Dynamics NAV & Walmart Marketplace: AI-Powered Integration for Mid-Market Growth
Automate your entire eCommerce operation, from real-time order processing to inventory sync, with our low-code iPaaS and AI-first approach.
The Manual Maze: Why Disconnected Systems Hold Back Your Walmart Growth
Mid-market businesses often struggle to scale their Walmart Marketplace operations due to the complexities of integrating their robust ERP, Dynamics NAV, with the fast-paced demands of eCommerce. Manual processes create a bottleneck, leading to costly errors and missed opportunities.
-
Manual Order Entry: Transcribing orders from Walmart into Dynamics NAV is slow, prone to human error, and delays fulfillment.
-
Out-of-Sync Inventory: Discrepancies between NAV's stock levels and Walmart Marketplace lead to oversells, backorders, and customer dissatisfaction.
-
Product Data Inconsistencies: Manually updating product listings, pricing, and descriptions across both systems is time-consuming and risks inaccurate information.
-
Delayed Fulfillment & Returns: Slow processing of shipment updates and returns impacts seller performance metrics and customer trust.
-
Lack of Real-time Insights: Without a unified data flow, gaining a holistic view of sales, inventory, and financial performance is challenging.

Dynamics NAV & Walmart Marketplace: Technical Integration Details
Our iPaaS provides a robust, secure, and performant integration layer between Dynamics NAV's Web Services (OData/SOAP) and Walmart Marketplace's RESTful APIs. This section details the technical aspects of establishing and maintaining this critical connection.
Data Flow Steps
Connection Setup: Configure secure connections to Dynamics NAV (using Web Service Access Keys) and Walmart Marketplace (using OAuth 2.0 Client ID/Secret). iPaaS securely stores credentials.
Schema Discovery: The iPaaS automatically introspects available entities and fields from both NAV's OData endpoints and Walmart's API documentation.
Workflow Design: Visually design integration flows using the low-code editor. AI co-pilot suggests triggers, actions, and data transformations.
Data Mapping & Transformation: Use the visual data mapper to define how fields from NAV entities (e.g., `Sales Order`) map to Walmart entities (e.g., `Order`). Apply transformation rules (e.g., date format conversion, currency mapping, conditional logic). AI assists with mapping suggestions.
Validation & Error Handling: Implement AI-assisted data validation rules to ensure data quality before entry into either system. Configure automated retries, dead-letter queues, and alerts for robust error handling.
Deployment & Monitoring: Deploy workflows to dedicated environments (Dev, QA, Prod). Monitor integration health, performance, and data flow through centralized dashboards. AI flags anomalies.

Integration Use Cases

Walmart Order-to-Cash Automation
Automate the complete lifecycle of a Walmart Marketplace order, from its placement to financial reconciliation in Dynamics NAV, ensuring efficiency and accuracy.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Order Ingestion (Walmart to iPaaS): New orders are pulled from Walmart's `/v3/orders` endpoint via API calls, triggered by event-driven notifications or frequent polling.
- 1 Data Validation & Transformation (iPaaS): AI-powered validation checks for data integrity. The iPaaS maps Walmart's `Order` entity (including `purchaseOrderId`, `customerOrderId`, `shippingInfo`, `orderLines`) to Dynamics NAV's `Sales Order` and `Customer` entities. AI suggests mappings for `sku` to `Item No.` and `shippingAddress` to `Ship-to Address`.
- 2 Customer Sync (iPaaS to NAV): If a customer is new, a `Customer` record is created in NAV (`/ODataV4/Company('CompanyName')/Customers`). For existing customers, the record is updated. Limited PII from Walmart is mapped for fulfillment purposes.
- 3 Sales Order Creation (iPaaS to NAV): A `Sales Order` is created in NAV (`/ODataV4/Company('CompanyName')/SalesOrders`), populating `Sell-to Customer No.`, `Order Date`, `Ship-to Name/Address`, and `Sales Lines` (mapping Walmart `orderLines` to NAV `Item`, `Quantity`, `Unit Price`).
- 4 Inventory Reservation & Update (NAV to Walmart): NAV automatically reserves inventory. A subsequent event or scheduled sync updates Walmart's `/v3/inventory` endpoint with the reduced stock quantity, preventing oversells.
- 5 Shipment & Tracking Update (NAV to Walmart): Once the order is shipped from NAV/WMS, the `Shipment` details (tracking number, carrier) are pushed to Walmart's `/v3/orders` endpoint (PUT request to update status) via iPaaS, providing customers with real-time tracking.
- 6 Sales Invoice & Payment Reconciliation (NAV): Upon fulfillment, a `Sales Invoice` is generated in NAV. Payment reconciliation can be automated by pushing payment gateway data (if applicable) to NAV's `Cash Receipt Journal`.
Business Outcome
Reduced order processing time by 70%, near-zero manual errors, improved order accuracy, enhanced customer satisfaction with timely updates, and accurate financial records.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- ID Harmonization: Map Walmart `sku` to NAV `Item No.`, and `purchaseOrderId` to NAV `Sales Order No.`. Generate unique IDs for NAV customers from Walmart orders if required.
- Address Standardization: Parse and reformat Walmart `shippingInfo` into NAV's structured address fields (Street, City, Post Code, Country). Leverage AI for address validation.
- Currency & Date Conversion: Convert date/time formats and currency codes to match system requirements (e.g., ISO 8601 to NAV date format).
- Conditional Logic: Apply rules such as 'create new customer if not found in NAV', 'update inventory only if quantity > 0'.
- Data Enrichment: Pull additional product attributes from NAV to enrich Walmart listings, or vice versa if needed.
- Error Remediation: AI-suggested transformations to correct common data entry errors or format issues.
🛡️ Error Handling
- API Rate Limit Exceeded (Walmart): iPaaS throttles requests and retries with exponential back-off.
- Invalid Item No. (NAV): Order lines with unknown SKUs are quarantined, and an alert is sent for manual correction.
- NAV Web Service Unavailable: iPaaS retries connection. If persistent, alerts IT. Dead-letter queue for pending transactions.
- Data Validation Failure: Malformed address or incorrect price format. AI suggests correction or moves to dead-letter for human review.
- Duplicate Order ID: Idempotency ensures the order is not re-created in NAV; instead, the existing order is updated if needed.
