The Challenge

The Challenge of Disconnected ERP Systems: Dynamics NAV & Oracle EBS

Organizations often find themselves managing critical business functions across multiple powerful, yet disconnected, ERP systems like Dynamics NAV and Oracle EBS. This fragmentation leads to significant operational inefficiencies, data inconsistencies, and delayed business insights.

  • Manual Data Entry & Reconciliation: Re-keying customer orders, vendor invoices, or financial journals between NAV and EBS is time-consuming, error-prone, and a major drain on resources.
  • Inconsistent Master Data: Discrepancies in customer, vendor, or item records across systems lead to operational errors, inaccurate reporting, and poor decision-making.
  • Delayed Financial Close: Manual aggregation of financial data from NAV to EBS General Ledger prolongs the close process, impacting reporting deadlines and compliance.
  • Lack of Real-time Visibility: Without unified data, it's impossible to get a real-time, accurate view of inventory, order status, or financial positions across the enterprise.
  • Complex Legacy API Management: Navigating Dynamics NAV's Web Services and Oracle EBS's diverse API landscape (PL/SQL, XML Gateway, REST) requires specialized skills and custom code.

Dynamics NAV & Oracle EBS Integration: Technical Overview

Our iPaaS provides a robust and flexible framework to connect Dynamics NAV and Oracle EBS, handling the complexities of their diverse API landscapes and data models. The integration architecture focuses on event-driven processing, intelligent data transformation, and comprehensive error management.

Data Flow Steps

Connectivity & Authentication: Securely connect to Dynamics NAV via its OData/SOAP Web Services using Web Service Access Keys. Connect to Oracle EBS leveraging its various interfaces: PL/SQL APIs, XML Gateway, REST services (if exposed), and Open Interfaces for bulk operations. Dedicated integration users with least privilege are configured in both systems.

Event Capture & Triggers: Implement event-driven triggers where possible (e.g., polling NAV OData feeds for changes, database change data capture for EBS, or custom EBS business events) to initiate workflows. Scheduled syncs are used for less time-sensitive data or bulk transfers.

Data Extraction & Ingestion: Extract relevant data from the source system. For NAV, this involves querying OData endpoints for entities like Customers, Sales Orders, Items. For EBS, this could involve querying custom views, calling PL/SQL APIs, or extracting from interface tables.

Intelligent Mapping & Transformation: Data from the source system is ingested into the iPaaS, where AI-assisted visual mapping tools are used to transform it into a canonical format, then to the target system's schema. This includes handling data type conversions, value lookups, and complex business logic.

Validation & Enrichment: Before sending data to the target system, it undergoes rigorous validation (e.g., mandatory fields, data format, business rules) and enrichment (e.g., deriving GL accounts, tax codes). AI detects anomalies and suggests corrections.

Target System API Interaction: The transformed and validated data is then pushed to the target system using its appropriate API. For NAV, this means POST/PATCH to OData/SOAP endpoints. For EBS, this might involve calling specific PL/SQL APIs (e.g., OEORDERPUB), inserting into Open Interface tables (e.g., GLINTERFACE, APINVOICES_INTERFACE) followed by concurrent program submission, or invoking REST services.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Each step is monitored. Transient errors trigger automatic retries with exponential back-off. Persistent errors are logged in detail, routed to dead-letter queues, and trigger alerts for manual intervention. Full audit trails are maintained.

Status Updates & Reconciliation: Confirmation or status updates from the target system are captured and, if necessary, reflected back in the source system (e.g., EBS invoice status updating NAV sales invoice, or EBS PO status updating NAV PO).

Data Touchpoints

Dynamics NAV: Customer (OData /Customers), Vendor (OData /Vendors), Item (OData /Items), Sales Order (OData /SalesOrders), Purchase Order (OData /PurchaseOrders), Sales Invoice (OData /SalesInvoices), Payment (OData /GenJournalLines for Cash Receipt), General Ledger Entry (OData /GenJournalLines).
Oracle EBS: Customer (HZCUSTACCOUNTV2PUB REST/PL/SQL), Supplier (APSUPPLIERS, POVENDORS tables/APIs), Item (INVITEMGRP REST/PL/SQL), Sales Order (OEORDERPUB PL/SQL API/REST), Purchase Order (POAPISS.CREATEPO PL/SQL API/REST), AR Invoice (ARINVOICEAPIPUB PL/SQL API/RACUSTOMERTRXALL), AR Payment (ARRECEIPTAPIPUB PL/SQL API/ARCASHRECEIPTSALL), AP Invoice (APINVOICESINTERFACE table/Invoice Import concurrent program), General Ledger Journal (GL_INTERFACE table/Journal Import concurrent program).

"Dynamics NAV (Source System) <-> iPaaS (Integration Platform) <-> Oracle EBS (Target System). Data flows bidirectionally for master data (Customer, Vendor, Item). Unidirectional flows for transactional data like Sales Orders (NAV to EBS), Purchase Orders (NAV to EBS), Sales Invoices (NAV to EBS AR), AP Invoices (NAV to EBS AP), Payments (NAV to EBS AR), and GL Journals (NAV to EBS GL)."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Data Mapping for Dynamics NAV and Oracle EBS Integration

Achieving seamless data flow between Dynamics NAV and Oracle EBS requires meticulous mapping of core business entities. Our iPaaS provides visual tools and AI assistance to handle the differences in schema, data types, and business logic between these two powerful ERPs.

Customer

Synchronizes customer master data, including contact information, addresses, and payment terms, ensuring a unified customer view across sales, finance, and service.

Dynamics NAV Fields

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

Oracle EBS Fields

Party ID Customer Account ID Customer Name Account Number Address (Bill-to, Ship-to) Contact Information Payment Terms

Mapping Notes

Dynamics NAV's 'No.' maps to EBS's 'Account Number'. NAV's address fields require concatenation and parsing for EBS's structured address model (HZLOCATIONS). Customer Posting Group in NAV needs to be mapped to appropriate customer classifications or GL account derivation rules in EBS. AI assists in fuzzy matching for deduplication against HZPARTIES.
