Connect Miva and IBM AS/400

Connecting Miva and IBM AS/400 for a company could enable the transfer of order, inventory, or customer data between the e-commerce platform and the enterprise resource planning environment. This integration could support more efficient data management, reduce manual entry, and help maintain consistency across sales and operational systems.

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

Why connect Miva and IBM AS/400?

A company that uses both Miva and IBM AS/400 could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between their e-commerce operations and core business processes. Without a connection, staff may need to manually re-enter orders, inventory updates, or customer information in both systems, which increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable time. This manual process can lead to discrepancies, such as inventory quantities or order statuses drifting apart between the two systems, which can result in poor customer experiences and decisions being made based on outdated or incomplete information. If a connection were established, it could allow for the transfer of key data such as sales orders, inventory levels, customer records, and fulfillment updates. This could help ensure that both systems reflect the same information, reducing the administrative burden and improving data accuracy. For example, orders placed through the Miva e-commerce platform could be automatically sent to the IBM AS/400 for processing, while inventory changes managed in the AS/400 could be reflected on the Miva storefront. The actual data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and must be determined for each specific 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 Miva 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.
