

You can create a custom skill for employees to process their leave applications, which connects to your internal leave application system.

Resources will be made available on the SYSPRO Learning Channel.

The SYSPRO Bot resources in Microsoft Azure include:

SYSPRO Bot Azure App Service

Acts as an IIS service and is the only Microsoft Azure resource in contact with the SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer service and SYSPRO 8 Reporting Host Service.

State Database

Stores the state of the conversation data.

LUIS

Language Understanding Intelligence Service (LUIS) interprets user phrases to analyze their intent.

Document Database

Contains documents to be accessed by users.

Bot Channel Registration

Handles all channel configurations and communication between the channel applications and the SYSPRO Bot.

For example:

A Skype message is sent to the SYSPRO Bot on a mobile device.

The message sends to the Skype server, and subsequently to the SYSPRO Bot, according to the channel configuration.

The SYSPRO Bot processes the message (using LUIS to understand the user’s message intent).

This includes the Bot Framework Authentication to ensure that only configured channels can communicate with the SYSPRO Bot Azure App Service.

SYSPRO Documents

Document requests, such as order acknowledgments or invoices, are communicated from the SYSPRO Bot directly to the SYSPRO 8 Reporting Host Service, using the SOAP port.

As this communication is coming from outside the App Server network, the SOAP ports need to be accessible from outside networks.

SYSPRO Data Communication

SYSPRO data requested by the SYSPRO Bot is communicated through the SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer service, using the SOAP port.

As this communication is coming from outside the App Server network, the SOAP ports need to be accessible from outside networks.

SYSPRO Instance

SYSPRO Bot settings that are configurable within the App Server include:

  • Fixed menu
  • Diagnostics
  • Sign In page configuration
  • Customization (menu options, menu layout and accessible skills)
  • XML Inputs
  • Email HTML templates
  • Document formats

The SYSPRO Bot functions are stored on the App Server in the ..\Base\Bot\Skills folder as .dll files. New and Custom skills can be added to this folder, and are then available within the SYSPRO Bot from the next new conversation.

Bot Alerts

This is only available from SYSPRO 8 2019 R2.

Rules that exist within the SYSPRO Rules Engine can trigger the SYSPRO Bot to start conversations. This can be via a message and even followed by an optional skill.

This is referred to as Proactive Messaging.

Bot Predictions

This is only available from SYSPRO 8 2019 R2.

Predictive functions (i.e. using the Predictions skill) are communicated directly between the SYSPRO Bot and the SYSPRO 8 Machine Learning service, as these access active AI Models.

A user that communicates with the SYSPRO Bot without signing in and being authenticated.

The Azure App service URL or endpoint where the SYSPRO Bot is hosted.

This address is provided by SYSPRO Cloud ERP after the SYSPRO Bot cloud configuration is completed and must be configured in the System Setup program (Artificial Intelligence tab).

For example:

https://sysproken.azurewebsites.net

A Binary Large Object (BLOB) is a collection of binary data stored as a single entity in a database management system.

Blobs are typically images, audio or other multimedia objects, though sometimes binary executable code is stored as a blob.

This is a Microsoft Azure resource used by SYSPRO to store the binary data of PDF documents produced by SYSPRO Reporting Services. SYSPRO then provides the user with a direct link to that document.

This data is securely uploaded as binary, but easily retrieved by the accessing user utilizing the unique link provided in the reply message.

A bot (short for robot) is an automated program that runs over the Internet.

Some bots run automatically, while others only execute commands when they receive input. The SYSPRO Bot is the latter, as you need to sign in and enter a commonly-used phase to start the conversation.

The SYSPRO Bot provides functionality over the SYSPRO ERP ecosystem. For the SYSPRO Bot to service user requests effectively, skills are used and are required to define specific pieces and areas of functionality.

In certain instances the SYSPRO Bot responds to the user using predefined templates to provide the information in a certain format.

These templates are called cards and are part of the Microsoft Bot framework.

Users can communicate with the SYSPRO Bot via different client applications - also called channels (e.g. Skype, Webchat, Facebook).

This is the field required by a Bot skill to perform its task or action. This can vary from 1 to many fields, depending on the task/action required by the Bot skill.

For example:

Posting a sales order with a quantity. The fields required by this skill are:

  • Quantity
  • Customer
  • Stock code

These are the fields required to uniquely identify SYSPRO data entities and concepts. They are used by the SYSPRO Bot infrastructure to service user requests/interactions effectively.

For example:

The skill to provide a list of invoices requires a Customer Code. The Bot will ask the user for a customer and use the entered value to verify that a valid customer was entered.

Key fields utilize the defined search configuration to verify the validity of a phrase.

Search configuration is defined using the Search Configuration program.

This refers to the mechanism provided by the SYSPRO Bot framework to search for and find relevant information within the context of the current skill and conversation.

Bot searches assist in the selection of Bot key fields and will loop until a valid entry is entered, or until the conversation ends.

The SYSPRO Bot provides functionality over the SYSPRO ERP ecosystem. To service user requests effectively, skills are used by the SYSPRO Bot and are required to define specific pieces and areas of functionality.

A skill is an area of specific functionality provided for by the SYSPRO Bot.

For example:

  • To query a customer, the SYSPRO Bot uses the Customer.Query skill.

  • When the SYSPRO Bot is asked by the user to view a specific invoice, the SYSPRO Bot uses the Invoice.ViewInvoice skill.

The language structure, grammar and phonetics used by the SYSPRO Bot to interact with users.

The configurable linguistics architecture of the SYSPRO Bot allows for the random selection of multiple phrases.

Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft to build, test, deploy, and manage applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centers.

It caters for:

  • Software as a service (SaaS)

  • Platform as a service (PaaS)

  • Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)

In addition, Microsoft Azure supports different programming languages, tools and frameworks (including Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems).

When the user interacts with the SYSPRO Bot, they use phrases and sentences to indicate what action is required.

These sentences or phrases are called utterances.

Applicable to SYSPRO business objects that require input options via a predefined XML structure.

Input options are specified using the relevant predefined XML structure associated with the business object. The values for the XML can be configured per business object based on user requirements.

The web chat is a stock-standard chat interface that can be hosted on a website.

A web chat can be a web control, but not all web controls are necessarily web chats. The web chat is a form of interacting with the Bot (i.e. a channel).

Starting

To use this feature, the following module(s) must be installed according to the terms of your software license agreement:

  • e.net System Manager

  • SYSPRO Ken the BOT

The following technology prerequisites are applicable to using this feature:

  • SYSPRO 8 Bot Service

  • SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer service

    The SYSPRO Bot requires access to this service's SOAP port (i.e. Net.TCP) in order to pick up the Bot skills and authenticate its conversations. Therefore, a valid endpoint must be configured in the System Setup program.

    This requires exceptions in the App Server's firewall, as well as exceptions and routing information in the Company's DNS configuration.

  • SYSPRO 8 Reporting Host Service

    This is used by the SYSPRO Bot for document functions, therefore the service needs to be externally accessible.

    This requires exceptions in the App Server's firewall, as well as exceptions and routing information in the Company's DNS configuration.

  • SYSPRO 8 Machine Learning service

    This optional prerequisite is used by the SYSPRO Bot for predictive functions as it accesses any active AI Models you have, therefore it is only required if you intend on using the Predictions skill.

    This requires exceptions in the App Server's firewall, as well as exceptions and routing information in the Company's DNS configuration.

  • SYSPRO 8 Rules Data Service and SYSPRO 8 Rules Engine Service

    These optional prerequisites are used by the SYSPRO Bot for alert functions, therefore they are only required if you intend on using any of the alert skills (e.g. Set Price Alert, My Alerts, Enable Alert Rule, Disable Alert Rule, Delete Alert Rule).

The following setup options must be configured to use this feature:

Artificial Intelligence System Setup

Setup Options > System Setup > Artificial Intelligence

  • Bot

    • Azure Bot website
    • Fixed menu
    • Diagnostics

    • Header image
    • Organization name
    • Organization website

Email/SMTP settings

Setup Options > Company > General

SMTP settings are required for the SYSPRO Bot to perform email functions.

  • Method when emailing

  • SMTP server IP address

  • Outgoing email address

  • Username

  • Password

  • Server port

  • Use SSL

Reporting

Setup Options > System Setup > Reporting

Server-side Printing is required for the SYSPRO Bot to access documents.

  • Reporting configuration

    This must be defined as Server-side reporting using SQL.

  • Reporting service

    This must be configured correctly with an external facing endpoint.

As the SYSPRO Bot makes use of SYSPRO Cloud ERP, there are certain processes that need to take place in order to gain access to this feature:

  1. Deployment
  2. Configuration

In order to attain a SYSPRO Bot Server, you first need to request a quote from SYSPRO Cloud ERP.

After you accept the quote, you are requested to provide the following:

  • Which channel(s) you require.
  • The name and description of your Bot.

  • An icon image for your Bot.

    Only .png files are accepted, with a maximum size of 30kb.

  • The SOAP port (i.e. endpoint) for your SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer.

  • The BaseDir entry for the Bot to connect to.

Once this has been completed, SYSPRO Cloud ERP then proceeds with the following actions:

  • Deployment of the SYSPRO Bot Server to Microsoft Azure, with all the relevant resources.
  • Configuration of your requested channels.
  • Connection between the SYSPRO Bot Server and your exposed SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer endpoint.

Once this has been configured, SYSPRO Cloud ERP will provide you with an Azure web address that lets SYSPRO know where the Bot is, as well as your chosen Bot channel contact URLs.

Most of the Bot Server and channel configuration is handled by SYSPRO Cloud ERP. However, after the initial configuration is complete, the following steps are required to deploy the SYSPRO Bot at your company:

  1. Capture the Azure web address (provided by SYSPRO Cloud ERP) in the Azure Bot website field of the Setup Options program (Setup Options > System Setup > Artificial Intelligence).

  2. You can further define the following customization for the SYSPRO Bot, if required:

    • Fixed menu

    • Diagnostics

    • Header image

    • Organization name

    • Organization website

  3. Ensure that your Reporting configuration is defined as Server-side reporting using SQL in the Reporting tab of the Setup Options program.

  4. Ensure that your Email/SMTP settings are configured correctly (Setup Options > Company > General).

  5. Add the web control (e.g. web chat) to your company website.

    Or

    Add the Bot as a contact in your required channel.

  • Multi-Factor Authentication and Single Sign-on are not supported for the SYSPRO Bot.

  • Only posting of automatic numbering keys is currently supported, however you can customize this in Microsoft SQL Server to allow for manual numbering.

  • The SYSPRO Bot does not perform validation on non-SYSPRO key fields (i.e. price).

  • Alpha-numeric values are not supported as the SYSPRO Bot only recognizes numeric values (i.e. 10 and not "ten").

  • Currently, the SYSPRO Bot is only available in English.

Solving

The Bot is refreshing the skills list.

The user's operator does not have access for the requested skill.

The SYSPRO 8 e.net Communications Load Balancer service is out of reach.

This could be due to the service or the App Server’s firewall not running currently.

This error occurs during a skill request. The skill failed to complete, but the conversation can continue.

This is a mandatory time-out. The SYSPRO Bot might still be processing your previous request and will reply shortly.

This error occurs if you attempt to use SYSPRO Ken the BOT without having the appropriate licensing in place.

To use this feature, the following module(s) must be installed according to the terms of your software license agreement:

  • e.net System Manager

  • SYSPRO Ken the BOT

At any time, you can send Exit and the SYSPRO Bot will end the conversation.

The next conversation will begin fresh.

After deployment, SYSPRO Cloud ERP will provide you with a Web Control embedded code.

This is a snippet of HTML code that you can inject anywhere on your website, in an appropriate location.

When using client-side reporting you are able to use most of the SYSPRO Bot functions, however printing documents is not available due to the fact that access to the SYSPRO 8 Reporting Host Service is required.

From SYSPRO 8 2020 R1, the SYSPRO Bot Software Development Kit extends the SYSPRO Bot functionality beyond the standard skills provided by SYSPRO.

You can now easily create the functions (i.e. skills) that your organization requires without having to host a completely new bot.

These skills can then connect to SYSPRO business objects, external data sources and external applications.

For example:

You can create a custom skill for employees to process their leave applications, which connects to your internal leave application system.

Resources will be made available on the SYSPRO Learning Channel.

Please contact SYSPRO Cloud Services for a quote.

You can define the SYSPRO Bot format settings for the following document types:

  • Order Acknowledgments
  • Delivery notes
  • Invoices
  • Quotes
  • Purchase Orders

From SYSPRO 8 2020 R1, you can define these formats using the Custom Configuration program (against the SYSPROBotDocumentFormatOptionsParameter entry located under the XML Parameters folder for default SYSPRO XML parameters).

These formats are configurable system-wide, by company, by role or by operator.

Prior to SYSPRO 8 2020 R1, you define these formats using the System Setup program (against the Bot Document formats located under the Artificial Intelligence tab).

You can configure the SYSPRO Bot skills available (as well as the function buttons associated with each skill) at role or operator level using the SYSPRO Bot Customization program:

  1. Open the SYSPRO Bot Customization program in SYSPRO Web UI (Avanti).

  2. Select the role or operator that you want to customize from the Configuration Level pane.

  3. Indicate the Access Level required for the selected role or operator.

    Select List to configure access against individual skills.

  4. Within the Allowed column of the Available Skills pane, indicate which skills or function buttons the selected role or operator can access.
  5. Save your configuration.

You can customize the skills available on the SYSPRO Bot main menu for specific roles or operators using the SYSPRO Bot Customization program:

  1. Open the SYSPRO Bot Customization program in SYSPRO Web UI (Avanti).

  2. Select the role or operator that you want to customize from the Configuration Level pane.

  3. Indicate the Access Level required for the selected role or operator.

    Select List to configure access against individual skills.

  4. Within the Main Menu column of the Available Skills pane, indicate which skills must appear on the SYSPRO Bot main menu for the selected role or operator.

    The Main Menu selection only applies to allowed skills.

  5. Save your configuration.

You can select any of the following targets that the SYSPRO Bot must use when a user requests a quote:

  • Customer

    This target type enables users to enter the customer code or search for an existing customer, when requesting a quote.

  • Contact

    This target type enables users to enter the contact code or search for an existing contact, when requesting a quote.

  • Prospect

    This target type enables users to enter any name against the quote.

You can configure these using the Custom Configuration program (against the SYSPROBotQuoteOptionsParameter entry located under the XML Parameters folder for the default SYSPRO XML parameters).

These formats are configurable system-wide, by company, by role or by operator.

In addition, the ShowLimitWarning option lets you indicate whether the customer's minimum order value must also be displayed by the SYSPRO Bot when users request a quote for an existing customer. When enabled, the SYSPRO Bot displays a warning during quote entry indicating the customer's Minimum order value as defined in the Customers program.

Additional training on the SYSPRO Bot language understanding is available from http://www.luis.ai, for contributor accounts added by SYSPRO Cloud Services.

Training options available include:

  • Add new Intents

    This is useful for custom developed skills or for linking to untrained SYSPRO skills.

  • Add new Entities

    These are the keyfields that the custom or SYSPRO skill requires.

  • Add new Utterances

    These are example phrases that users will send to the SYSPRO Bot requesting a skill to be executed.

After adding any new training data in the LUIS portal, you need to train the LUIS model with these new aspects:

  1. From the LUIS portal, select the Train button from the BUILD menu to train the updated model:

  2. Select the Publish button from the PUBLISH screen to publish the updated model:

Using

All operators have access to the SYSPRO Bot, however, using skills you can define what access an operator is allowed when interacting with the Bot.

If no security configuration is defined, then access is denied for all skills other than the Sign In Skill.

The levels of security that apply are:

  • 0 SYSPRO (i.e. shipped out with the release)

  • 1 SYSTEM (i.e. system-wide)

  • 2 Company (e.g. EDU1)

  • 3 Role (e.g. 001)

  • 4 Operator (e.g. ALAN)

Bot users require their SYSPRO Operator code to sign in and authenticate themselves, and once verified an entry is added to the BotOperatorMapping table within your system-wide database.

This authentication is per user, per channel and users remain authenticated on the channel until they either sign out or manually get removed from the BotOperatorMapping table.

Users can remain authenticated on different channels at the same time.

If an authenticated user returns to a conversation after a long period of inactivity, the bot will welcome him with his SYSPRO Operator name and state which company he is logged in as.

This period is dependent on how busy the Bot has been and if the Microsoft Azure service has been defined as Always on.

For example:

  • The respective operator's functional role applies.

  • The operator's business object access security applies.

  • If the user is recognized by the SYSPRO Bot as a Customer or Supplier, then these related fields within the Bot are set as that customer or supplier code as defined in the Operator Maintenance program of SYSPRO.

    These keys can’t be overridden and will remain in context.

  • An unauthenticated user (also known as an anonymous user) is able to view some, but not all of the SYSPRO Bot features.

  • Unauthenticated users use the _ _BOT security which includes program access for business object calls.

  • The _ _BOT entry in the system-wide BotCustomization table will be used to specify which skills this user has access to.

You can configure role or operator permissions and access using the SYSPRO Bot Customization program.

If you want to have a base control for all authenticated users and what they can access, then from a system-wide perspective you would add the customization for Level 1 - SYSTEM.

Using the SYSPRO Bot

The following steps detail how to start using the SYSPRO Bot:

  1. Add the SYSPRO Bot as a contact on your selected channel, or use the Web control.

  2. Start a conversation with a greeting (e.g. 'hi').

    • The SYSPRO Bot will respond with either a menu listing or an open ended question (depending on your company’s configuration preferences in SYSPRO).

  3. Request a skill (e.g. 'Create sales order')

    • If the skill requires any unknown keys, it will ask you to enter these or select a value, and then continue to the next key.
    • Once all the keys has been acquired, the SYSPRO Bot will process the requested skill and provide an output.
    • If the skill fails, the Bot will advise you and provide an error description.

After a skill completes, the SYSPRO Bot is ready for the next skill to be requested.

If the next skill requires some of the same keys, they will be remembered. Any additional keys will be asked for in sequence and extra keys from the previous skill will be discarded. However, if the same skill is being called again, all keys are discarded.

Customization at the most granular (i.e. lowest) level supersedes all other customization.

For example:

Operator ALAN is given access to skills 1 and 5. However, system level access is granted to skills 1, 2 and 5.

Operator ALAN only has access to skills 1 and 5.

Each organization has their own instance of the SYSPRO Bot (i.e. their own sign in page). Therefore, the sign In page is both secure and brandable, as the following aspects are customizable:

  • Header Image

  • Organization Name

  • Organization Website

This customization is possible from SYSPRO's Setup Options program at the options within the Artificial Intelligence System Setup tab.

The following example depicts a typical sign in page, highlighting the areas where this customization reflects:

The SYSPRO Bot menu can be customized in the SYSPRO Bot Customization program by the relevant level ID or to access particular skills.

Security types available when customizing access:

  • A - All (i.e. access allowed for all skills)

  • N - None (i.e. access denied for all skills)

  • L - List (i.e. specified list of skills allowed)

The SYSPRO Bot can use its own document formats that are setup and created in the same manner in which other SRS report templates are created. These document formats can be applied against the source documents that are attached to the emails.

You can define the SYSPRO Bot format settings for the following document types:

  • Order Acknowledgments
  • Delivery notes
  • Invoices
  • Quotes
  • Purchase Orders

From SYSPRO 8 2020 R1, you can define these formats using the Custom Configuration program (against the SYSPROBotDocumentFormatOptionsParameter entry located under the XML Parameters folder for default SYSPRO XML parameters).

These formats are configurable system-wide, by company, by role or by operator.

Prior to SYSPRO 8 2020 R1, you define these formats using the System Setup program (against the Bot Document formats located under the Artificial Intelligence tab).

If you indicate that the Blob Storage Azure option must be enabled when your Bot is configured by SYSPRO Cloud Services, the documents are then stored in Microsoft Azure blob storage. This allows the URL to your document to remain valid for longer, compared to the standard memory storage.

The SYSPRO Bot uses SYSPRO's Email/SMTP settings to email documents.

You can customize your HTML emailing template using Microsoft SQL Server and the customization can then be saved at system, company, role or operator level.

This customization is done on your system-wide database in theEspDataStore table, with the StoreName key defined as SYSPROBotDocumentEmail.

The key contains the following placeholders:

  • {DocumentType}

  • {DocumentNumber}

  • {BotName}

  • {CompanyImage}

The placeholders will then be populated with information based on the values. However, you can amend the email template that is sent out entirely.

The following sample code provides an example of this type of customization:

This example shows customization that is only available from SYSPRO 8 2019 R2, due to it containing the {BotService} place holder.

When the SYSPRO Bot asks you to input information, it only asks you for "key" information that is required to action a specific task.

For example:

When you ask the Bot to create a sales order.

However, as part of creating a sales order there may be additional information and values that you want to add as a standard, such as Salesperson. This is achievable by configuring XML inputs or parameters.

XML Parameters are customizable using SYSPRO's Custom Configuration program.

XML Input blobs are customizable using Microsoft SQL Server, from your system-wide database in the EspDataStore table.

Configurable XML Inputs:

  • APSQRY XMLIn

The SYSPRO Bot search functionality uses the same configuration as SYSPRO's Predictive Search, unless it is customized to search on additional columns within a table or linked tables.

This customization is possible from SYSPRO's Search Configuration program.

Regardless of the configuration, the first 3 unique columns returned are displayed in the search results carousel.

If only one result is being returned by the search, then that key value will be selected and the search will exit.

When searching for a particular key field, you can either enter the key field's description, or type '*' to return the first 5 related records.

  • Allowing the SYSPRO Bot to complete its current process before sending a new message assists in better performance.

  • Sometimes the first message, after a period of time, can take a few seconds to process. This is most likely the Azure App Server starting up.

  • When searching for a particular key field, typing '*' returns the first 5 records.

  • If you get stuck in a search loop or want to cancel a skill while in a search, you can end the conversation at anytime, by entering Exit and the Bot will end the conversation.

The following indicates areas in the product that may be affected by implementing this feature:

This program lets you modify various permission aspects of the SYSPRO Bot.

Things you can do in this program include:

  • Configure the SYSPRO Bot skills available at role or operator level

  • Customize the action buttons associated with each SYSPRO Bot skill

  • Customize the skills available on the SYSPRO Bot main menu for specific roles or operators

This program is accessed from the Bot Role Customization section of the SYSPRO Web UI (Avanti) program menu.

Referencing

The following channels can be used to communicate with the SYSPRO Bot:

  • Web Chat

  • Facebook Messenger

  • Skype

  • Microsoft Teams

  • Skype for Business

  • Telegram

  • Kik

  • GroupMe

The user interface of each channel is noticeably different and the setup of these channels are controlled by SYSPRO Cloud Services, but some would require additional configuration from your side.

For example:

The Facebook Messenger channel requires configuration from the SYSPRO Cloud ERP and from the customer’s Facebook account, as both configurations require keys generated from the other configuration.

After channels are configured, you are supplied with a contact URL to add the Bot as a contact.

The following information can assist you in determining which channel(s) your company would or could make use of:
