Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for AX-Syspro Integration

Our iPaaS solution provides sophisticated mapping capabilities, often augmented by AI, to ensure accurate and consistent data exchange for critical business entities between Dynamics AX and Syspro.

Sales Order

Synchronizes customer order requests from Dynamics AX (potentially originating from eCommerce) to Syspro for fulfillment and financial processing.

Dynamics AX Fields

SalesId CustAccount ItemId QtyOrdered SalesPrice SalesStatus DeliveryDate InventDimId

Syspro Fields

SalesOrderNumber CustomerPoNumber CustomerCode OrderDate ShipToAddress Lines (ProductCode, Quantity, UnitPrice)

Mapping Notes

Map `SalesId` to `CustomerPoNumber` or a custom Syspro field. `CustAccount` from AX maps to `CustomerCode` in Syspro. `ItemId` requires mapping to `ProductCode` (Syspro StockCode). `InventDimId` from AX needs transformation to Syspro's warehouse/location logic. Line items require careful array mapping.
