Unify Epicor E10 ERP with 3dcart eCommerce for End-to-End Automation
Achieve real-time order processing, inventory synchronization, and customer data harmony, powered by intelligent iPaaS and AI.
The Disconnect: When eCommerce & ERP Operate in Silos
Without a robust integration, managing your 3dcart eCommerce operations and Epicor E10 ERP becomes a costly, error-prone challenge. Manual data transfer creates bottlenecks, delays, and critical inaccuracies that impact your bottom line and customer experience.
-
Manual order entry from 3dcart into Epicor E10 is slow and prone to human error.
-
Outdated inventory levels in 3dcart lead to overselling, backorders, and customer dissatisfaction.
-
Fragmented customer data across systems hinders personalized marketing and support.
-
Delayed financial reconciliation due to manual syncing of 3dcart payments and invoices.
-
Inconsistent product information between ERP and eCommerce impacts sales and brand perception.

Deep Dive: Epicor E10 and 3dcart Technical Integration
Our integration solution orchestrates seamless data exchange between Epicor E10, your powerful ERP, and 3dcart (Shift4Shop), your dynamic eCommerce platform, using a modern API-first and event-driven approach. The iPaaS acts as the intelligent middleware, handling connectivity, data transformation, and workflow automation.
Data Flow Steps
**Connect & Authenticate:** Establish secure, authenticated connections to Epicor E10's REST APIs and 3dcart's API/Webhooks.
**Define Data Flows:** Visually design workflows (e.g., Order Sync, Inventory Update) using the iPaaS's low-code interface.
**Map & Transform Data:** Create precise mappings between Epicor E10's complex data model (e.g., 'SalesOrderSvc' fields) and 3dcart's entities (e.g., 'Order' properties). Apply transformation rules for data harmonization.
**Configure Triggers & Actions:** Set up 3dcart webhooks for real-time events (new order) and Epicor E10 BAQ events or polling for changes. Define API calls to create/update records in the target system.
**Implement Error Handling & Retries:** Design robust error management with logging, automated retries (exponential backoff), and alerts for critical failures.
**Test & Deploy:** Thoroughly test integration flows in sandbox environments, leverage version control, and promote changes through dev-QA-prod pipelines.
**Monitor & Optimize:** Continuously monitor integration performance, data quality, and API usage via iPaaS dashboards.
Data Touchpoints
"The integration architecture centers around a centralized iPaaS. 3dcart initiates events (e.g., new order via webhook) which are captured by the iPaaS. The iPaaS then orchestrates data retrieval from 3dcart, performs necessary transformations, and pushes the data to Epicor E10 via its REST APIs (e.g., creating a Sales Order). Conversely, changes in Epicor E10 (e.g., inventory updates, shipment confirmations) can trigger events (via BAQs or direct API calls) which the iPaaS captures, transforms, and pushes back to 3dcart via its APIs (e.g., updating product stock, order status)."

Order-to-Cash Automation: 3dcart Sales to Epicor E10 ERP
Automate the entire sales order lifecycle, from a customer placing an order on your 3dcart store to its complete processing, fulfillment, and financial posting in Epicor E10.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Customer places an order on 3dcart.
- 1 3dcart webhook triggers iPaaS workflow upon new order creation.
- 2 iPaaS retrieves order details (Order, Customer, Product line items) from 3dcart.
- 3 Data is mapped and transformed to Epicor E10 'Sales Order' schema, validating against E10 'Customer' and 'Part' masters.
- 4 New 'Sales Order' is created in Epicor E10 via API.
- 5 E10 triggers inventory allocation and fulfillment processes.
- 6 Upon shipment in E10, tracking info is pushed back to 3dcart (via iPaaS).
- 7 Invoice generated in E10 and synchronized with accounting records.
Business Outcome
Reduced order processing time from hours to minutes, elimination of manual data entry errors, accelerated revenue recognition, and improved customer satisfaction with timely order updates.
Real-time (event-driven)
API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- **Field Concatenation:** Combining 3dcart 'first_name' and 'last_name' into Epicor E10 'Customer.Name'.
- **Lookup Tables:** Mapping 3dcart 'order_status' values to corresponding Epicor E10 'Sales Order' statuses.
- **Price Conversion:** Ensuring currency and decimal precision consistency between systems.
- **Address Standardization:** Using external services (or iPaaS functions) to standardize 3dcart addresses before E10 ingestion.
- **Conditional Logic:** Applying different tax codes in E10 based on 3dcart customer group or shipping destination.
🛡️ Error Handling
- **Invalid PartNum:** 3dcart order contains a product SKU not found in Epicor E10 'Part' master.
- **E10 API Rate Limit Exceeded:** High volume of 3dcart orders overwhelms E10 API.
- **Stale Inventory:** E10 inventory updated, but 3dcart update fails, leading to overselling.
- **Customer Duplicate:** New 3dcart customer matches an existing E10 customer, requiring de-duplication.
- **Network Connectivity Issue:** Temporary disruption between iPaaS and either E10 or 3dcart.
