Unify Your Commerce: Infor CloudSuite & Amazon Marketplace Integration

Achieve Real-time Sync, Automate Operations, and Scale Your Enterprise with Intelligent iPaaS Integration.

The Challenge

Disconnected Systems Cost You Time, Money, and Customers

Operating Amazon Marketplace in isolation from your Infor CloudSuite ERP creates significant operational hurdles. Manual data transfers between these critical systems lead to inefficiencies, errors, and missed opportunities, hindering your ability to scale and compete effectively.

  • Manual Order Entry: Transcribing Amazon orders into Infor CloudSuite is slow, error-prone, and unsustainable for growing sales volumes.
  • Inaccurate Inventory: Discrepancies between Infor's stock levels and Amazon listings lead to overselling, backorders, and disappointed customers.
  • Delayed Financial Reconciliation: Manually processing Amazon's complex settlement reports into Infor Financials is time-consuming and prone to accounting errors, delaying financial closes.
  • Stale Product Data: Keeping product information, pricing, and availability consistent across Infor's Item Master and Amazon listings is a constant, manual battle.
  • Lack of Real-time Visibility: Without unified data, gaining a complete view of customer orders, fulfillment status, and profitability across channels is nearly impossible.

Technical Integration: How Infor CloudSuite Connects with Amazon Marketplace

Our iPaaS solution acts as the central nervous system, orchestrating sophisticated, bi-directional data flows between Infor CloudSuite and Amazon Marketplace. It leverages the strengths of both platforms' APIs and eventing capabilities to ensure robust, real-time synchronization.

Data Flow Steps

Secure Authentication: Establish secure, OAuth 2.0 based connections to both Infor CloudSuite (via IAM) and Amazon SP-API (Login with Amazon).

Event-Driven Triggers: Utilize Infor ION for outbound events (e.g., 'Inventory Updated') and Amazon SP-API Notifications (webhooks) for inbound events (e.g., 'Order Placed').

Data Ingestion & Transformation: The iPaaS ingests data, applies pre-defined or AI-suggested mapping rules, and transforms schemas to ensure compatibility between systems.

Business Logic & Validation: Apply custom business rules, data validation, and enrichment steps within the iPaaS workflow.

API Interaction: Invoke relevant Infor CloudSuite APIs (M3/LN, FMS, SCM) and Amazon SP-API endpoints (Orders, Listings, Fulfillment) to exchange data.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement robust error handling (retries, dead-letter queues) and provide real-time monitoring and alerts for all transactions.

Deployment & Governance: Deploy tested workflows across Dev, QA, and Production environments with strict version control and audit trails.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Seamless Data Flow

The foundation of a robust integration lies in accurate and intelligent mapping of core business entities. Our iPaaS provides visual tools and AI assistance to ensure precise data transformation between Infor CloudSuite and Amazon Marketplace.

Sales Order / Order

Represents a customer's purchase. Critical for initiating fulfillment and financial processes.

Infor CloudSuite & Amazon Fields

SalesOrderNumber (Infor M3/LN) CustomerNumber OrderDate OrderTotal OrderStatus LineItems (SKU, Quantity, UnitPrice, Discount)

Marketplace: Sync ERP & Sales Fields

amazonOrderId purchaseDate orderStatus fulfillmentChannel sellerOrderId shippingAddress orderTotal paymentMethod OrderItem (asin, sku, title, quantityOrdered, itemPrice, promotionDiscount)

Mapping Notes

`amazonOrderId` from Amazon maps to a custom field or external reference on Infor's `SalesOrderNumber`. `OrderItem.sku` is crucial for matching Infor's `LineItems.SKU`. `orderTotal` and `itemPrice` require careful mapping to Infor's pricing structures, considering Amazon's promotions.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General FAQs

What is the primary benefit of integrating Infor CloudSuite with Amazon Marketplace using an iPaaS?
The primary benefit is achieving seamless, real-time data flow and process automation across your Infor ERP and Amazon Marketplace. An iPaaS centralizes integration management, reduces complexity, enables low-code development, and provides robust monitoring and governance, ultimately boosting operational efficiency, preventing overselling, and accelerating financial reconciliation.

Technical FAQs

How does an iPaaS handle Amazon's API rate limits and Infor CloudSuite's performance considerations?
An advanced iPaaS includes built-in rate limit management for both systems. It intelligently queues, batches, and throttles API requests to Amazon's SP-API and Infor's APIs, using strategies like exponential backoff and dynamic delays. This ensures your integrations operate smoothly, preventing errors due to exceeding API call quotas and optimizing throughput for both platforms.
What role does Infor ION play in modern CloudSuite integrations with Amazon?
Infor ION (Intelligent Open Network) is Infor's middleware for asynchronous messaging and workflow. An iPaaS can leverage ION's capabilities to subscribe to business events published by CloudSuite (e.g., 'Inventory Updated', 'Sales Order Status Change') or publish events to ION, enabling highly responsive, event-driven integrations with Amazon Marketplace and reducing the need for direct API polling.

iPaaS Features FAQs

Can I use low-code/no-code tools to build and manage Infor CloudSuite and Amazon Marketplace integrations?
Absolutely. Modern iPaaS platforms offer low-code/no-code environments with visual designers, pre-built connectors for Infor CloudSuite and Amazon SP-API, and drag-and-drop mapping tools. This empowers business analysts and non-developers to configure, test, and deploy complex integration workflows without writing extensive code, accelerating automation initiatives and reducing IT dependency.

Data FAQs

What key data entities are typically synchronized between Infor CloudSuite and Amazon Marketplace?
Key entities include Amazon Orders to Infor Sales Orders, Infor Product/Item Master to Amazon Listings (including pricing), Infor Inventory to Amazon Stock Levels, Infor Shipments to Amazon tracking updates, and Amazon Payment Settlement Reports to Infor General Ledger Entries. Customer data and returns are also frequently synchronized.

AI FAQs

How does AI enhance Infor CloudSuite and Amazon Marketplace integration workflows?
AI significantly augments workflows by providing intelligent data validation, anomaly detection in transaction flows (e.g., unusual order patterns, unexpected fees), automated mapping suggestions between complex schemas, predictive exception handling, and smart routing of workflows. This reduces manual intervention, improves data quality, and makes integrations more resilient and proactive.

Security FAQs

How do you ensure data security and compliance during Infor CloudSuite and Amazon integrations?
Data security is ensured through multiple layers: using secure authentication protocols (OAuth 2.0), encrypting data in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest, implementing least-privilege access controls for integration accounts, IP whitelisting, and adhering to data privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA) via the iPaaS. Compliance with Amazon's Data Protection Policy is paramount, including careful handling and masking of PII.
