How to integrate NEXT ENGINE with Notion to add entry and exit information created in NEXT ENGINE to Notion

m.i

Companies responsible for managing e-commerce sites and inventory are required to manage daily inventory information accurately and quickly.
Although it is an important task, manually transferring inventory information from NEXT ENGINE to Notion can be time-consuming and labor-intensive.
This article introduces a method to automatically add inventory information to Notion when it is created in NEXT ENGINE by integrating NEXT ENGINE with Notion.
Let's reduce manual data entry and transcription work to improve operational efficiency.

Recommended for:

  • Personnel who use NEXT ENGINE and Notion but find data transcription and information sharing cumbersome
  • Administrators aiming to streamline inventory management and automate inventory data management tasks
  • Executives using multiple tools who want to improve the transparency of business processes
  • Leaders who want to reduce training costs for new employees and part-timers and ensure smooth business handover
  • Those who want to strengthen information collaboration between departments and improve the accuracy and speed of overall operations

Benefits and Examples of Integrating NEXT ENGINE and Notion

Benefit 1: Streamlining Inventory Management

Automating operations by integrating NEXT ENGINE and Notion significantly reduces manual data entry and transcription work.
This allows the time previously spent on daily routine tasks to be allocated to other tasks, potentially reducing labor costs and working hours.
For example, companies engaged in e-commerce had to manually enter product inventory data into both NEXT ENGINE and Notion, which made errors likely and required significant time for corrections.
However, by automating this process, employees can be freed from tedious administrative tasks and focus on high-value tasks such as improving product pages and marketing strategies.
Furthermore, as the speed of information updates improves, it becomes possible to make quick decisions using accurate and up-to-date data, leading to an overall improvement in operational efficiency.

Benefit 2: Reducing Training Costs

Traditionally, when managing data manually using multiple systems, it was necessary to teach system operations and data entry rules from scratch, which could prolong the training period, especially for complex procedures.
However, by automatically synchronizing inventory data from NEXT ENGINE to Notion, the tasks new employees need to learn can be simplified.
For example, warehouse staff only need to perform inventory operations in NEXT ENGINE, and the inventory data is automatically reflected in Notion, allowing them to check all necessary information for task management and report creation in Notion.
This eliminates the need to learn different operation methods for each tool, enabling new staff to become accustomed to the job in a short period.
Additionally, preventing confusion and errors caused by switching between tools contributes to improved operational efficiency.

Benefit 3: Enhancing Transparency of Business Processes

Integrating NEXT ENGINE and Notion can enhance the transparency of business processes.
Since inventory information is automatically added to Notion, inventory data and related tasks are centrally visualized, allowing everyone to share the latest information.
This prevents information leaks and communication errors, enabling quick understanding of the progress of operations.
For example, when the logistics team ships a product, that information is timely reflected on Notion's inventory management page, allowing the sales team to check the latest inventory status and respond appropriately to orders.
By clarifying the process in this way, collaboration between departments is strengthened, and overall operations proceed smoothly.

Now, let's explain how to add inventory information to Notion when it is created in NEXT ENGINE using the no-code tool Yoom.

[What is Yoom]

How to Add Inventory Information to Notion When Created in NEXT ENGINE

This can be achieved by receiving inventory information using the NEXT ENGINE API and adding NEXT ENGINE's inventory information to a database using Notion's API.
Generally, programming knowledge is required to achieve this, but with the no-code tool Yoom, it can be easily accomplished without programming knowledge.

This time, the process is as follows.
Let's set it up together!

  • Integrate NEXT ENGINE and Notion as a My App.
  • Copy the template.
  • Set the trigger for NEXT ENGINE as the starting point of the flow and configure the subsequent Notion operations.
  • Turn on the trigger button and verify the operation of the integration flow between NEXT ENGINE and Notion.

Step 1: My App Integration

Integrating My App first will make the subsequent settings proceed smoothly.
First, we will integrate your current NEXT ENGINE with Yoom.
From the left side of the Yoom page, select My App → New Connection.

Please refer to this link to set up the company ID.

Next, integrate with Notion.
First, please create a database. (Detailed settings like headers can be done later.)
Once logged in, please check the page you want to access.

(This is to display the pages you want to add in the subsequent database integration.)

If NEXT ENGINE and Notion are integrated into My App, you're all set.

Step 2: Set Triggers and Actions

Open the template page and click 'Try this template'.

If you are using Yoom, please log in, and if you are new, please register as a member.
If you proceed as is, the template will be automatically copied to your workspace.
Please change the template name as needed.
Click on My Projects on the left to display the template you just copied.
Click the ellipsis (...) on the right and select Edit.

Items to Prepare

  • A Notion database where NEXT ENGINE's inventory information can be transcribed.
    (Please set the items you want to transcribe in the header.)

Now, let's set up the app trigger.
Select "When inventory information is created".
You can change the title as you like.
After confirming the account information to be linked, proceed to the next step.
Please enter the required fields.

  • Trigger activation interval: You can choose from intervals of 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes.
    ※ The selection of activation intervals varies depending on the plan.

Please create test inventory information in NEXT ENGINE here.
Once created, return to the Flowbot and conduct a test.
If the inventory information is reflected in the output, save it.
(Setting the output item name in the Notion header makes it easier to understand.)

Next, click "Add Record".
Please also confirm the account information to be linked here.
Link the database.

Proceed to the next step and select the values of the records to be added from the output.

Set the remaining items in the same way.

Test this as well, and if successful, save it.
Thank you for your hard work up to this point.
Even someone like me who is not familiar with programming was able to proceed easily.

Other Automation Examples Using NEXT ENGINE

Additionally, Yoom has templates using NEXT ENGINE, so let me introduce a few!

1.A flow that adds stock in/out information to Google Sheets when it is created in NEXT ENGINE.

This is recommended for those who manage stock in/out information using Google Sheets.
By automating, you can save the trouble of data entry and work more efficiently.

2.This is a flow to add a confirmed shipping order slip from NEXT ENGINE to Microsoft Excel.

This is recommended for those who manage confirmed shipping order slips in Microsoft Excel.
You can reduce the work between NEXT ENGINE and Microsoft Excel.

3.This is the flow for notifying Slack when an order slip is confirmed for shipment in NEXT ENGINE.

This allows you to automate notifications for order slips confirmed for shipment.
By sending messages to a Slack channel, team members can share information even if they are not in the office.

Summary

This time, we introduced the flow bot "Add to Notion when NEXT ENGINE creates inbound/outbound information".
By integrating NEXT ENGINE with Notion, centralized data management and automation of business processes can be achieved.
Additionally, you can gain many benefits such as reducing manual errors, improving operational efficiency, and simplifying training for new employees.
Especially by utilizing Yoom, these integrations can be done without any specialized knowledge through no-code solutions.

Why not take this opportunity to take a step towards improving operational efficiency?

The person who wrote this article
m.i
I have experienced finance-related work for about 3 years since I graduated as a new graduate. Due to the industry, there are so many tasks that are done manually, and I came across Yoom when I thought that if automated, I could do more other work. I'm impressed every day by the convenience of Yoom while writing a blog. I try to make the structure easy to understand.
