Infor CloudSuite & WordPress Integration: Power Your Digital Business

Connect your Infor CloudSuite ERP with WordPress for real-time data synchronization, automated workflows, and a unified customer experience across your digital touchpoints.

The Challenge

The Disconnect Between Your ERP and Digital Front-End

Operating Infor CloudSuite and WordPress in silos creates significant operational inefficiencies, data discrepancies, and hinders your ability to deliver seamless customer experiences. Businesses often struggle with manual data transfer, delayed updates, and a fragmented view of their operations.

  • Manual data entry leads to errors and delays in order processing, inventory updates, and financial reconciliation.
  • Inconsistent product and pricing information across WordPress and Infor CloudSuite frustrates customers and impacts sales.
  • Lack of real-time inventory synchronization results in overselling, backorders, and poor customer satisfaction.
  • Fragmented customer data prevents a holistic 360-degree view, impacting personalized marketing and service.
  • Delayed financial postings and reporting due to manual reconciliation of eCommerce transactions.
  • Inefficient employee onboarding processes if HR data from WordPress forms isn't integrated with Infor HCM.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Field-Level Data Mapping

A successful integration hinges on precise mapping of core business entities between Infor CloudSuite and WordPress. Our iPaaS provides granular control and AI assistance for this crucial step.

Sales Order / Order (WordPress)

Represents a customer's request for products/services. Central to the order-to-cash process, originating from WordPress and flowing into Infor CloudSuite for fulfillment.

Infor CloudSuite Fields

SalesOrderNumber (unique ID) CustomerNumber (linked to Infor Customer) OrderDate OrderTotal OrderStatus (e.g., 'New', 'Processing', 'Shipped', 'Invoiced') LineItems (SKU, Quantity, UnitPrice, Discount) ShippingAddress BillingAddress PaymentMethod TransactionID

WordPress Fields

id (WordPress Order ID) customer_id (WordPress User ID) date_created total status (e.g., 'pending', 'processing', 'completed') line_items (product_id, quantity, subtotal) shipping (address_1, city, state, postcode, country) billing (address_1, city, state, postcode, country) payment_method transaction_id

Mapping Notes

WordPress `id` maps to a custom reference field on Infor `SalesOrder`. WordPress `customer_id` maps to Infor `CustomerNumber` after customer sync. Careful mapping of `line_items` for product IDs, quantities, and pricing is critical. Status changes in Infor drive updates back to WordPress.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST /infor/m3/api/v1/salesorders Create new sales orders in Infor M3 from external systems (e.g., WordPress eCommerce).
PATCH /infor/scm/api/v1/inventory/items/{itemId}/locations/{locationId} Update inventory levels for a specific item at a given location in Infor SCM, critical for real-time stock sync to WordPress.
POST /infor/fms/api/v1/journalentries Post financial journal entries to Infor CloudSuite Financials from external GLs or sub-ledgers (e.g., WordPress payment gateway transactions).
GET /infor/hcm/api/v1/employees Retrieve employee records from Infor CloudSuite HCM for HR data synchronization.
POST /infor/ion/api/v1/events Publish custom business events to the Infor ION message bus for event-driven integrations.
POST/GET/PATCH /infor/crm/api/v1/customers Create, retrieve, or update customer records in Infor CloudSuite CRM/M3/LN, used for synchronizing WordPress user data.

Transformation Logic

  • Concatenate WordPress `first_name` and `last_name` into Infor `CustomerName`.
  • Convert WordPress `total` (string) to Infor `OrderTotal` (decimal).
  • Map WordPress `line_items.product_id` to Infor `ItemNumber` and perform lookup if needed.
  • Translate WordPress `status` values (e.g., 'processing', 'completed') to Infor `OrderStatus` equivalents (e.g., 'New', 'Shipped').
  • Apply currency conversion rates when transferring financial data if operating in multiple currencies.
  • Normalize address formats (e.g., street, city, postal code) to match Infor's structured address fields.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Infor CloudSuite API rate limit exceeded: iPaaS automatically throttles and retries with exponential backoff.
  • Invalid product SKU from WordPress: Data is quarantined, alert is sent, AI suggests matching a similar product or manual intervention.
  • Network timeout during data transfer: iPaaS retries the operation, ensuring idempotency.
  • Mandatory field missing in WordPress order: Transaction fails validation, is logged, and an alert is triggered for immediate review.
