Technical Integration Details: Dynamics NAV & Epicor E9

Our iPaaS provides a robust and flexible framework for integrating Dynamics NAV and Epicor E9, leveraging their respective API capabilities to ensure secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange. This section outlines the technical underpinnings of the integration.

Data Flow Steps

Connection Setup: Securely configure connectors for Dynamics NAV (OData/SOAP Web Services) and Epicor E9 (Service Connect/REST APIs) within the iPaaS, including authentication credentials.

Event Listener/Polling Configuration: Set up event triggers (e.g., webhooks from E9 Service Connect, polling NAV OData feeds for changes) or scheduled jobs to initiate workflows.

Data Extraction: Extract relevant data (e.g., new Sales Orders, updated Customer records) from the source ERP using optimized API calls.

Data Transformation & Mapping: Apply business logic, AI-assisted mapping, and cleansing rules to transform data into a canonical format, reconciling schema differences between NAV and E9.

Data Validation: Implement pre-posting validation rules to ensure data integrity before writing to the target ERP.

Data Loading: Push transformed and validated data to the target ERP via its APIs (e.g., creating a Sales Order in E9, updating Inventory in NAV).

Error Handling & Notification: Log all transactions, implement retry mechanisms for transient errors, and trigger alerts for critical failures.

Status Updates: Update the source system or intermediate records with the status of the integration (e.g., 'Order Processed in Epicor E9').

Data Touchpoints

Dynamics NAV: Customers, Vendors, Items, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Sales Invoices, Payments (Cash Receipt Journal), General Ledger Entries, Shipments.
Epicor E9: Customer, Vendor, Part / Product, Inventory, Sales Order, Purchase Order, Invoice (AR/AP), Payment, General Ledger (GL) Entry, Shipment.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Dynamics NAV and Epicor E9

Seamless data flow relies on robust mapping of shared entities between Dynamics NAV and Epicor E9. Our iPaaS provides visual tools and AI assistance to manage these complex transformations.

Customer

Represents a buying entity. Critical for sales, invoicing, and service across both ERPs.

Dynamics NAV Fields

No. Name Address City Post Code Country/Region Code Phone No. E-Mail Currency Code Customer Posting Group

Epicor E9 Fields

CustNum (PK) Name Address1 City State Zip Country PhoneNum EmailAddress TermsCode CreditLimit SalesRepCode

Mapping Notes

Map NAV 'No.' to a custom field in Epicor E9 (e.g., 'NAV_CustID') for cross-reference, and vice-versa. Standardize address formats, country codes. 'Customer Posting Group' in NAV maps to financial segments in E9.

eCommerce Order-to-Fulfillment Automation

Automate the flow of sales orders from an eCommerce platform into Dynamics NAV for initial processing, then to Epicor E9 for fulfillment, and finally back to NAV for invoicing and payment reconciliation. Real-time inventory updates are critical.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 New Sales Order created in eCommerce (e.g., Shopify, Magento).
  2. 1 iPaaS captures order, creates/updates Customer in NAV & Epicor E9.
  3. 2 Sales Order created in Dynamics NAV, inventory reserved, order status updated.
  4. 3 Order details synchronized to Epicor E9 for warehouse fulfillment and shipment creation.
  5. 4 Shipment confirmation (including tracking) from Epicor E9/WMS updates NAV and eCommerce.
  6. 5 Sales Invoice generated in Epicor E9 (or NAV) and synchronized for AR posting.
  7. 6 Payment received via gateway, reconciled against invoices in both ERPs.

Transformation Logic

  • Field Concatenation/Splitting: Combining 'First Name' and 'Last Name' into 'Full Name', or splitting 'Address' into 'Address1', 'Address2'.
  • Date Format Conversion: Ensuring consistent date/time formats (e.g., 'YYYY-MM-DD' vs. 'MM/DD/YYYY').
  • Lookup Tables: Mapping internal IDs or codes (e.g., 'Customer Posting Group') to external system equivalents (e.g., 'TermsCode').
  • Conditional Logic: Applying different mapping rules based on data values (e.g., if 'Order Type' is 'Web', apply specific pricing).
  • Currency Conversion: Handling multi-currency transactions and exchange rates.
  • Data Masking/Redaction: Protecting sensitive PII or payment data during transit and logging.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • API Rate Limit Exceeded: iPaaS implements back-off and retry.
  • Data Validation Failure: Record moved to dead-letter queue, alert sent.
  • Authentication Failure: Immediate alert, workflow suspended.
  • System Downtime: iPaaS queues messages and retries when system is back online.
  • Duplicate Record Creation: Prevented by idempotent design and unique ID checks.
