Dynamics AX & Oracle EBS Integration: Technical Architecture & Data Flow

Our iPaaS provides a robust, flexible, and secure framework for integrating Dynamics AX and Oracle EBS. It abstracts the complexities of each system's native integration capabilities, offering a unified platform for orchestration, data transformation, and monitoring.

Data Flow Steps

Source System Event/Trigger: Data change or event occurs in either Dynamics AX or Oracle EBS (e.g., new Sales Order in AX, AP Invoice created in EBS).

iPaaS Listener/Connector: Our platform's dedicated connector (e.g., AX AIF Service listener, EBS REST API poller/webhook) captures the event or extracts data.

Data Extraction & Transformation: Raw data is extracted, normalized into a canonical format, and transformed using visual mapping tools to match the target system's schema. AI assists in suggesting mappings and validating data.

Business Logic & Validation: Conditional logic, data validation rules, and custom business processes are applied within the iPaaS workflow.

Target System API Call: Transformed and validated data is pushed to the target system using its appropriate API (e.g., Oracle EBS OEORDERPUB, Dynamics AX AIF/VendInvoiceService).

Error Handling & Monitoring: Any failures are logged, alerts are triggered, and retry mechanisms are initiated. The entire flow is monitored via centralized dashboards.

Status Update/Confirmation: Confirmation or status updates from the target system are captured and can be synchronized back to the source system or other relevant applications.

Data Touchpoints

Dynamics AX: Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Customers, Vendors, Products (Items), Inventory Journals, General Ledger Journals, Invoices (Sales/Free Text), Payments, Employees.
Oracle EBS: Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Customers, Suppliers (Vendors), Items (Products), Invoices (AR/AP), Payments (AR/AP), General Ledger Journals, Employees.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Dynamics AX and Oracle EBS

Bridging the complex data models of Dynamics AX and Oracle EBS requires sophisticated mapping and transformation. Our iPaaS provides visual tools and AI assistance to ensure accurate and consistent data flow for critical business entities.

Sales Order

Represents a customer's request for products or services. Crucial for order-to-cash processes, inventory allocation, and fulfillment across both ERPs.

Dynamics AX Fields

SalesId CustAccount ItemId QtyOrdered SalesPrice SalesStatus DeliveryDate InventDimId

Oracle EBS Fields

Header ID Order Number Order Type Customer ID Line Items (Item Number, Quantity, Price) Ship-to Address Bill-to Address Ordered Date Status

Mapping Notes

Requires mapping AX's `SalesId` to EBS's `Order Number`, `CustAccount` to `Customer ID` (Party ID/Account ID), and detailed line item mapping. `InventDimId` from AX needs to be reconciled with EBS's inventory organization and subinventory structure. Status synchronization (`SalesStatus` to `Status`) is critical.

  • Data Aggregation/Splitting: Combining multiple AX records into a single EBS record or vice-versa (e.g., aggregating AX Inventory Journal lines into a single EBS GL Journal entry).
  • Format Standardization: Ensuring consistent date, address, and currency formats.
  • Derivation Rules: Calculating new field values based on existing data (e.g., deriving a consolidated GL account from multiple AX dimensions).

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Data Validation Failure: e.g., an invalid `CustAccount` from AX attempting to create an EBS Sales Order.
  • Business Logic Conflict: e.g., an AX Sales Order with a negative quantity attempting to update EBS inventory.
  • API/Network Failure: e.g., temporary unavailability of an AX AIF service or EBS REST endpoint.
  • Authentication Failure: Incorrect credentials for connecting to either ERP.
  • Duplicate Record: Attempting to create a record in EBS that already exists and is not configured for updates.
  • Schema Mismatch: Unexpected fields or data types from the source system not handled by the mapping.
