Unify Dynamics NAV & Oracle EBS: Real-time ERP Integration for Business Agility
Break down data silos and automate critical Order-to-Cash, Procure-to-Pay, and Master Data workflows with an AI-powered iPaaS solution.
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 (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)."

eCommerce Order-to-Cash Automation
Seamlessly flow sales orders from an eCommerce platform (e.g., Shopify, Adobe Commerce) into Dynamics NAV, then orchestrate fulfillment, invoicing, and payment reconciliation through to Oracle EBS. This ensures a unified view of customer orders and financials.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Customer places order on eCommerce platform.
- 1 iPaaS captures order via webhook and creates Sales Order in Dynamics NAV.
- 2 NAV updates inventory (Item Ledger Entry) and triggers shipment process.
- 3 Sales Order and Customer data from NAV is synchronized to Oracle EBS (OEORDERPUB, HZCUSTACCOUNT_V2PUB).
- 4 NAV Sales Invoice is created and transferred to Oracle EBS AR (RACUSTOMERTRX_ALL).
- 5 Payment gateway data is reconciled with NAV Cash Receipt Journal, then applied to EBS AR Receipts (ARRECEIPTAPI_PUB).
- 6 Order status updates flow back to eCommerce via NAV.
Business Outcome
Real-time order processing, accurate inventory, accelerated cash flow, and a consistent customer experience.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Data Type Conversion: Automatically convert data types (e.g., string to numeric, date formats).
- Value Mapping/Lookup: Map picklist values, status codes, or derive complex attributes (e.g., NAV 'Customer Posting Group' to EBS 'Customer Classification').
- Concatenation/Splitting: Combine or separate fields (e.g., NAV address lines into EBS structured address).
- Conditional Logic: Apply transformations based on specific conditions (e.g., different GL accounts for different item categories).
- Calculations: Perform arithmetic operations (e.g., tax calculations, currency conversions).
- Default Values: Assign default values for missing fields.
- AI-Generated Transformations: AI can suggest and generate complex transformation scripts based on observed data patterns and user intent.
🛡️ Error Handling
- API Rate Limits/Throttling: Handled by queuing and back-off retries.
- Invalid Data Format: Detected by AI validation, data quarantined for correction.
- Business Logic Violation: EBS/NAV API returns specific error, logged and alerted.
- Network Connectivity Issues: Transient, handled by retries.
- Duplicate Records: AI detects, applies conflict resolution or routes for review.
- System Downtime: Alerts triggered, workflows paused and retried upon system recovery.
