OPERATIONAL ALERTS

See what needs attention before it disrupts commerce.

Pocketknife Alerts gives administrators one place to identify, investigate and resolve operational problems across connected Shopify, ERP and B2B workflows. Surface failed synchronisations, invalid records, order-processing errors, pricing failures and integration health issues without searching across separate systems.

ONE PLACE FOR OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS

Stop hidden integration problems becoming customer problems.

When product, customer, pricing and order data moves between systems, failures need to be visible and actionable. Alerts brings active issues, affected records and recommended actions into one administrative view.

Failed product synchronisation

Identify missing SKUs, invalid price books, tax mapping failures, and synchronisation blockages before buyers see them.

Invalid customer data

Flag incorrect delivery address details, invalid ERP customer keys, broken tax-exempt credentials, and misconfigured payment terms.

Order-processing errors

Catch failed checkouts, ERP export structure problems, credit limit rejections, and inventory blockages holding up shipping.

Pricing failures

Highlight contract pricing sync delays, corrupted tier discounts, volume break inconsistencies, and base price verification warnings.

Integration health issues

Monitor API connection timeouts, payload structure errors, database locks, and response delays across connected infrastructure.

Unsuccessful quote reminders

Track abandoned B2B buyer quotes, expired sales rep proposals, and routing bottlenecks waiting for administrator approval.

OPERATIONAL STATUS AT A GLANCE

See what failed, where it happened and what to do next.

Administrators receive full visibility into system issues. Search, filter, and review active or resolved alerts in one place, backed by recommended actions that clarify how to resolve the underlying problem fast.

View active and resolved alerts

Keep a clear history of system operations. Administrators can view current errors that require intervention alongside historical logs showing when issues were cleared.

Search and filter with ease

Find exactly what you are looking for by narrowing alerts down by specific integration category, resolution status, date, or target Shopify/ERP record key.

Monitor recurring problems

Track chronic or repeating errors across connected platforms. Identify weak nodes in your system stack by highlighting recurring transaction failures over time.

ADMINISTRATIVE NOTIFICATION CONTROLS

Keep the right people informed without creating more noise.

Manage how and when your operations team receives updates. Pocketknife puts notification rules and routing directly in the hands of administrators, ensuring high priority alerts bypass delays while transient issues stay quiet.

Email alerts

Route detailed technical summaries and diagnostic logs directly to specific systems administrators or shared developer inboxes.

Slack integration

Send instant notifications to dedicated operational Slack channels so on-duty teams can immediately spot and coordinate on critical alerts.

Smart batching & delay rules

Batch rapid related alerts to avoid alert fatigue. Instruct the engine to delay notifications for temporary, self-correcting problems.

AUTOMATED WORKFLOW LIFE CYCLE

Alerts close when the problem is fixed—and return if it happens again.

When the underlying problem is resolved, Pocketknife automatically closes the related alert. If the same problem occurs again, the alert reopens so administrators retain a clear and current view of operational health.

Step 1

Pocketknife detects a problem

The integration engine spots an operational issue, such as a missing ERP contract rate or syntax validation failure, during live sync.

Step 2

An alert is created

An active alert immediately registers in the Pocketknife Alert Centre, surfacing the issue category and affected records.

Step 3

The administrator reviews the affected record

The admin reviews the error summary, checks recommended next steps, and views the underlying Shopify and ERP records.

Step 4

The underlying problem is resolved

The administrator updates the record directly at the source—fixing the invalid field in Shopify or the pricing record inside the ERP.

Step 5

The alert closes automatically

Pocketknife checks the sync status on its next pass, detects that the error has been cleared, and automatically closes the active alert.

Step 6

The alert reopens if the problem returns

If the same underlying error manifests on a subsequent transaction, the alert reopens automatically to keep visibility current.
