Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Data Mapping

Seamless data flow between Dynamics 365 and Vantiv relies on precise mapping of core business entities. Our iPaaS facilitates this with AI-assisted mapping and robust transformation capabilities.

Transaction

Represents a single payment event in Vantiv (authorization, capture, refund, void) and its corresponding financial record in Dynamics 365.

Dynamics 365 Fields

Sales Order ID (related) Invoice ID (related) Customer Payment Journal Line (Payment ID, Amount, Date, Status) General Ledger Account (for revenue, fees, chargebacks) Payment Method Token (stored on Customer)

Vantiv: Streamline Payments & ERP Fields

transactionId (Vantiv unique ID) merchantTransactionId (your internal order/invoice ID) amount currency status (AUTHORIZED, CAPTURED, REFUNDED, VOIDED) type (SALE, AUTH, REFUND, VOID) paymentMethodType timestamp cardDetails (tokenized)

Mapping Notes

`merchantTransactionId` in Vantiv maps directly to `Sales Order ID` or `Invoice ID` in Dynamics 365 for easy lookup. Vantiv `status` updates drive `Payment Journal Line Status` and `Sales Order Status` in Dynamics 365.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General FAQs

▸ What are the core benefits of integrating Dynamics 365 with Vantiv?
The core benefits include automated financial reconciliation, enhanced PCI DSS compliance through tokenization, real-time visibility into payment statuses, streamlined order-to-cash processes, improved fraud detection, and significant reductions in manual effort and operational costs.

Security FAQs

▸ How does this integration help with PCI DSS compliance?
By leveraging Vantiv's tokenization services, sensitive cardholder data never touches your Dynamics 365 environment or internal systems. The iPaaS securely routes payment data to Vantiv for token generation, and only the non-sensitive token is stored, significantly reducing your PCI DSS scope and compliance burden.

Accounting FAQs

▸ Can I automate financial reconciliation between Vantiv and Dynamics 365's General Ledger?
Absolutely. The integration automates the retrieval of daily settlement reports from Vantiv, parses the transaction and fee data, applies predefined mapping and business rules, and automatically generates journal entries in your Dynamics 365 General Ledger. This eliminates manual reconciliation and speeds up your financial close.

Data Flow FAQs

▸ What kind of data flows between Dynamics 365 and Vantiv?
Key data flows include: Sales Orders/Invoices from Dynamics 365 to Vantiv (for payment initiation), Vantiv Transaction details (status, ID, token) back to Dynamics 365, Vantiv Settlement Batch data to Dynamics 365 GL, and Refund/Void requests from Dynamics 365 to Vantiv. Customer and Payment Method (tokenized) data is also synchronized.

Technology FAQs

▸ How does an iPaaS facilitate this integration compared to custom code?
An iPaaS offers pre-built connectors, visual drag-and-drop workflow design, AI-assisted mapping, robust error handling, and centralized monitoring. This results in faster development, easier maintenance, better scalability, and reduced total cost of ownership compared to complex, brittle custom code solutions, especially for critical financial integrations.

Business Operations FAQs

▸ Is it possible to manage recurring billing and subscriptions with this integration?
Yes. By integrating Vantiv with your subscription management module in Dynamics 365 (or a connected subscription platform) via iPaaS, you can automate recurring charges using tokenized payment methods, manage failed payments with automated dunning logic, and ensure all subscription revenue is accurately reflected in Dynamics 365.

AI FAQs

▸ How can AI enhance the Dynamics 365 Vantiv integration?
AI can provide intelligent mapping suggestions, detect anomalies in financial data for proactive reconciliation, augment Vantiv's fraud detection with predictive analytics, and even suggest automated error resolution strategies. This leads to smarter, more efficient, and more secure payment operations.

Troubleshooting FAQs

▸ What happens if a Vantiv transaction fails during integration?
The iPaaS is designed with robust error handling. For transient issues, it implements intelligent retry logic with exponential backoff. For persistent failures (e.g., invalid card), automated alerts notify relevant teams (e.g., customer service, finance), and the failed transaction is logged and routed to a dead-letter queue for investigation, ensuring no financial data is lost.
