The Challenge

Disconnected Systems, Disrupted Operations: The BNG & Epicor Challenge

Operating BNG and Epicor in silos creates significant operational inefficiencies, leading to delayed information, manual data entry, and potential revenue loss. Businesses struggle to maintain a single source of truth, impacting customer satisfaction and strategic decision-making.

  • Manual data entry between BNG and Epicor for orders, inventory, or financial transactions is time-consuming and error-prone.
  • Lack of real-time inventory visibility leads to overselling, stockouts, and inaccurate fulfillment promises.
  • Delayed financial reconciliation and GL postings due to disconnected payment and invoicing systems.
  • Inconsistent customer and vendor master data across both platforms causes operational friction and reporting inaccuracies.
  • Complex, custom point-to-point integrations are brittle, expensive to maintain, and difficult to scale.
  • Limited visibility into the end-to-end order or procurement lifecycle across BNG and Epicor.

Technical Deep Dive: BNG & Epicor Integration Architecture

Our iPaaS provides the robust framework for connecting BNG and Epicor, leveraging their respective APIs and event capabilities to ensure secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange. The architecture is designed for reliability and extensibility.

Data Flow Steps

Connection Establishment: Securely connect to BNG via OAuth 2.0 or API Keys and Epicor via OAuth 2.0 (Client Credentials Grant) or token-based authentication.

Event Listener/Polling: Configure iPaaS to listen for BNG webhooks (e.g., new Sales Order, Inventory Update) or Epicor BPM triggers. For non-event-driven data, scheduled polling with optimized query filters is used.

Data Extraction: Extract relevant data from the source system (BNG or Epicor) using their respective API endpoints (e.g., `/api/v1/sales-orders` for BNG, `/api/v2/odata/.../SalesOrders` for Epicor).

Data Transformation & Mapping: Utilize the iPaaS's visual mapping canvas to transform source data schema into the target system's required format. AI assists in suggesting mappings and inferring business rules.

Data Validation: Implement comprehensive data validation rules within the iPaaS to ensure data quality and prevent invalid data from entering BNG or Epicor. AI-driven anomaly detection flags unusual patterns.

Data Loading: Post the transformed and validated data to the target system via its API (e.g., `POST` to Epicor `/SalesOrders` endpoint, `PUT` to BNG `/api/v1/inventory/{item_id}`).

Error Handling & Retries: Implement robust error handling with automated retries (exponential backoff) for transient API failures and dead-letter queues for persistent issues.

Status Updates & Notifications: Propagate status changes (e.g., Epicor order fulfillment status back to BNG) and send alerts for critical integration failures.

Data Touchpoints

BNG: Customer, Product, Sales Order, Inventory Item, Invoice, Payment, Vendor, Purchase Order, General Ledger Entry, Shipment
Epicor: Customer, SalesOrder, Part, Supplier, PurchaseOrder, Invoice (AR), JobHead, LaborDtl, GLAccount, CashReceipt

"The integration flow typically starts with an event or schedule in either BNG or Epicor. The iPaaS acts as the central orchestrator, securely extracting data from the source system, transforming it to match the target system's schema, and then pushing it via API. Error handling, logging, and monitoring are continuously active within the iPaaS, ensuring data integrity and operational visibility."

How Middleware Integration Works

Benefits of Integrating BNG

Integrating BNG fosters greater efficiency and data accuracy. Automate your critical business processes to deliver consistently outstanding results.

Hover over the steps on the right to see detailed integration points.
Data Mapping

Harmonized Data Entities & Intelligent Field Mapping

Achieving seamless integration requires a clear understanding of how key business entities map between BNG and Epicor. Our iPaaS provides a visual canvas, augmented by AI, to define these mappings and apply necessary transformations, ensuring data consistency and integrity.

Customer

Represents a customer record, central to sales, AR, and CRM processes.

BNG Fields

CustomerID ExternalID CompanyName FirstName LastName Email BillingAddress ShippingAddress PaymentTerms CreditLimit

Epicor Fields

CustNum CustID Name Address1 City State Zip Country ContactName PhoneNum EmailAddress

Mapping Notes

BNG's `ExternalID` is crucial for linking to Epicor's `CustID` or an external CRM ID. Address fields require careful mapping for consistency. Consider 'ShipTo' and 'BillTo' relationships in Epicor.
