Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Data Mapping

Achieving seamless integration requires precise mapping of core business entities between Kentico and Vantiv. Our iPaaS simplifies this complexity with visual tools and AI assistance, ensuring data integrity and consistency across your payment ecosystem.

Order

The central entity in Kentico representing a customer's purchase, which initiates a payment transaction in Vantiv.

Vantiv Fields

OrderID OrderDate OrderStatus CustomerGUID TotalPrice CurrencyCode BillingAddress ShippingAddress PaymentStatus

Kentico Fields

orderId (mapped from Kentico OrderID) amount (mapped from Kentico TotalPrice) currency (mapped from Kentico CurrencyCode) customerId (from Kentico CustomerGUID)

Mapping Notes

Kentico's `OrderID` becomes Vantiv's `orderId` for transaction tracking. `PaymentStatus` in Kentico must be synchronized with `transactionId` and `status` from Vantiv.

Technical FAQs

How does Vantiv integrate with Kentico for real-time payment processing?
Our iPaaS leverages Kentico's webhooks for new order events and Vantiv's payment APIs for authorization and capture. This event-driven approach ensures real-time payment processing, instantly updating order statuses in Kentico and triggering downstream fulfillment workflows.
What are common technical constraints when integrating with Vantiv and Kentico APIs?
Common constraints include API rate limits, specific data formatting requirements, strict security protocols (OAuth 2.0), and the need for idempotent transaction processing. Our iPaaS helps manage these by handling retries, data transformation, authentication, and ensuring compliance with API best practices for both Vantiv and Kentico.

Security & Compliance FAQs

What security standards do Kentico-Vantiv integrations need to meet, specifically PCI DSS?

Workflow Automation FAQs

Can I automate refund processes with Vantiv using low-code tools from Kentico?
Absolutely. Low-code workflow automation tools within our iPaaS allow business users to design workflows that detect refund requests in your Kentico admin or ERP, trigger Vantiv's Refund API, and update all relevant systems without writing code. This streamlines the entire refund lifecycle and ensures accurate financial adjustments.
Can I manage chargebacks effectively with Kentico and Vantiv integrations?
Yes, automate chargeback workflows: when Vantiv notifies of a chargeback (via webhook), our iPaaS can automatically create a case in your CRM, pull relevant Kentico order and customer data, and assign it to the appropriate team for dispute resolution. This accelerates response times and improves win rates.

AI & Automation FAQs

How can AI enhance fraud detection in Vantiv payment workflows for Kentico orders?
AI is integrated to analyze Vantiv transaction data for Kentico orders in real-time. It identifies unusual patterns or anomalies indicative of fraud, generates fraud scores, and can automatically block high-risk transactions or route suspicious payments for manual review, significantly improving your fraud prevention capabilities and reducing losses.

Data Management FAQs

How do I ensure data consistency between Kentico, Vantiv, and my ERP for financial reconciliation?
Our iPaaS uses powerful mapping engines to harmonize data schemas across systems. It ensures that Kentico order payment statuses are synchronized with Vantiv transaction statuses, and that Vantiv's daily settlement reports are accurately mapped to your ERP's General Ledger accounts, automating journal entries and flagging discrepancies.

Business Value FAQs

What are the benefits of using a unified iPaaS for all Kentico and Vantiv integrations?
A unified iPaaS provides a single platform for managing all Kentico and Vantiv integrations, offering centralized monitoring, governance, reusable components, and low-code development.
