Dynamics NAV & Acumatica Integration: Technical Deep Dive

Our iPaaS provides a robust, scalable, and secure framework for connecting Dynamics NAV and Acumatica, leveraging their respective API capabilities for optimal data flow and process automation.

Data Flow Steps

Connection Setup: Configure secure connections for Dynamics NAV (Web Service Access Key) and Acumatica (OAuth 2.0).

Trigger Definition: Define integration triggers – Acumatica Business Events (webhooks) for real-time updates and scheduled polling of Dynamics NAV Web Services for changes.

Data Extraction: Extract relevant data from the source system using optimized API queries (OData filters, select clauses).

Data Mapping & Transformation: Visually map source fields to target fields, applying AI-assisted transformation logic, data cleansing, and canonical model enforcement.

Business Logic & Validation: Implement conditional logic, lookups, and AI-powered validation rules to ensure data integrity before writing to the target ERP.

Error Handling & Retries: Configure robust error handling, exponential back-off retries for transient issues, and dead-letter queues for persistent failures.

Data Loading: Post transformed and validated data to the target ERP's API endpoints (e.g., Acumatica Sales Order API, NAV Customer OData).

Status Updates & Notifications: Update source systems with status changes (e.g., order fulfillment) and send alerts for critical integration events.

Data Touchpoints

Customer (NAV Customer, Acumatica Customer AR303000)
Vendor (NAV Vendor, Acumatica Vendor AP303000)
Item / Inventory Item (NAV Item, Acumatica Inventory Item IN202500)
Sales Order (NAV Sales Order, Acumatica Sales Order SO301000)
Purchase Order (NAV Purchase Order, Acumatica Purchase Order)
Sales Invoice (NAV Sales Invoice, Acumatica Invoice AR301000)

Resource (NAV Resource, Acumatica Project PM301000)

"The integration flows are orchestrated by the iPaaS, acting as middleware. Acumatica utilizes its native Business Events to push real-time updates (e.g., new Sales Order, Inventory change) to the iPaaS via webhooks. Dynamics NAV changes are captured either through scheduled polling of its OData/SOAP Web Services or, in advanced setups, via Change Data Capture (CDC) mechanisms. The iPaaS then performs data mapping, transformation, AI-assisted validation, and business logic application before pushing data to the respective target system's APIs. Bidirectional synchronization is supported for master data like Customers and Items, while transactional flows (e.g., eCommerce orders) typically initiate in one system and flow to the other."
