Seamless Epicor Eclipse & Amazon Fulfillment Integration

Automate Orders, Inventory, Shipments & Financials for Unrivaled eCommerce Efficiency

The Challenge

The Disconnect: Manual Hassles in Your Epicor Eclipse & Amazon Operations

Managing Amazon Fulfillment while relying on Epicor Eclipse can create significant operational bottlenecks. Manual data entry, disparate systems, and delayed information flow lead to costly errors, frustrated customers, and a drain on resources.

  • Inventory Inaccuracies: Manual updates between Epicor Eclipse and Amazon FBA lead to overselling or stockouts, causing lost sales and customer dissatisfaction.
  • Inefficient Order Processing: Manually entering Amazon orders into Epicor Eclipse is time-consuming, error-prone, and slows down fulfillment.
  • Complex Financial Reconciliation: Deciphering Amazon's detailed settlement reports and manually posting to Epicor Eclipse's General Ledger is a labor-intensive, error-prone accounting nightmare.
  • Lack of Real-time Visibility: Delayed updates on shipments, returns, and inventory status hinder proactive decision-making and customer service.
  • High Operational Costs: The reliance on manual processes drives up labor costs and diverts skilled staff from higher-value activities.

Integration Architecture: Connecting Epicor Eclipse & Amazon Fulfillment

Our integration solution leverages a modern iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) as the central orchestrator, providing robust, scalable, and secure connectivity between Epicor Eclipse and Amazon Fulfillment. This architecture ensures high performance, data integrity, and flexibility for evolving business needs.

Data Flow Steps

Secure Connectivity: Establish secure, authenticated connections to Epicor Eclipse's API and Amazon SP-API using OAuth 2.0 and API keys.

Event & Data Capture: Configure event-driven triggers (Amazon SP-API Notifications/webhooks) and scheduled polling for data retrieval (Epicor Eclipse API, Amazon Reports).

Data Transformation: Utilize the iPaaS's visual mapping engine to transform data between Epicor Eclipse's and Amazon's distinct schemas.

Business Logic & Validation: Apply custom business rules, conditional logic, and AI-driven validation to ensure data quality and workflow accuracy.

Orchestration & Routing: Design multi-step workflows to route data, trigger downstream actions, and manage complex processes (e.g., order fulfillment, financial reconciliation).

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement automated retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and real-time alerts for proactive issue resolution and continuous oversight.

Deployment & Governance: Deploy integrations through a structured Dev → QA → Prod pipeline, ensuring version control and auditability.

Data Touchpoints

Epicor Eclipse: Sales Orders, Inventory Items, Product Master, Customer Records, General Ledger Journal Entries, Return Material Authorizations (RMAs).
Amazon Fulfillment: Orders, Order Items, Inventory Items (FBA), Shipments, Returns, Settlement Reports, FBA Inbound Shipments, Product Listings (via Feeds).

"The integration flow typically starts with an event or scheduled trigger. Data is extracted from the source system (e.g., Amazon Order, Epicor Eclipse Inventory change), passed through the iPaaS for transformation, validation, and application of business rules, then routed to the target system (e.g., Epicor Eclipse Sales Order, Amazon FBA Inventory Feed). Status updates and acknowledgments flow back, often triggering subsequent steps in the workflow. AI components are embedded throughout for intelligent automation and anomaly detection."

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Technical FAQs

What is the Amazon Selling Partner API (SP-API) and why is it important for integration?
The Amazon Selling Partner API (SP-API) is a suite of REST-based APIs that allows programmatic access to Amazon Seller Central data and functionality. It's crucial for integration because it provides the official, scalable, and secure way to automate tasks like order processing, inventory management, shipment tracking, product listings, and financial reporting, enabling seamless data exchange between Amazon Fulfillment and your enterprise systems like Epicor Eclipse.
How do I handle Amazon SP-API rate limits in my Epicor Eclipse integrations?
Effectively managing rate limits requires an iPaaS with built-in capabilities for intelligent throttling, exponential backoff for retries, and queuing mechanisms. Batching requests for non-real-time operations and distributing load across multiple API calls can also help. Monitoring API usage is key to proactively adjusting strategies and ensuring your Epicor Eclipse data flows are uninterrupted.

Business Value FAQs

How can iPaaS enhance my Amazon Fulfillment operations with Epicor Eclipse?
iPaaS platforms streamline Amazon Fulfillment operations by providing pre-built connectors, visual mapping tools, and orchestration layers to automate complex workflows between Amazon and Epicor Eclipse. They enable real-time data synchronization, robust error handling, scalable processing, and the ability to integrate Amazon with Epicor Eclipse and other systems without custom code, significantly reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.

Challenges FAQs

What are the common challenges when integrating Epicor Eclipse with Amazon Fulfillment?
Common challenges include managing Amazon's evolving API versions and rate limits, complex data transformations for settlement reports, ensuring real-time inventory accuracy across multiple channels, handling returns and refunds efficiently, and maintaining data consistency between Amazon and Epicor Eclipse. iPaaS helps address these by abstracting API complexities and providing robust data governance.

Workflow FAQs

What's the best way to synchronize inventory between Epicor Eclipse and Amazon FBA?
The best way is to implement an event-driven, near real-time synchronization via an iPaaS. When inventory changes in Epicor Eclipse (e.g., due to sales, receipts, adjustments), an event should trigger the iPaaS to update Amazon FBA via the SP-API Feeds. This prevents overselling and ensures accurate stock levels across all channels.
Can I automate Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) orders from Epicor Eclipse?
Yes, you can fully automate Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) orders. An iPaaS can capture orders from your non-Amazon sales channels (e.g., your website, eBay), process them through Epicor Eclipse, transform them into Amazon's MCF order format, and submit them via the SP-API Fulfillment Outbound API. The iPaaS then tracks the fulfillment status and updates your originating sales channel and Epicor Eclipse.

Security FAQs

What are the security implications of integrating Epicor Eclipse with Amazon SP-API?
Security implications include protecting sensitive customer and financial data, securing API credentials (refresh tokens, client secrets), ensuring data encryption in transit and at rest, and adhering to Amazon's Data Protection Policy. A robust iPaaS provides features like credential vaulting, end-to-end encryption, and audit logging to mitigate these risks, ensuring your Epicor Eclipse data remains secure.

AI FAQs

How does AI fit into Epicor Eclipse and Amazon Fulfillment integration?
AI augments integration by providing intelligent capabilities such as automated data validation, anomaly detection in financial reports or inventory levels, predictive insights for demand forecasting, smart routing of exceptions, and even AI-assisted data mapping recommendations. This transforms reactive processes into proactive, self-optimizing workflows between Epicor Eclipse and Amazon.
