Technical Integration Details: Connecting Kashflow and Epicor
Our integration solution leverages the robust API capabilities of both Kashflow and Epicor, orchestrated by a sophisticated iPaaS. This ensures secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange, tailored to your specific business processes.
Data Flow Steps
API Connection & Authentication: Establish secure connections using OAuth 2.0 (Kashflow) and OAuth 2.0 / Token-based (Epicor) via the iPaaS. Dedicated service accounts with least privilege are provisioned.
Event Listener/Polling Configuration: Configure event triggers (e.g., Epicor BPMs, webhooks from Kashflow if available, or optimized polling for specific endpoints) to detect data changes in source systems.
Data Extraction: The iPaaS extracts relevant data from the source system's API endpoints (e.g., Epicor SalesOrder data, Kashflow Customer details).
Data Mapping & Transformation: Raw data is mapped to a canonical format and then transformed to match the target system's schema and business rules. AI-assisted mapping accelerates this process.
Data Validation: Before sending, data is validated against target system requirements (e.g., mandatory fields, data types) to prevent errors.
Data Ingestion: The transformed and validated data is then sent to the target system's API endpoints (e.g., Kashflow /v2/invoices, Epicor /api/v2/odata/.../Customers).
Error Handling & Monitoring: Any failures are logged, retried with exponential backoff, and alerts are sent. Dead-letter queues store unresolvable issues for manual review.
Status Updates: Where applicable, status updates (e.g., 'Invoice Paid' in Kashflow) can be pushed back to Epicor for end-to-end visibility.
Data Touchpoints
"Epicor (Source) -> iPaaS (Extract, Map, Transform, Validate) -> Kashflow (Target) for Sales Orders to Invoices. Kashflow (Source) -> iPaaS -> Epicor (Target) for Customer updates. Bi-directional sync for master data. Event-driven triggers initiate data flow, with a centralized iPaaS managing all orchestration, error handling, and monitoring."

Epicor Sales Order to Kashflow Sales Invoice Automation
Automate the entire sales process from order capture in Epicor to invoice generation in Kashflow, ensuring accurate and timely billing.
Integration Steps:
- 0 New SalesOrder created or updated in Epicor (event trigger).
- 1 iPaaS extracts SalesOrder header and line item details from Epicor.
- 2 iPaaS maps Epicor SalesOrder data to Kashflow Sales Invoice fields, including Customer lookup/creation.
- 3 Kashflow Sales Invoice is automatically created with correct line items, pricing, and tax rates.
- 4 Payment status updates from Kashflow can optionally flow back to Epicor.
Business Outcome
Reduced manual invoice creation, accelerated billing cycles, improved cash flow, and accurate revenue recognition.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Customer Matching: Logic to match customers by email, `CustID`/`AccountReference`, or name to prevent duplicates.
- Product ID Mapping: Map Epicor `PartNum` to Kashflow `ProductID` and handle different UOMs.
- GL Account Determination: Dynamically assign Kashflow `General Ledger Account` based on Epicor transaction type, product category, or department.
- Tax Rate Harmonization: Standardize tax codes between Epicor and Kashflow to ensure accurate tax calculations on invoices.
- Status Mapping: Translate Epicor `OrderStatus` (e.g., 'Shipped', 'Invoiced') to Kashflow `Invoice Status` ('Outstanding', 'Paid').
- Date Formatting: Ensure consistent date and time formats across both systems.
🛡️ Error Handling
- Epicor API rate limit exceeded: iPaaS pauses and retries with exponential backoff.
- Kashflow data validation error (e.g., invalid CustomerID for invoice): Error logged, alert sent, message moved to dead-letter queue.
- Network outage between iPaaS and Epicor: Integration attempts retried, pending messages queued.
- Mismatched GL accounts for a new expense category: AI flags, alert sent for manual mapping update.
- Duplicate customer creation attempt: Deduplication logic identifies, update existing record or merge.
