Connect cXML and Infor

Connecting cXML and Infor for a company could enable the automated exchange of procurement documents and transactional data between platforms. This could reduce manual entry, improve data consistency, and support more efficient business processes by allowing information to move electronically between purchasing and enterprise resource planning functions.

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

Why connect cXML and Infor?

A company running both cXML and Infor systems could benefit from connecting them to allow data to be exchanged automatically. Such a connection could help eliminate the need for duplicate data entry, which otherwise increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable staff time. Without a connection, records in each system could drift apart, leading to inconsistencies and making it harder for teams to trust or act on the data. Decisions could end up being made based on outdated or incomplete information if updates in one system do not reach the other in a timely manner. When connecting systems like cXML, which is widely known as a protocol for exchanging business documents such as purchase orders and invoices, and Infor, which is recognized as a provider of enterprise resource planning and business management software, the kinds of data that could be exchanged often include purchase orders, invoices, shipment notifications, and supplier information. The actual 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 Infor 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.
