Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Map Vantiv's `merchantTransactionId` to Epicor Kinetic's `OrderNum` or `InvoiceNum` for unique identification.
  • Convert Vantiv payment `status` values (e.g., 'CAPTURED', 'REFUNDED') to Epicor Kinetic's equivalent payment/invoice statuses.
  • Aggregate daily Vantiv transaction types (sales, refunds, fees) into summary journal entries for Epicor Kinetic's General Ledger based on predefined GL account mappings.
  • Standardize address formats and customer contact information between systems.
  • Ensure all financial amounts are handled with appropriate precision and currency conversion if applicable.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Vantiv API unavailability during payment processing.
  • Invalid `merchantTransactionId` preventing Epicor Kinetic order update.
  • Mismatched currency codes causing transaction failure.
  • Network latency leading to timeouts.
  • Data validation errors during GL posting.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General FAQs

▸ What is Vantiv, and how does it fit into an enterprise integration strategy?
Vantiv, now Worldpay from FIS, is a leading payment processing platform. In an enterprise integration strategy, Vantiv acts as the central hub for securely processing credit card, debit card, and alternative payments. It integrates with your ERP (like Epicor Kinetic) for financial reconciliation, eCommerce platforms for checkout, CRMs for customer payment profiles, and other systems to provide a unified, automated payment lifecycle.

iPaaS Benefits FAQs

▸ Why should I use an iPaaS for Epicor Kinetic and Vantiv integration instead of custom code?
An iPaaS provides pre-built connectors, visual mapping tools, and robust orchestration capabilities specifically designed for complex enterprise integrations. Unlike custom code, iPaaS offers faster development, easier maintenance, better scalability, built-in error handling, and enhanced governance, significantly reducing the total cost of ownership and improving agility for Vantiv and Epicor Kinetic integrations.

Security & Compliance FAQs

▸ How does Vantiv integration help with PCI DSS compliance for Epicor Kinetic?
Vantiv offers tokenization services and hosted payment pages that allow you to process payments without sensitive cardholder data ever touching your internal systems. By integrating with Vantiv via these methods and an iPaaS, you can significantly reduce your PCI DSS scope and compliance burden for Epicor Kinetic, as your ERP only handles non-sensitive payment tokens, never raw card details.

Financial Operations FAQs

▸ Can I automate financial reconciliation with Vantiv and Epicor Kinetic?
Absolutely. Modern iPaaS platforms can fully automate the reconciliation process. They retrieve daily settlement reports from Vantiv, parse the transaction data, apply predefined mapping and business rules, and automatically generate journal entries in Epicor Kinetic's General Ledger, significantly speeding up your financial close and reducing manual errors.

AI Enhancements FAQs

▸ How can AI enhance my Epicor Kinetic and Vantiv payment workflows?
AI can augment Vantiv workflows by providing advanced fraud detection (real-time scoring, anomaly detection), optimizing payment routing for higher approval rates, automating exception handling in reconciliation, and predicting potential payment failures. For Epicor Kinetic, AI can also assist in auto-mapping settlement data to GL accounts and detecting anomalies in financial postings.

Billing & Subscriptions FAQs

▸ Is it possible to manage recurring billing and subscriptions with Epicor Kinetic and Vantiv integrations?
Yes. By integrating Vantiv with a subscription management platform (or a custom billing module in Epicor Kinetic) via iPaaS, you can automate the entire recurring billing lifecycle. This includes securely storing tokenized payment methods, scheduling recurring charges, handling failed payments with dunning logic, and updating subscription statuses in Epicor Kinetic.

API Technical FAQs

▸ What are idempotency keys, and why are they important for Vantiv integrations?
Idempotency keys are unique identifiers sent with Vantiv API requests that modify state (like capturing a payment or processing a refund). If a request is retried, Vantiv uses the key to ensure the operation is executed only once, preventing duplicate transactions and maintaining data integrity, which is especially critical for financial operations impacting Epicor Kinetic.

Error Management FAQs

▸ How do I handle errors and failed transactions in Vantiv integrations with Epicor Kinetic?
Robust error handling is crucial. Implement intelligent retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for transient issues. For persistent failures (e.g., invalid data), route messages to a dead-letter queue for manual investigation. Automated alerts should notify relevant teams immediately of critical payment failures or reconciliation discrepancies to ensure prompt resolution and data consistency in Epicor Kinetic.
