Connect Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and akeneo

Connecting Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and Akeneo would involve establishing data flows between enterprise resource planning and product information management functions. This could enable consistent product data across both systems, support updates to inventory and pricing, and help maintain accurate product catalogs for sales channels managed in Dynamics 365 F&SCM.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and akeneo around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and akeneo?

A company running both Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and Akeneo could benefit from allowing these systems to exchange data, as this could reduce manual effort and help ensure consistency across business operations. Without a connection, staff may have to enter the same product or inventory information into both systems, which increases the risk of mistakes and leads to inefficiencies. Over time, records could drift apart, with each system holding different details for the same item, making it difficult to trust the data when making operational or strategic decisions. Decisions based on outdated or inconsistent figures could affect inventory management, sales, and customer satisfaction. For companies using these systems, the types of data that could be exchanged include product information, such as descriptions, specifications, and images, as well as inventory levels and pricing details. Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM is widely known as an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, while Akeneo is known as a product information management (PIM) system. Exchanging data between them could help ensure that accurate and up-to-date product data is available in both places, supporting both operational efficiency and customer-facing activities. 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 Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and akeneo 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.
