Scalable & Secure Integration Architecture for ERP Harmony

The integration leverages a modern iPaaS as the central nervous system, connecting SAP Business One and Epicor E10 through a robust, event-driven, and API-first architecture. This design ensures high availability, scalability, and data integrity.

Data Flow Steps

API-First Integration: Prioritize using the native RESTful APIs of both ERPs for robust and future-proof connections.

Event-Driven Architecture: Leverage webhooks from SAP B1 and BPM triggers from Epicor E10 to enable real-time data synchronization.

Canonical Data Model: Define a standardized data format for core entities to simplify mapping and future integrations.

Asynchronous Processing: Utilize message queues to handle high transaction volumes and ensure system responsiveness.

Micro-integrations: Break down complex workflows into smaller, manageable, and independently deployable integration flows.

Data Touchpoints

Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS): Central orchestration, connectors, mapping, transformation, workflow engine, monitoring, security.
SAP Business One Service Layer: RESTful API for modern connectivity to SAP B1.
Epicor E10 RESTful APIs (via ICE): API endpoints for business objects and methods in E10.

How Middleware Integration Works

Benefits of Integrating SAP Business One

Integrating SAP Business One fosters greater efficiency and data accuracy. Automate your critical business processes to deliver consistently outstanding results.

Data Mapping

Data Entity Mapping

Explore how data flows between systems with intelligent field mapping and transformation logic.

Customer / Business Partner

Synchronizing customer master data ensures a unified view of customer information across sales, service, and finance.

SAP Business One Fields

CardCode (Key) CardName CardType (Customer) Address Phone Email FederalTaxID ContactPersons

Epicor E10 Fields

CustNum (Key) CustID Name Address1 City State Zip Country PhoneNum EmailAddress TermsCode SalespersonCode

Mapping Notes

Requires careful mapping of `CardType` to Epicor's Customer context. Address structures may differ and require multi-field concatenation/splitting. `ContactPersons` in SAP B1 maps to 'Contacts' in Epicor. Deduplication logic is crucial for initial loads and ongoing syncs based on `CustID`/`CardCode` or email/name combinations.

E-commerce Order-to-Cash Automation

Automate the entire sales order lifecycle from an e-commerce platform into Epicor E10 (for manufacturing/fulfillment) and SAP Business One (for financial posting), including customer creation, sales order entry, inventory allocation, and shipment/invoice synchronization.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 New Sales Order created in E-commerce platform triggers iPaaS.
  2. 1 iPaaS creates/updates Customer in Epicor E10 and Business Partner in SAP B1.
  3. 2 Sales Order created in Epicor E10 with line items and pricing.
  4. 3 Inventory levels updated in Epicor E10 and synchronized back to E-commerce and SAP B1.
  5. 4 Shipment initiated in Epicor E10, tracking info updated in E-commerce.
  6. 5 A/R Invoice generated in Epicor E10 and synchronized as A/R Invoice in SAP B1.
  7. 6 Payment received via E-commerce synchronized as Incoming Payment in SAP B1.

Business Outcome

Accelerated order fulfillment, improved cash flow, reduced manual order entry errors, real-time inventory accuracy, enhanced customer experience.

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Canonical Data Model: All data is transformed to and from a standardized, canonical format within the iPaaS, simplifying complex mappings and ensuring consistency.
  • Field Mapping & Concatenation: Combine multiple source fields (e.g., Epicor E10 'Address1', 'City', 'State') into a single target field (e.g., SAP B1 'Address').
  • Lookup Table Translations: Translate codes (e.g., Epicor E10 `TermsCode` to SAP B1 Payment Terms) using pre-configured lookup tables within the iPaaS.
  • Conditional Logic: Apply transformations only if certain conditions are met (e.g., apply discount only for specific customer groups).
  • Data Type Conversion: Automatically convert data types (e.g., string to integer, date format changes) between systems.
  • Unit of Measure (UoM) Conversion: Handle complex UoM conversions between manufacturing (Epicor) and financial (SAP B1) contexts.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • API Rate Limit Exceeded: iPaaS automatically queues and retries requests with exponential backoff.
  • Data Validation Failure: Message is routed to DLQ, alert sent, and AI suggests potential fix.
  • Network Interruption: Automatic retries ensure eventual delivery once connectivity is restored.
  • Duplicate Record Creation: Idempotent design prevents duplicates; conflict resolution logic handles existing records.
  • Mandatory Field Missing: Pre-validation catches this; workflow fails early, error logged.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General FAQs

▸ What are the primary benefits of integrating SAP Business One with Epicor E10?
Integrating SAP Business One with Epicor E10 provides a unified view of critical business data, automates workflows like order-to-cash and procure-to-pay, ensures real-time inventory accuracy, accelerates financial close processes, and eliminates manual data entry errors. This leads to increased operational efficiency, reduced costs, and better decision-making.

Technical FAQs

▸ How does an iPaaS facilitate the integration between these two ERP systems?
A modern iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) acts as a central hub, providing pre-built connectors, low-code visual mapping tools, and workflow orchestration capabilities. It leverages the native APIs of both SAP Business One (Service Layer) and Epicor E10 (RESTful APIs via ICE) to facilitate secure, scalable, and event-driven data exchange, abstracting the technical complexities.
▸ Is real-time data synchronization possible between SAP Business One and Epicor E10?
Yes, real-time data synchronization is entirely possible and highly recommended for many scenarios. By utilizing SAP Business One's Service Layer webhooks and Epicor E10's Business Process Management (BPM) triggers in conjunction with an event-driven iPaaS, changes in one system (e.g., a new sales order, inventory adjustment) can instantly trigger updates in the other.
▸ How do you handle errors and ensure data integrity during integration?
Our solution employs a multi-tiered error handling strategy: inline validation within the iPaaS, robust API response handling, automatic retries with exponential backoff for transient errors, and dead-letter queues (DLQs) for persistent failures. Real-time alerts and comprehensive monitoring dashboards ensure quick diagnosis and resolution, maintaining data integrity.

AI Features FAQs

▸ How does AI enhance the SAP Business One and Epicor E10 integration workflows?
AI significantly enhances integrations by offering capabilities like automated data validation, intelligent mapping suggestions, anomaly detection (e.g., flagging unusual transactions), and autonomous exception handling. This reduces manual effort, improves data quality, and provides proactive insights, making your integrations smarter and more resilient.

Data FAQs

▸ What are the common data entities synchronized between SAP Business One and Epicor E10?
Key entities commonly synchronized include Customer/Business Partner master data, Item/Part master data, Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Inventory levels, A/R & A/P Invoices, and Production Orders/Jobs. Ensuring consistent mapping and transformation of these entities is critical for a successful integration.

Customization FAQs

▸ Can I integrate custom fields or business logic unique to my company?
Absolutely. The iPaaS platform supports the integration of custom fields (UDFs in SAP B1, UD fields in Epicor E10) through its visual mapping tools. You can also extend standard integration workflows with custom business logic, conditional routing, and rules engine support, all configurable with low-code/no-code methods.

Security FAQs

▸ What security measures are in place for this integration?
Security is paramount. All integrations use encrypted communication (HTTPS/TLS), implement strong authentication (e.g., OAuth 2.0 managed by iPaaS), and follow the principle of least privilege for integration user accounts in both ERPs. The iPaaS provides secure credential management, audit trails, and adheres to industry compliance standards like ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II.
