Connect katana and IWD

Connecting katana and IWD for a company could enable the transfer of relevant data between the two systems, supporting more efficient management of information and processes. Such an integration could help reduce manual entry, improve data accuracy, and facilitate better coordination between departments that rely on each system for their operations.

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

Why connect katana and IWD?

/A connection between katana and IWD could enable a company to synchronize information across both platforms, reducing the risk of manual data entry errors and ensuring that records remain consistent. Without such a connection, staff may need to enter the same information in both systems, which can lead to discrepancies if updates are missed or entered differently. This could result in records drifting apart, with decisions made on outdated or conflicting data. Companies might want these systems to exchange data to improve efficiency and accuracy, for example by ensuring that inventory, sales orders, or customer information is consistent between both platforms. The specific types of data that could be exchanged depend on what each system is designed for and what business processes are involved. What can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and is determined per 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 katana and IWD 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.
