Unlock Mid-Market Growth: AI-Powered Epicor & Walmart Marketplace Integration

Automate Orders, Inventory, and Products in Real-time with a Low-Code iPaaS for Unmatched Efficiency and Scalability.

The Challenge

The Cost of Disconnected Systems: Why Manual Epicor & Walmart Operations Fail

Mid-market businesses relying on Epicor ERP for their core operations often struggle to keep pace with the demands of high-volume e-commerce channels like Walmart Marketplace. Disparate systems create operational bottlenecks, data inconsistencies, and significant manual overhead, hindering growth and customer experience.

  • Manual Order Processing: Copying orders from Walmart to Epicor is slow, error-prone, and unsustainable at scale.
  • Inventory Discrepancies: Outdated stock levels lead to overselling on Walmart, resulting in cancellations, chargebacks, and frustrated customers.
  • Stale Product Information: Manually updating product listings, pricing, and descriptions across both systems is time-consuming and prone to errors.
  • Inefficient Returns Handling: Disconnected return processes delay refunds, damage seller ratings, and create reconciliation nightmares.
  • Lack of Real-time Visibility: Without unified data, making informed business decisions across sales channels is nearly impossible.

Technical Integration: Connecting Epicor and Walmart Marketplace

Our iPaaS provides robust, API-first connectivity between Epicor ERP and Walmart Marketplace, orchestrating complex data flows with intelligence and precision. We leverage the strengths of both platforms to create a resilient and scalable integration architecture.

Data Flow Steps

1. API Connectivity: Establish secure connections using OAuth 2.0 for Walmart Marketplace and OAuth 2.0/token-based authentication for Epicor Kinetic REST APIs.

2. Event/Trigger Configuration: Configure Epicor Business Process Management (BPM) or custom event publishers to trigger iPaaS workflows on key data changes (e.g., new SalesOrder, inventory update). For Walmart, utilize event-driven polling or webhooks if available, coupled with intelligent change detection.

3. Data Extraction: Extract relevant data from the source system (e.g., Walmart `Order` details, Epicor `Part` inventory) using their respective APIs.

4. AI-Assisted Mapping & Transformation: Our AI co-pilot suggests and validates data mappings. The iPaaS's visual mapping canvas allows for drag-and-drop transformation of data schemas (e.g., Walmart's `purchaseOrderId` to Epicor's `PONum`).

5. Business Logic & Validation: Apply custom business rules and data validation logic (e.g., check for valid SKUs, minimum order quantities) within the iPaaS, often with AI-generated suggestions.

6. Data Ingestion: Push transformed and validated data to the target system's API (e.g., create Epicor `SalesOrder` via POST, update Walmart `Inventory` via PUT).

7. Error Handling & Retry: Implement robust error handling, including automated retries with exponential backoff for transient issues and dead-letter queues for persistent failures, with AI-driven diagnostics.

8. Status Updates & Reconciliation: Update status back to the source system (e.g., Walmart order status) and log all transactions for audit and reconciliation.

Data Touchpoints

Walmart Marketplace: `Order`, `Item`, `Inventory`, `Price`, `Shipment`, `Return`, `Customer`
Epicor ERP: `SalesOrder`, `Part (Product)`, `Customer`, `Invoice (AR)`, `CashReceipt`, `JobHead (Production Order)`, `ShipVia`

"Walmart Marketplace (New Order) --> iPaaS (Extract, AI Map, Transform) --> Epicor ERP (Create Sales Order, Allocate Inventory) --> Epicor (Shipment Confirmation) --> iPaaS (Extract, Map) --> Walmart Marketplace (Update Order Status, Tracking). Epicor ERP (Inventory Change) --> iPaaS (Extract, AI Map, Transform) --> Walmart Marketplace (Update Inventory)."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & AI-Assisted Mapping for Epicor and Walmart Marketplace

Seamless integration relies on precise mapping of core business entities. Our iPaaS, powered by AI, simplifies this complex process by intelligently bridging the data models of Epicor and Walmart Marketplace.

Order / SalesOrder

Synchronizes customer purchase orders from Walmart Marketplace to Epicor ERP for fulfillment and financial processing.

Epicor Fields

OrderNum OrderDate CustNum ShipToNum PONum OrderAmt OrderStatus OrderDtl (PartNum, OrderQty, UnitPrice)

Walmart Marketplace Fields

purchaseOrderId customerOrderId orderDate orderStatus shippingInfo (name, address, phone) orderLines (sku, quantity, unitPrice)

Mapping Notes

Walmart's `purchaseOrderId` often maps to Epicor's `PONum` or a custom `Character01` field. Walmart `orderLines` map directly to Epicor `OrderDtl` for product details. Customer information from `shippingInfo` creates or updates an Epicor `Customer` record for the order.
