Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Infor CloudSuite & BigCommerce

Our iPaaS facilitates precise, field-level mapping between core entities in Infor CloudSuite and BigCommerce. Leveraging AI, we streamline the mapping process, ensure data integrity, and handle complex transformations.

Sales Order (Infor CloudSuite) / Order (BigCommerce)

Represents a customer's purchase. Central to the order-to-cash process, linking customer, product, pricing, and fulfillment.

Infor CloudSuite Fields

SalesOrderNumber CustomerNumber OrderDate OrderTotal OrderStatus LineItems (SKU, Quantity, UnitPrice, Discount) BillingAddress ShippingAddress

BigCommerce Fields

id customer_id status total_inc_tax date_created products (sku, quantity, price_inc_tax) billing_address shipping_addresses

Mapping Notes

BigCommerce `id` maps to a custom reference field in Infor CloudSuite for traceability. BigCommerce `status` requires careful translation to Infor CloudSuite `OrderStatus` (e.g., 'Awaiting Fulfillment' -> 'Open', 'Shipped' -> 'Closed'). Line item details (SKU, quantity, price, discounts, taxes) require precise mapping to ensure accurate financial postings.

How do you handle API rate limits for both Infor CloudSuite and BigCommerce?
Our iPaaS includes built-in mechanisms to manage API rate limits, such as intelligent queuing and throttling of requests, using exponential backoff for retries, and batching multiple operations into single API calls where supported. This ensures your integrations operate smoothly without hitting limits, even during peak traffic periods.

Workflows FAQs

Can I automate the entire order fulfillment workflow from BigCommerce to Infor CloudSuite?
Absolutely. The integration automates the entire order-to-cash cycle. New orders from BigCommerce trigger the creation of sales orders in Infor CloudSuite. As orders are fulfilled and shipped in CloudSuite, shipment updates (including tracking numbers) are automatically pushed back to BigCommerce, keeping customers informed and streamlining your logistics.

AI FAQs

How does AI enhance Infor CloudSuite and BigCommerce integrations?
AI significantly augments integrations by providing intelligent data validation, suggesting optimal field mappings, detecting anomalies (e.g., potential fraud in orders), predicting and suggesting resolutions for integration exceptions, and even assisting in generating complex transformation logic. This reduces manual effort, improves data quality, and makes integrations more resilient and proactive.
