Unlock Seamless Retail Operations: Epicor Eagle & Vantiv Integration

Automate payments, accelerate financial reconciliation, and enhance security with real-time, AI-powered integration between your Epicor Eagle ERP and Vantiv payment processing.

The Challenge

The Pitfalls of Disconnected Payment & ERP Systems

Managing payments and financial records across disparate systems like Epicor Eagle and Vantiv often leads to significant operational inefficiencies, compliance risks, and delayed insights. Manual processes are costly, error-prone, and hinder business growth.

  • Manual entry of payment data into Epicor Eagle leads to errors, delays, and increased labor costs.
  • Delayed reconciliation of Vantiv settlements with Epicor Eagle's General Ledger impacts financial accuracy and reporting.
  • Higher PCI DSS compliance scope due to storing or handling sensitive cardholder data internally.
  • Fragmented customer payment histories across systems, complicating customer service and loyalty programs.
  • Slower order fulfillment due to manual payment status verification.
  • Inefficient refund processing and inventory adjustments.
  • Limited visibility into real-time payment performance and potential fraud.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about integration implementation, security, and best practices.

General FAQs

Why integrate Epicor Eagle with Vantiv?
Integrating Epicor Eagle with Vantiv automates critical payment processing, financial reconciliation, and customer data synchronization. This eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors, speeds up financial closing, and significantly enhances PCI DSS compliance by leveraging Vantiv's tokenization services for all transactions.

Security FAQs

How does this integration handle PCI DSS compliance?
The integration prioritizes PCI DSS compliance by using Vantiv's tokenization services. Raw cardholder data is securely sent directly to Vantiv, which returns a non-sensitive token. Only this token is stored in Epicor Eagle or linked systems, drastically reducing your internal PCI scope and compliance burden.

Financial FAQs

Can I automate financial reconciliation between Vantiv settlements and Epicor Eagle's General Ledger?
Absolutely. Our iPaaS solution automates the entire reconciliation process. It retrieves daily settlement reports from Vantiv, processes the aggregated transaction data and fees, applies predefined mapping rules, and automatically posts journal entries directly into Epicor Eagle's General Ledger, saving significant time and reducing manual errors.

Data Flow FAQs

What kind of data is synchronized between Epicor Eagle and Vantiv?
Key data synchronized includes Epicor Eagle Orders (to Vantiv Transactions), Customer profiles (with Vantiv PaymentMethod tokens), Epicor Eagle Payments (from Vantiv Transactions), and Vantiv Settlement Batches (to Epicor Eagle General Ledger entries). Inventory and return data are also updated in Epicor Eagle based on payment/refund status.

AI Features FAQs

How does AI enhance the Epicor Eagle and Vantiv integration?
AI significantly augments the integration by providing intelligent data mapping suggestions, real-time anomaly detection for fraud or reconciliation discrepancies, automated error resolution recommendations, and predictive insights for payment trends. This moves your operations from reactive to proactive, improving efficiency and security.

Customization FAQs

Is it possible to customize the integration workflows without coding?
Yes, our low-code/no-code iPaaS empowers business users and citizen integrators to visually design, modify, and deploy complex integration workflows between Epicor Eagle and Vantiv using intuitive drag-and-drop tools. This accelerates development, reduces reliance on IT, and ensures business agility.

Error Handling FAQs

What happens if a payment fails in Vantiv during an Epicor Eagle order process?
Our integration includes robust error handling. If a payment fails in Vantiv, the iPaaS captures the failure event, updates the Epicor Eagle order status (e.g., 'Payment Failed'), and can trigger automated actions like sending a notification to the customer or initiating a retry mechanism based on predefined business rules.
