The Challenge

The Disconnect Between Your Online Store and Backend Operations

Without a robust integration, operating 3dcart and Epicor E9 as separate silos leads to significant operational inefficiencies, data discrepancies, and ultimately, frustrated customers.

  • Manual order entry from 3dcart into Epicor E9 is time-consuming and prone to human error.
  • Outdated inventory levels on 3dcart leading to overselling or lost sales opportunities.
  • Lack of a unified customer view across sales (3dcart) and operations/finance (Epicor E9).
  • Delayed financial reconciliation due to manual processing of 3dcart transactions.
  • Inconsistent product information and pricing between your ERP and eCommerce storefront.
  • Slow fulfillment cycles and delayed shipping notifications impacting customer satisfaction.

Data Flow Steps

**Authentication & Connection:** Establish secure connections using API keys (3dcart) and Epicor E9's respective authentication methods (e.g., user credentials, tokens for SOAP/REST services).

**Define Workflows:** Visually design integration flows in the iPaaS, specifying triggers (webhooks, scheduled polls) and actions.

**Data Extraction:** Extract relevant data entities (e.g., Orders, Products, Customers) from 3dcart via API calls or from Epicor E9 via its business objects/services.

**Transformation & Mapping:** Utilize the iPaaS's visual mapper to transform and map data fields between the distinct schemas of 3dcart and Epicor E9. Apply business logic, data cleansing, and enrichment rules.

**Data Loading:** Push the transformed data into the target system via its respective APIs (e.g., create Sales Orders in Epicor E9, update Inventory in 3dcart).

**Error Handling & Monitoring:** Implement intelligent error handling with automatic retries and alerts. Monitor integration health and data flow through centralized dashboards.

Data Touchpoints

**3dcart:** Orders, Products, Customers, Inventory, Payments, Shipments, Categories, Returns, Coupons, Tax.
**Epicor E9:** Sales Orders, Part Master, Customer Master, Inventory Bin/Warehouse, General Ledger, Accounts Receivable, Shipments, Invoices.

"3dcart (New Order Webhook) -> iPaaS (Data Extract, Map, Transform) -> Epicor E9 (Create Sales Order, Update Inventory). Epicor E9 (Shipment Event) -> iPaaS (Extract Tracking) -> 3dcart (Update Order Status)."

Mapping Notes

3dcart's `order_id` often maps to Epicor E9's `PONum` on `OrderHed` for traceability. Line items require careful mapping of `SKU` to `PartNum` and quantity/price. Discounts and shipping charges need to be mapped to appropriate Epicor E9 miscellaneous charges or freight fields.
