Hi,

I have a client who uses MS Dynamics GP to help run their distribution business.

They are wanting to START using e-commerce to sell to dealers and end-users alike.

Can anyone recommend an e-commerce system that has a NATIVE Dynamics GP connector?

Many thanks,

M

None of them do. You will need to add a plugin or extension to get it to work (if one exists).

I’ve recently done an integration for a client and it’s a pain. There will be tears at bedtime. And whatever you do, don’t activate 2FA, everything will stop working.

Hi,

Thanks for your input. 'Tears at bedtime'? Thanks for that, will fatten up the contingency fee!

BigCommerce has a native connector - I'm sure there must be others.

Did you use a connector, like DBSync or from Appesconnect, for instance, or did you write it yourselves?

Thanks,

M

I just used their API. Was quite tortuous to begin with but once all the fields had been mapped and we has established the DB connection it wasn't so bad.

Not sure BigCommerce comes with MS Dynamics integration out the box. I think you need a third party solution (there are loads of them to choose from).

My client had a complex set up. They also didn’t need a lot of the options the third party suppliers offered.

The actual project wasn’t complicated, it was the lack of MS documentation that made it difficult. The result was a lot of forum questions. It also depends on if you are pushing or pulling. Pulling data from MS is lot easier than pushing data.
