Asperion Microsoft Business Central On-Premise Integration
What can you integrate between
Asperion and Microsoft Business Central On-Premise?
Details
Asperion + Microsoft Business Central On-Premise Integration
Orders can be synced from Microsoft Business Central On-Premise to Asperion.
Process
You can set the status on which orders are send from Microsoft Business Central On-Premise, like only the paid orders.
Once APIcenter retrieves the order data it is processed, add missing data and start the send process towards Asperion. First APIcenter checks if the order already exists, if it exists we skip the order. If it does not exists APIcenter checks if the customer exists and depending on the outcome create or update the customer. APIcenter checks if all products exist and then the order is committed.
APIcenter differentiates in creating the customer based upon the source data received. If APIcenter receives from the source a company name then a company debtor is created with the underlying contact. If there is no company then a person debtor is created.
The check on customer exists is done per default by email address.
Ordertypes
You can determine what type of order you want to send towards Asperion.
Our Asperion integrations support Orders or Invoices.
Settings
Within APIcenter you can set specific settings that are mandatory for Asperion. For a complete overview please check the documentation.
Standard we offer functionality to make specific mappings like payment terms and methods from the Microsoft Business Central On-Premise to the Asperion.
Do you want to make use of a default debtor? This is also per default available in APIcenter.
Datamapper
Per default APIcenter supplies a mapping that makes sure you can send an order towards Asperion. You can also make adjustments to this yourself.
Default fields that are mapped are for example:
- Customer Name
- Billing address street
- Number
- Postalcode
- City
- Country
- Shipping address street
- Number
- Postalcode
- City
- Country
- SKU

- Price
Process
Products are synced from Asperion to Microsoft Business Central On-Premise. Within this sync different types of products are supported. APIcenter gathers the data from Asperion, then it is run through the APIcenter to have the correct settings, values and formats before it is send to Microsoft Business Central On-Premise. Products are created or updated based on the SKU.
You can differentiate within APIcenter the behaviour between creating and updating products. For example when APIcenter creates a product and sends in the long description from the Asperion, but if you enrich the data after this in Microsoft Business Central On-Premise, you don't want to have it overwritten with an update. For this you can set a checkbox to update the product info.
Product types
Supported product types: Simple, virtual, variant/configurable products.
Attributes/Features

You add your systems/applications first. Then you generally indicate what you want to link, for example products or orders. In the next step you will be asked what your specific wishes are. When that is filled in, you are done and you can test whether everything works as you wish! It can be that simple.
