The Challenge

The Disconnect Between Your ERP and eCommerce Store

In today's fast-paced retail landscape, a fragmented technology stack between your core ERP (Epicor Eagle) and your online sales channel (Clarity eCommerce) creates significant inefficiencies and compromises customer experience. Manual data entry, delayed updates, and siloed information lead to costly errors and lost opportunities.

  • Manual Order Processing: Every online order from Clarity eCommerce requires manual entry into Epicor Eagle, consuming valuable time and introducing human error.
  • Inventory Discrepancies: Out-of-sync inventory between Epicor Eagle and Clarity eCommerce leads to overselling, backorders, and disappointed customers.
  • Inconsistent Product Data: Product descriptions, pricing, and availability differ across platforms, confusing customers and damaging brand trust.
  • Fragmented Customer View: Customer data resides in separate systems, preventing a holistic understanding of purchase history, preferences, and loyalty.
  • Delayed Financial Reconciliation: Manual matching of payment transactions from Clarity eCommerce with invoices in Epicor Eagle slows down accounting processes and financial reporting.
  • Inefficient Returns: Handling returns from eCommerce orders requires complex manual adjustments in Epicor Eagle for inventory and refunds.

The Technical Backbone: Connecting Epicor Eagle and Clarity eCommerce

Our iPaaS provides the architectural framework for a robust, scalable, and secure integration between Epicor Eagle and Clarity eCommerce. It leverages the strengths of both platforms' APIs and eventing models to create intelligent, automated workflows.

Data Flow Steps

API/Webhook Configuration: Establish secure API keys or OAuth 2.0 credentials for Epicor Eagle and Clarity eCommerce. Configure Clarity eCommerce webhooks for real-time event notifications (e.g., `order.created`, `product.updated`).

Connector Deployment: Utilize pre-built, optimized connectors for Epicor Eagle and Clarity eCommerce within the iPaaS, abstracting API complexities.

Data Model Harmonization: Define a canonical data model for key entities (Order, Customer, Product, Inventory) using the iPaaS's visual mapping canvas.

Workflow Orchestration: Design event-driven workflows that trigger based on changes in either system. E.g., a new order in Clarity eCommerce initiates a flow to Epicor Eagle.

Transformation & Validation: Implement low-code transformation rules to convert data formats and validate data integrity before syncing to the target system.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Configure automated retries, dead-letter queues, and real-time alerts for any integration failures, ensuring data consistency and operational uptime.

Deployment & Governance: Promote tested workflows from sandbox to production, with version control and comprehensive monitoring dashboards.

Data Touchpoints

Orders: Clarity eCommerce `Order` ↔ Epicor Eagle `Order (Sales Order)`
Customers: Clarity eCommerce `Customer` ↔ Epicor Eagle `Customer`
Products: Epicor Eagle `Product` ↔ Clarity eCommerce `Product`
Inventory: Epicor Eagle `Inventory Item` ↔ Clarity eCommerce `Inventory`
Payments: Clarity eCommerce `Payment Transaction` ↔ Epicor Eagle `Payment`, `Invoice`
Shipments: Epicor Eagle `Shipment` ↔ Clarity eCommerce `Shipment`
Returns: Clarity eCommerce `Return` ↔ Epicor Eagle `Return`

"A typical data flow begins with a customer placing an order on Clarity eCommerce. This triggers a `order.created` webhook event to the iPaaS. The iPaaS then retrieves the full order details from Clarity eCommerce, transforms the data to match Epicor Eagle's schema, and creates a new sales order in Epicor Eagle via its `/api/v1/orders` endpoint. Epicor Eagle processes the order, updates its inventory, and generates an invoice. The iPaaS monitors Epicor Eagle for inventory changes (e.g., via `/api/v1/inventory` endpoint or database triggers) and pushes these updates back to Clarity eCommerce in real-time. Similarly, shipment tracking information from Epicor Eagle is synchronized back to Clarity eCommerce to update order status."
