Data Touchpoints

Clarity Orders <-> Dynamics Sales Orders
Clarity Products <-> Dynamics Products (Items)
Clarity Inventory <-> Dynamics Inventory Quantity
Clarity Customers <-> Dynamics Customer (Account)
Clarity Payment Transactions <-> Dynamics General Ledger / Invoices
Clarity Returns <-> Dynamics Return Merchandise Authorizations (RMAs)

"The integration architecture features an iPaaS as the central hub. Clarity eCommerce sends event data (orders, customers, returns) via webhooks to the iPaaS. The iPaaS processes, transforms, and then sends this data to Microsoft Dynamics' Dataverse API for ERP operations. Conversely, Microsoft Dynamics sends product, inventory, and status updates via Business Events or Dataverse API to the iPaaS, which then updates Clarity eCommerce. All critical data flows are bidirectional and event-driven, ensuring real-time consistency."
