Connect Jetshop and IBM AS/400

Connecting Jetshop and IBM AS/400 for a company could make it possible to exchange product, inventory, and order data between the e-commerce platform and the enterprise resource planning system. This could support more efficient management of online sales, stock levels, and back-office processes by reducing manual data entry and improving data consistency across both systems.

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

Why connect Jetshop and IBM AS/400?

A company that operates both Jetshop and IBM AS/400 could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between their e-commerce and enterprise resource planning environments. Without such a connection, staff may need to manually enter the same information in both systems, increasing the risk of errors and consuming extra time. This manual process could result in data inconsistencies, where, for example, inventory levels or order statuses differ between systems. Such discrepancies could lead to decisions being made based on outdated or incorrect information, affecting customer satisfaction and operational efficiency. If these systems were connected, commonly exchanged data could include product information, order details, inventory balances, pricing, and customer records. Synchronizing this information could help ensure that each system reflects the current state of the business, reducing the risk of errors and improving the timeliness of business processes. Ultimately, the specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system makes available through its API and must be determined for each individual 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 Jetshop 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.
