Data Mapping

Key Entities and Intelligent Data Mapping

Connecting Dynamics 365 and Dynamics GP involves intricate data mapping due to differing data models and terminology. Our iPaaS provides a visual, AI-assisted mapping canvas that simplifies this complexity, ensuring accurate and consistent data flow for critical business entities.

Customer / Account

Synchronizes customer master data, including billing, shipping, contact details, and credit information, ensuring a unified customer view.

Dynamics 365 Fields

Account (accountid, name, accountnumber, primarycontactid, address1_composite) Contact (contactid, firstname, lastname, emailaddress1, parentcustomerid)

Dynamics GP Fields

Customer (RM00101) (CUSTNMBR, CUSTNAME, ADRSCODE, ADDRESS1, CITY, STATE, ZIPCODE, PHONE1, EMAIL)

Mapping Notes

Dynamics 365 'Account' typically maps to GP 'Customer'. 'Contact' in D365 can map to GP customer contact fields or be a related entity. Requires careful handling of 'accountnumber' to 'CUSTNMBR' for matching. Address composite fields from D365 require parsing for GP's structured address fields. Deduplication rules are critical.
