Syspro & Sitecore Integration: Powering Unified ERP & Digital Commerce
Connect your Syspro ERP with Sitecore Commerce for real-time inventory, automated order processing, and a seamless 360-degree customer experience.
The Challenge: Disconnected ERP & Digital Commerce
In today's fast-paced digital economy, running Syspro and Sitecore as siloed systems creates significant bottlenecks, leading to operational inefficiencies, poor customer experiences, and missed revenue opportunities. Manual processes simply can't keep up.
-
Manual Data Entry: Re-keying sales orders from Sitecore into Syspro is time-consuming, error-prone, and delays fulfillment.
-
Out-of-Sync Inventory: Discrepancies between Syspro's 'Inventory Record' and Sitecore Commerce's 'Inventory' lead to overselling, backorders, and customer frustration.
-
Fragmented Customer View: Customer data spread across Syspro ('Customer') and Sitecore ('Contact / Customer', 'xConnect') prevents personalized experiences and a holistic understanding of buying behavior.
-
Delayed Order Status: Customers lack real-time updates on their Sitecore orders because fulfillment status in Syspro ('Sales Order', 'Shipment') isn't reflected online.
-
Complex Financial Reconciliation: Matching Sitecore Commerce 'Payment Transactions' with Syspro 'AR Invoices' requires significant manual effort, increasing reconciliation time and error rates.
-
Inconsistent Product Data: Managing product descriptions, pricing, and attributes separately in Syspro ('Product/Item') and Sitecore ('Product', 'Content Hub') leads to inconsistencies and poor data quality.
The Solution: Seamless Syspro & Sitecore Integration with iPaaS
Our Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) provides the intelligent bridge between Syspro's robust ERP capabilities and Sitecore's powerful digital experience and commerce features. It's designed for agility, scalability, and real-time performance, ensuring your business operates as a unified, data-driven entity.
-
API-First & Event-Driven Architecture: Leverage Syspro's native APIs and Sitecore's webhooks/xConnect streams for real-time data synchronization, minimizing latency and ensuring immediate reactions to business events.
-
Low-Code/No-Code Workflow Automation: Visually design, build, and deploy complex integration workflows with intuitive drag-and-drop interfaces, empowering business users and citizen integrators.
-
Robust Data Mapping & Transformation: Utilize advanced mapping engines to handle complex data schemas, enrich data, and validate against Syspro and Sitecore's business rules, ensuring data quality and consistency.
-
Centralized Monitoring & Governance: Gain full visibility into all integration flows with dashboards, alerts, and audit trails, ensuring reliability and compliance.
-
AI-Powered Intelligence: Embed AI for intelligent operations, including automated data validation, anomaly detection, predictive insights, and smart routing of exceptions.

Technical Integration Details: How Syspro & Sitecore Connect
Our iPaaS provides the robust framework for connecting Syspro's ERP APIs and Sitecore's diverse API ecosystem (Commerce, xConnect, Content Hub). This section outlines the technical approach, data flow, and key considerations for a high-performing and secure integration.
Data Flow Steps
Secure Connectivity: Establish encrypted connections (TLS 1.2+) using OAuth 2.0 for Sitecore (Commerce, xConnect, Content Hub) and token-based authentication/API keys for Syspro. IP whitelisting and least privilege principles are applied.
Event Listener Configuration: Configure the iPaaS to listen for events from Sitecore (e.g., webhooks for new orders, xConnect streams for contact updates) and Syspro (e.g., database change data capture, Syspro native events or scheduled API polling).
Data Extraction: Extract relevant data from the source system (e.g., Sitecore 'Order' details, Syspro 'Inventory Record').
Data Transformation & Mapping: Utilize the iPaaS visual mapping engine to transform extracted data into the target system's required format. This involves field-level mapping, data type conversions, conditional logic, and lookups.
Data Validation: Validate transformed data against the target system's business rules and data constraints (e.g., Syspro's mandatory fields, Sitecore's product schema). AI-powered validation enhances this step.
Data Ingestion: Ingest the validated data into the target system using its respective API endpoints (e.g., Syspro's `/APIServices/SalesOrderService/AddSalesOrder`, Sitecore's `/sitecore/api/ssc/commerce/products`).
Error Handling & Retries: Implement robust error handling with intelligent retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and proactive alerting for any integration failures.
Status Updates & Reconciliation: Ensure status updates (e.g., Syspro order status back to Sitecore) and reconciliation processes are in place for data consistency.
Data Touchpoints
"The integration architecture typically involves a central iPaaS layer acting as an orchestrator. Sitecore (Commerce, xConnect) pushes events (e.g., new order) to the iPaaS via webhooks. The iPaaS then processes, transforms, and pushes this data to Syspro via its APIs (e.g., create sales order). Conversely, updates in Syspro (e.g., inventory levels, order status) are either pulled by the iPaaS or pushed via Syspro events, then transformed and updated in Sitecore (Commerce, xConnect) via their respective APIs. This creates a continuous, bi-directional flow of critical business data."

Integration Use Cases
Explore how the integration behaves in real business scenarios, with clearly defined steps, outcomes, and execution patterns.
1. eCommerce Order-to-Cash Automation
Automate the entire sales order lifecycle from Sitecore Commerce to Syspro, ensuring rapid fulfillment and accurate financial processing.
Integration Steps:
- 0 Customer places an order on Sitecore Commerce.
- 1 Sitecore webhook triggers iPaaS workflow for 'Order Placed'.
- 2 iPaaS transforms Sitecore 'Order' data into Syspro 'Sales Order' format.
- 3 iPaaS creates 'Sales Order' in Syspro via `/APIServices/SalesOrderService/AddSalesOrder`, deducting 'Inventory Record'.
- 4 Syspro processes order (picking, packing, shipping – 'Shipment/Fulfillment').
- 5 Syspro updates 'Sales Order Status', triggering iPaaS to update Sitecore 'Order Status' via `/commerce/orders`.
- 6 Syspro generates 'AR Invoice' and records 'Payment' (post-payment gateway processing).
- 7 iPaaS records 'Payment Transaction' in Sitecore (for customer history) and syncs financial details to Syspro for reconciliation.
Business Outcome
Accelerated order processing, reduced manual errors, real-time order tracking for customers, and streamlined financial reconciliation.

API Endpoints & Data Logic
Technical details for developers and architects.
⚡ Transformation Logic
- Data Type Conversion: Convert Sitecore's string-based values to Syspro's numeric or date formats.
- Lookup Tables: Map Sitecore product categories or payment methods to Syspro's predefined codes.
- Conditional Logic: Apply discounts or special pricing based on customer segments or order value, originating from Syspro's 'Price List' data.
- Data Enrichment: Combine customer data from Sitecore with credit limit information from Syspro to create a richer profile.
- Field Concatenation/Splitting: Combine first and last names or split addresses to fit target system requirements.
- Default Value Assignment: Assign default values for non-mandatory fields if source data is missing.
🛡️ Error Handling
- Syspro API throttling due to high volume: Handled by client-side rate limiters and exponential backoff.
- Sitecore order creation failure due to invalid product SKU: Rerouted to DLQ for manual correction, with alert.
- Inventory discrepancy: Trigger automated reconciliation workflow or flag for review.
- Customer record merge conflict: Apply master system precedence rule or flag for human decision.
- Payment gateway timeout: Retry mechanism with detailed logging and customer notification.
