Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General Integration FAQs

▸ How does iPaaS enhance Authorize.Net's core functionality for Epicor Eclipse users?
iPaaS platforms transform Authorize.Net from a standalone payment gateway into a fully integrated financial hub for Epicor Eclipse. They provide connectors, enable real-time data orchestration for orders, payments, and refunds, automate complex workflows like daily reconciliation to Epicor Eclipse's GL, and offer low-code tools for rapid integration development, vastly expanding Authorize.Net's utility within an ERP context.

▸ Is the Epicor Eclipse and Authorize.Net integration PCI DSS compliant with iPaaS?
Yes, when implemented correctly. Modern iPaaS platforms are designed with security in mind. By leveraging Authorize.Net's Customer Information Manager (CIM) for tokenization (ensuring raw card data never touches Epicor Eclipse or the iPaaS), and adhering to best practices for secure credential management, data encryption, and access control within the iPaaS, you can maintain full PCI DSS compliance.

Low-Code/No-Code FAQs

▸ Can I use low-code tools to build Epicor Eclipse-Authorize.Net workflows?
Absolutely. Modern iPaaS platforms offer robust low-code/no-code environments, allowing business analysts and citizen integrators to visually design, deploy, and manage complex Epicor Eclipse-Authorize.Net workflows. This includes tasks like order processing, recurring billing, refund management, and GL reconciliation, all without writing extensive code.

AI & Automation FAQs

▸ What is the role of AI in Epicor Eclipse-Authorize.Net integrations?
AI significantly augments these integrations by providing intelligent capabilities such as enhanced fraud detection (analyzing Authorize.Net AFDS alerts), intelligent anomaly detection in daily GL reconciliation, smart routing of payment exceptions, and even suggesting optimal data mappings for new Epicor Eclipse fields, leading to higher accuracy and efficiency.

Performance & Scalability FAQs

▸ How do I handle Authorize.Net API rate limits in my integration with Epicor Eclipse?
Manage rate limits by adopting an event-driven architecture (using Authorize.Net webhooks), implementing intelligent queuing for non-critical requests, batching data for daily reporting (e.g., settlement reports), and using retry mechanisms with exponential backoff. Your iPaaS provides tools for monitoring API usage and managing throughput to prevent hitting limits.

Financial Reconciliation FAQs

▸ How can I automate Authorize.Net payment reconciliation with Epicor Eclipse ERP?
An iPaaS automates this by scheduling daily jobs to retrieve Authorize.Net settlement batch reports. It then transforms this data to match Epicor Eclipse's General Ledger structure, automatically posting journal entries. AI can further enhance this by flagging discrepancies or anomalies for investigation, drastically reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.

Key Features FAQs

▸ What are Authorize.Net's Customer Information Manager (CIM) and Automated Recurring Billing (ARB) and how do they integrate with Epicor Eclipse?
CIM securely stores customer payment profiles (tokenized credit card/bank account data) for repeat transactions without re-entering details, linking to Epicor Eclipse customer records. ARB is a service for managing recurring subscription payments using these stored profiles, which the iPaaS uses to create invoices and apply payments in Epicor Eclipse. Both are critical for efficient eCommerce and subscription businesses and are seamlessly integrated via iPaaS.

Data Management FAQs

▸ How can I ensure data consistency across Epicor Eclipse and Authorize.Net?
Employ an iPaaS's robust data mapping and transformation capabilities. Define canonical data models, use AI-assisted mapping to handle complex schemas, and implement validation rules within the iPaaS to ensure that payment and customer data from Authorize.Net is harmonized and consistent with your Epicor Eclipse customer, sales order, and financial records.
