Unlock Seamless eCommerce Finance: Integrate Kashflow with Sitecore
Automate Order-to-Invoice, Sync Customer Data, and Reconcile Payments in Real-time for Unprecedented Efficiency and Accuracy.
The High Cost of Disconnected eCommerce & Accounting
Running a Sitecore-powered eCommerce business without a robust integration to Kashflow creates significant operational bottlenecks and financial risks. Manual data transfer between your sales platform and accounting system is slow, error-prone, and scales poorly.
-
Manual creation of Sales Invoices in Kashflow from Sitecore orders.
-
Inconsistent customer data across your eCommerce and accounting platforms.
-
Delayed or inaccurate financial reporting due to batch processing or human error.
-
Time-consuming reconciliation of payments from your payment gateway into Kashflow.
-
Risk of overselling or underselling due to outdated inventory levels.
-
Lack of real-time visibility into your eCommerce business's financial health.

Deep Dive: Kashflow & Sitecore Integration Architecture
Our integration solution orchestrates data flow between Kashflow and Sitecore through a robust, event-driven iPaaS. This architecture ensures secure, scalable, and real-time synchronization of critical business data.
Data Flow Steps
Event Trigger: A business event occurs in either Sitecore (e.g., new order, customer update) or Kashflow (e.g., new customer, product update).
iPaaS Ingestion: The iPaaS captures this event via webhooks or API polling.
Data Transformation: Raw data from the source system is mapped, validated, and transformed into a canonical format suitable for the target system, leveraging AI-assisted mapping.
Business Logic: Conditional rules, data enrichment, and custom logic are applied within the iPaaS workflow.
Target System API Call: The iPaaS invokes the target system's API (Kashflow or Sitecore) to create, update, or retrieve records.
Error Handling & Monitoring: Any failures are logged, retried with exponential backoff, and alerts are sent to relevant teams. Successes are logged for auditing.
Confirmation/Update: The target system confirms the operation, and potentially triggers a reciprocal update back to the source system (for bidirectional syncs).
Data Touchpoints
"The integration flow typically starts with an event in Sitecore (e.g., 'New Order'). This event is captured by the iPaaS via a webhook. The iPaaS then processes, maps, and transforms the Sitecore Order data into a Kashflow Sales Invoice format. It interacts with Kashflow's /v2/customers endpoint to ensure customer existence, and then uses /v2/invoices to create the new Sales Invoice. For bidirectional synchronization, such as Customer data, updates in Kashflow would trigger a similar flow back to Sitecore's xConnect or Commerce Customer APIs."

eCommerce Order-to-Invoice Automation
Automatically create Sales Invoices in Kashflow for every new order placed on your Sitecore eCommerce platform, including line items, customer details, and tax calculations.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Customer completes purchase on Sitecore XC/OrderCloud.
- 1 Sitecore generates 'Order' event.
- 2 iPaaS captures 'Order' data (ID, Customer, TotalAmount, LineItems).
- 3 iPaaS maps Sitecore 'Order' to Kashflow 'Sales Invoice' fields.
- 4 If customer is new, iPaaS creates 'Customer' in Kashflow.
- 5 iPaaS creates 'Sales Invoice' in Kashflow, populating all details.
- 6 Sitecore order status updated to reflect successful invoice creation.
Business Outcome
Instant invoice generation, reduced manual workload for finance, accurate revenue tracking.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Data Type Conversion: Convert Sitecore timestamps to Kashflow's expected date format.
- Value Mapping: Map Sitecore 'OrderStatus' values (e.g., 'Completed') to Kashflow 'InvoiceStatus' (e.g., 'Paid').
- Concatenation/Splitting: Combine Sitecore 'FirstName' and 'LastName' into Kashflow 'Name' field. Split Sitecore full address into Kashflow address lines.
- Conditional Logic: Apply different tax rates based on Sitecore 'TaxClass' or customer's geographical location.
- Default Values: Assign default GL accounts if not explicitly provided by Sitecore product data.
- Currency Conversion: Automatically convert currency if Sitecore and Kashflow operate in different currencies.
🛡️ Error Handling
- Kashflow API returning 400 Bad Request due to invalid invoice line item data.
- Sitecore xConnect API returning 409 Conflict for duplicate contact creation.
- Temporary network outage preventing connection to either API (5xx errors).
- Rate limit exceeded on Kashflow's API during peak eCommerce sales.
- Mismatch in product IDs between Sitecore order and Kashflow product catalog.
