Connect Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and cXML

Connecting Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and cXML could enable automated exchange of procurement and invoice data between the ERP system and trading partners using the cXML standard. This setup could support electronic purchase orders, invoices, and acknowledgments, reducing manual entry and improving data accuracy across procurement and financial workflows.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and cXML 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 cXML?

A company operating both Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&SCM and cXML could consider connecting these systems to enable more efficient and accurate data exchange. Without a connection, staff may need to manually input the same information into both platforms, which increases the risk of errors, delays, and inconsistencies. For example, purchase orders created in one system could be entered again in the other, resulting in duplicate data entry and diverging records over time. This situation can lead to operational inefficiencies and decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete information if the two systems are not kept in sync. If a connection were established, it could support the exchange of transactional data such as purchase orders, invoices, shipment notices, and catalog information. This type of data is commonly exchanged between enterprise resource planning systems and procurement communication protocols like cXML. Automating the flow of such information could help reduce administrative overhead, improve accuracy, and ensure that all parties have access to the most current data. However, 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 cXML 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.
