Connect AFAS and amazon

Connecting AFAS and Amazon for a company that uses both could enable the automated transfer of financial, order, or inventory data between the two systems. Such a connection could support more efficient management of transactions, improve data consistency, and reduce manual entry by synchronizing relevant business information between the platforms.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between AFAS and amazon around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect AFAS and amazon?

A company operating both AFAS and Amazon systems could benefit from connecting the two in order to enable data exchange between their internal business processes and their online sales channels. Without such a connection, staff might need to manually enter the same information in both systems, which increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable time. This manual process can also result in records becoming inconsistent between systems, so that, for example, product availability, pricing, or order status differ depending on which system is consulted. Such discrepancies could lead to decisions being made based on outdated or incorrect data, which can negatively impact customer satisfaction and business performance. If a connection were established, it could support the exchange of various types of data. For example, product catalog information, stock levels, and pricing details might be sent from AFAS to Amazon, while order data, shipping updates, and customer information could flow from Amazon to AFAS. The specific data exchanged would depend on the business processes in place and the technical capabilities of each system. Ultimately, what can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and is determined on a case-by-case basis.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what AFAS and amazon make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
