Data Mapping

Core Data Entities & Intelligent Mapping

Effective integration relies on precise mapping of core business entities. Our iPaaS provides robust tools and AI assistance to ensure seamless and accurate data flow between Shopware and NetSuite's diverse data structures.

Order / Sales Order

Represents a customer's purchase. The Shopware `Order` is transformed into a NetSuite `Sales Order` to initiate fulfillment and billing.

Shopware Fields

id orderNumber orderDate amountTotal amountNet taxStatus currencyId customerId orderCustomerId stateId billingAddress shippingAddress lineItems (productId, label, quantity, unitPrice, totalPrice) deliveries (trackingCodes, shippingCosts) transactions (paymentMethodId, amount, stateId, transactionId)

NetSuite Fields

entity (Customer internalId) tranDate shipDate status memo location subsidiary currency item (sublist: item (Item internalId), quantity, rate, amount, taxCode, taxRate, fulfillmentPreference) shippingCost discountAmount otherRefNum (for Shopware orderNumber)

Mapping Notes

Shopware's `orderNumber` should map to a unique identifier in NetSuite, often `otherRefNum` or a custom field, to link back. `customerId` from Shopware needs to be resolved to NetSuite's `internalId` for the corresponding customer. `lineItems` require careful mapping, especially `productId` to NetSuite `Item`'s `internalId` or `itemId`. Shipping costs and discounts are mapped to specific NetSuite fields or line items.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST, GET, PATCH /api/v3/order Primary endpoint for managing customer orders. Used by iPaaS to retrieve new orders (via webhooks) and update order statuses or add tracking information.
POST, GET, PATCH /api/v3/product Central for product catalog management. iPaaS uses this to update product details, pricing, and crucially, inventory levels (`stock` field), typically sourced from NetSuite.
POST, GET, PATCH /api/v3/customer Manages customer profiles and addresses. iPaaS uses this to retrieve new Shopware customers for NetSuite creation or to update customer details bidirectionally.
POST, GET /api/v3/media Handles digital assets. Relevant for synchronizing product images if NetSuite stores image URLs or if a PIM pushes media through iPaaS to Shopware.
GET /api/v3/payment-method Retrieves available payment methods. Useful for configuring payment gateway integrations or ensuring consistency with NetSuite payment mapping.

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Currency Conversion: Automatically convert currencies if Shopware and NetSuite operate in different base currencies, using defined exchange rates.
  • Tax Mapping: Translate Shopware's tax codes/rates to NetSuite's tax schedules and codes.
  • Custom Field Aggregation: Combine multiple Shopware custom fields into a single NetSuite custom field, or vice-versa.
  • Data Enrichment: Add default values or derive new data points (e.g., customer segment) based on existing data during flow.
  • String Manipulation: Format text fields (e.g., capitalize names, remove special characters) to ensure consistency.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • NetSuite Governor Limits: Excessive API calls lead to throttling; iPaaS queues and retries.
  • Invalid Data: Shopware order contains a product SKU not found in NetSuite; iPaaS flags and potentially routes to exception handling.
  • Network Latency: Delays in data transmission; iPaaS retries with exponential backoff.
  • Record Locking: Concurrent writes to the same NetSuite record; iPaaS manages concurrency and retries.
  • Authentication Failure: Expired API tokens; iPaaS attempts re-authentication or alerts.
