Connect cXML and Epicor

Connecting cXML and Epicor for a company could enable the transfer of procurement-related data such as purchase orders and invoices between the two systems. This connection could support automation of document exchange, improve data accuracy, and reduce manual entry by allowing electronic communication of business transactions between trading partners and the ERP environment.

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

Why connect cXML and Epicor?

A company operating both cXML and Epicor could benefit from connecting the two systems to improve operational efficiency and data accuracy. If these systems were not connected, staff might be required to enter the same information in both places, increasing the risk of human error and consuming valuable time. Without a connection, records such as purchase orders, invoices, or product details could become inconsistent between the systems, leading to confusion and potential mistakes in financial or supply chain decisions. This could result in decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete information, which can negatively impact business performance. If a connection were established, it could enable automated exchange of data such as purchase orders, invoices, shipment notifications, and catalog information, depending on what each system is designed to handle. cXML is widely used for standardized electronic business document exchange, while Epicor is known as an ERP platform that manages business processes such as purchasing, inventory, and finance. The actual data that could be exchanged would depend on the capabilities exposed by each system’s API and would need to be determined for each specific implementation.

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 Epicor 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.
