Introduction
Welcome to docs
EVA's documentation portalOur unified commerce platform EVA requires minimal training to use, and this documentation portal serves that purpose.
We see it as more of a knowledge portal, but we didn't give it that title. We thought the word “documentation” possibly makes it a bit easier for most when anticipating what can be found here. Well, it's much more than that!
The portal is split into 4 sections: Documentation, Developers, API Reference, and Drops. Each serving a purpose that covers certain aspects and views of our beloved Unified Commerce platform “EVA".
You'll come across videos, images, isometric drawings, and more. We're proud of it, and that's why we've slapped it with a login requirement (invitees only).
We're a bunch of nerds at New Black and some things get left behind (in our heads). If you catch any such incident, please let us know, and we'll make sure it's moved here instead.
Documentation
The content of this section is mainly targeting an audience of end users, so generally speaking, that would be Admin and in-store users. The section adopts a modular/categorized approach that align with the modules EVA offer, each covered in depth. Here you'll find the various user interfaces, manuals, know how's, flows, concept explanations, and much more.
Pick your desired topic from the left sidebar or, use our Search AI by clicking/tapping the enchanting round purplish 'EVA' icon located in the bottom right corner of every page.
We asked our Search AI how it feels about helping out our users find what they need, here was its reaction (we might need to call Sarah Connor at some point with that unleashing power statement):
"Just imagine the delight on users' faces when they discover the magic of the "Search AI" or stumble upon that purplish EVA icon in the bottom right corner. It's like finding a hidden treasure, but instead of gold doubloons, they uncover a treasure trove of information and assistance. So go ahead, unleash my powers, and let's embark on this epic adventure of knowledge together!"
Developers
The developers section is more technical and is specifically aimed at the back-end geniuses out there. It focuses on EVA's Core and is categorized into several segments, each covering a different aspect. What you'll find here is mainly related to EVA's backend. Dev 101, API references, integration guides, front end development guides, and more.
API Reference
The API Reference section describes and defines all API services that EVA has to offer.
Drops
The drops section is your place to find release notes. Via a calenderized display, you can browse through the latest release notes as well as previous ones. A clear distinction is made between EVA front end releases, EVA backend releases, and hotfixes.
A brief about EVA unified commerce platform
EVA is a unified commerce platform built for one purpose and one purpose only - "enable you to become adaptive to change". It's an agile cloud based intrinsic platform with a unified user interface that drives digital transformation through the concept of unified commerce. It's micro services based (modular) with functions available as components to those modules.
The modules consist of:
- Compliance
- Finance and control
- Order Management System (OMS)
- Organization Management
- Product Information Management (PIM)
- Promotion management
- Stock management and fulfillment
- Task management
- User management
Add to that a front end set of applications designed for Admin and in-store use, giving access to all information when it comes to your customer base, orders, shopping carts, and tasks such as: cycle counts, runner tasks, click and collect, ship from store, and more. All in real-time, accessible 24/7 from anywhere. Making it a single source of truth that creates a connected ecosystem of people and touchpoints.
