Connect Hybris and IBM AS/400

Connecting Hybris and IBM AS/400 for a company could enable automated data exchange between the e-commerce platform and the enterprise resource planning system. This could support activities such as synchronizing inventory, updating order statuses, and managing customer information across both environments, reducing manual data entry and improving operational efficiency.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Hybris and IBM AS/400 around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Hybris and IBM AS/400?

A company operating both Hybris and IBM AS/400 could benefit from enabling data exchange between the two systems. This connection could help ensure that information such as customer orders, product details, inventory levels, and pricing remains consistent across both platforms. Without such a connection, staff may need to manually enter the same data into both systems, increasing the risk of errors and consuming valuable time. Separate records in each system could drift apart, resulting in discrepancies that lead to confusion, operational inefficiencies, or poor customer experiences. Decisions made using outdated or mismatched data could negatively affect business performance, especially when accurate and timely information is essential for inventory management, order fulfillment, and financial reporting. Data commonly exchanged between e-commerce platforms and enterprise resource planning or legacy systems includes order transactions, customer records, product catalogs, and stock availability. The actual types of data that can be exchanged depend on what each system exposes through its API and must be determined for each specific case.

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 Hybris and IBM AS/400 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.
