Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Magento Integration


We have recently extended our Integration offering to Microsoft Dynamics NAV marketplace for Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Magento Integration. With the new connection bridge known as APPSeCONNECT (formally known as NAVeCONNECT) you can seamlessly integrate your Microsoft Dynamics NAV with Magento eCommerce platform. The powerful features offered by Dynamics NAV and Magento can be integrated to allow the two systems to “talk to each other”. By linking the two systems, they work together to produce increased business benefits, and the value and tools offered by each system are enhanced even further.

Business Challenges

eCommerce is the most modernized way of selling products. eRetail Business owners are free to use Magento as their eCommerce platform because it’s quickly customizable and flexible to use. On the other hand to control Back Office Operations like Purchase, Inventory Management, Accounting, etc. they use SME ERP Systems like Microsoft Dynamics NAV, though quite often we see that both environments work separately. Here they miss out on the paybacks of an integrated automated system. Imagine getting the eCommerce data directly from your ERP system without any human interaction, it offers you numerous benefits.

So as we identified Integration is a required element, but doing that is a real challenge because eCommerce only consider Sales Process while ERP associates Sales Process with Inventory, Warehouse, Accounting, and Purchase Cycle Management.

With our new Integration Solution, you can safely and securely exchange data in real-time concerning Customer details, Orders, Item details, Payment & Shipping information between Magento Commerce and Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

Solution: Integrated system for Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Magento eCommerce

APPSeCONNECT provides an automated integration between Microsoft Dynamics NAV and eCommerce by using a web service layer between the two applications. Automated jobs are set up that can run at different timed intervals. The integration is secured by encrypting any sensitive data in a SOAP envelope. Customers can host Magento online store in the same network where Navision resides or in a completely different network such as by using a dedicated server with a third-party hosting service.

#1: Order/Customer Integration

When a customer places an order in Magento; the connector will check if the order came from a new customer or an existing customer. If the order is from the new customer; the connector will create a customer in Microsoft Dynamic NAV and later create the Order. When an existing customer creates an order, Connector will track for the unique customer ID in Microsoft Dynamic NAV and will place the order against that existing customer ID.

The inventory information is updated on the Magento from Microsoft Dynamics NAV through the connector. When stock update operations happen in the ERP system, the connector will check the updated product’s inventory in the ERP system and will fetch information at regular intervals to the Magento eCommerce Platform.
