Connect cXML and BigCommerce

Connecting cXML and BigCommerce for a company could enable the automated exchange of procurement data between an e-procurement platform and an online commerce storefront. Such an integration could support the transfer of order information, catalog data, or invoice details, helping to reduce manual data entry and improve process efficiency across purchasing and sales operations.

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

Why connect cXML and BigCommerce?

A company that uses both cXML and BigCommerce could benefit from connecting these systems to enable more accurate and timely data exchange. Without such a connection, staff might need to manually re-enter orders, inventory updates, or product information between the two platforms. This manual process can lead to errors, inconsistencies, and delays, causing records in each system to drift apart. As a result, decisions may be made based on outdated or incomplete information, and customers or partners could receive incorrect updates about product availability or order status. If a connection were established, it could allow for the automatic transfer of purchase orders, shipping notices, invoices, product catalogs, and inventory levels between cXML and BigCommerce. For example, purchase orders created in one system could be reflected in the other, and inventory changes could be synchronized so that both platforms show accurate stock levels. The specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API, and must be determined for each situation.

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 cXML and BigCommerce 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.
