  • 6+years of continuous work
  • 7integrated carriers
  • 2accounting systems in real time
  • 0data re-typed by hand

Starting point

  • A custom content management system with no documentation and poor stability.
  • No connection to accounting; payments were matched by hand.
  • A catalogue of thousands of items managed entirely by hand.
  • No carrier integration, unstable hosting, no analytics.

Key decision

Instead of a risky full platform replacement, we gradually built an integration layer around the existing core. Every step was planned, documented and reversible.

What we did

Payments

Tatra banka payment gateway integration and automatic real-time payment matching across several accounts.

Accounting

Two-way synchronisation of orders, invoices and stock movements with MRP and Pohoda.

Catalogue

Automatic categories, product pages, prices, images and stock, including Czech-to-Slovak translation.

Shipping

Seven carriers with tracking links inside the order and shipping rules by weight and product type.

Orders

Order statuses change with payments and shipments; a QR payment code is printed on the invoice.

Operations

Hosting on our infrastructure, repeated zero-downtime migrations, domain and email management.

“Praktis.sk is not a project with a clear start and end. It is a living system that grows with the business.”
