Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST/GET/PUT /api/v1/customers Create, retrieve, or update customer master data in Epicor Eclipse ERP.
POST/GET/PUT /api/v1/salesorders Create, retrieve, or update sales orders, crucial for order-to-cash process.
GET/PUT /api/v1/inventory/items Retrieve or update product inventory levels and master data.
POST /api/v1/financials/journalentries Post general ledger journal entries for sales, payments, and payroll.
POST/GET/PUT /api/v1/employees Manage employee master data for payroll integration.

Transformation Logic

  • **Currency Conversion**: Ensure consistent currency codes and apply conversion rates if transactions span multiple currencies.
  • **Date/Time Formatting**: Standardize `timestamp` and `date` fields to a common format (e.g., ISO 8601).
  • **Customer ID Reconciliation**: Map and synchronize unique customer identifiers between Epicor Eclipse, Heartland, and potentially a CRM, creating cross-reference tables.
  • **Product SKU Matching**: Reconcile product SKUs and inventory quantities, handling variations in product identifiers.
  • **Payment Status Mapping**: Convert Heartland's `transactionType` and `status` to Epicor Eclipse's specific payment event codes for GL posting.
  • **Address Normalization**: Parse and standardize address components to ensure consistency for shipping and billing.
  • **Payroll Deduction Mapping**: Translate specific deduction types and benefit codes from HRIS/Epicor Eclipse to Heartland Payroll's schema.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Heartland API downtime leading to payment processing delays.
  • Epicor Eclipse ERP being offline, preventing GL posting.
  • Data validation failures due to incorrect formats or missing required fields.
  • Duplicate transaction attempts due to network issues.
  • Mismatched customer IDs causing unlinked transactions.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General Integration FAQs

What kind of systems can Heartland integrate with?
Heartland can integrate with a wide range of business systems including eCommerce platforms (Shopify, BigCommerce), CRM systems (Salesforce, HubSpot), ERPs (like Epicor Eclipse, NetSuite, SAP Business One), accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero), HRIS platforms, inventory management systems, and custom applications, primarily through its robust APIs and event-driven architecture facilitated by an iPaaS.

iPaaS Benefits FAQs

How does iPaaS improve Heartland's payment processing integration with Epicor Eclipse?
iPaaS enhances Heartland's payment processing integration with Epicor Eclipse by providing real-time data synchronization, automated transaction routing, centralized error handling, and robust data mapping capabilities. This ensures secure, compliant, and accurate flow of payment data to Epicor Eclipse's accounting and ERP modules, reducing manual reconciliation and improving financial reporting speed and accuracy.

Inventory Management FAQs

Can I automate my Heartland POS inventory updates with Epicor Eclipse?
Yes, absolutely. Using an iPaaS, you can create real-time or near real-time automation workflows to synchronize inventory levels between your Heartland POS system and your Epicor Eclipse ERP. This prevents overselling, reduces stockouts, ensures accurate inventory valuation in Epicor Eclipse, and provides customers with accurate product availability across all channels.

AI & Automation FAQs

What is AI-augmented integration for Heartland and Epicor Eclipse?
AI-augmented integration for Heartland and Epicor Eclipse involves embedding artificial intelligence capabilities into your iPaaS workflows. This can include AI for automated transaction validation, anomaly detection for potential fraud in Heartland data, intelligent data mapping suggestions between systems, and autonomous handling of common exceptions, significantly reducing manual oversight and improving data quality across your ERP and payment systems.

Security & Compliance FAQs

Are Heartland and Epicor Eclipse integrations PCI DSS compliant?
Maintaining PCI DSS compliance is paramount for any system handling payment data. While Heartland itself is compliant, your integration strategy must also adhere to these standards. Using an iPaaS that supports tokenization, secure data encryption (TLS 1.2+), and audited access controls is crucial to ensure end-to-end compliance for all integrated workflows involving Heartland and Epicor Eclipse, protecting sensitive cardholder data.

Low-Code/No-Code FAQs

How do low-code/no-code tools help with Heartland and Epicor Eclipse integrations?
Low-code/no-code tools empower business users and citizen integrators to build, modify, and manage Heartland and Epicor Eclipse integration workflows visually, without extensive coding. This accelerates development cycles, reduces reliance on IT, and allows business teams to quickly adapt integrations to evolving needs, such as adding new sales channels, payment methods, or updating Epicor Eclipse accounting rules.

Error Handling FAQs

How do I handle errors and failed transactions in Heartland and Epicor Eclipse integrations?
A robust integration strategy utilizes iPaaS capabilities for comprehensive error handling. This includes automated retries with exponential backoff for transient errors, dead-letter queues for messages that cannot be processed, configurable alerts for critical failures (e.g., failed GL postings in Epicor Eclipse), and centralized logging for auditing and troubleshooting. AI can further assist by suggesting resolutions for recurring error patterns.

Architecture FAQs

What is event-driven architecture in the context of Heartland and Epicor Eclipse integration?
Event-driven architecture (EDA) means that integrations react to 'events' happening in Heartland (e.g., a payment is authorized, a settlement is posted) or Epicor Eclipse (e.g., a new sales order is created). This allows for real-time data flow, immediate system updates, and highly responsive workflows, which is crucial for dynamic environments like eCommerce, payment processing, and financial operations, ensuring Epicor Eclipse always has the latest financial data.
