The short answer

What are Epicor integration services?

Epicor integration services link an Epicor ERP to other systems a manufacturer or distributor relies on. Customers, parts, price lists, quotes, sales orders, shipments and invoices flow between Epicor and a CRM such as Salesforce, an online store and a data warehouse. Epicor retains ownership of all items shipped or billed. Good Epicor data integration means no duplicate data entry, all branches have the same view of stock and AI and reporting has enterprise context, meaning data is cross-functional, clean and structured.

  • Won deals land in Epicor as sales orders
  • Stock, pricing, and open invoices visible to sales
  • Enterprise context for Epicor AI

The Epicor challenge

Why does Epicor data drift away from what sales sees?

Epicor is made up of parts, warehouses and branches. A CRM revolves around accounts and deals. Many Epicor installations also run on a server within the plant, outside the reach of cloud tools. Epicor systems integration fills both gaps in code not in spreadsheets.

How it works today

  1. Deals rekeyed at the branch.

    A counter rep types each won deal into Epicor, and deals that never get typed never get built or shipped.

  2. Quotes from stale price lists.

    Reps quote from a price export that's weeks old, so margins slip on every custom price.

  3. No view of what customers owe.

    Sales calls on an account without knowing it's on credit hold.

Once it's connected

  1. Deals become orders automatically.

    Closed-won writes the Epicor order against the right customer and branch.

  2. Live prices and stock in the CRM.

    Price lists and on-hand by warehouse update before reps quote.

  3. Balances on the account.

    Open invoices and holds show next to the deal.

Systems we connect

Epicor ERP integration: which systems can talk to Epicor?

Epicor API integration works with any system that has an API or a database we can reach. Most projects begin with Epicor CRM integration and add commerce and reporting later.

How we connect

  • Custom API builds
  • Event-driven triggers
  • Scheduled batch jobs
  • Read-only database access
  • Site-to-site VPN

Epicor's own services where your version offers them; a read-only database path where it doesn't.

CRM

Accounts, contacts, opportunities, quotes

  • Salesforce
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM
  • Zoho CRM
  • Pipedrive

Use cases

Epicor integrations we build most often

Manufacturers and distributors usually ask for these five, in roughly this order.

CRM → Epicor

Won deal to Epicor sales order

Where most of the Epicor CRM integration work happens. A closed deal in Salesforce or Dynamics 365 will find the Epicor customer, or create it with the correct branch and terms, and write the order. The Epicor order number, ship date, and invoice total are sent back to the deal.

Epicor → CRM

Price lists and stock for quoting

Customer price lists and on-hand quantity by warehouse reach the CRM, so quotes match what Epicor will invoice.

Store → Epicor

Web orders without retyping

B2B portal and Shopify orders post to Epicor against the existing customer and its contract pricing.

Epicor → CRM

Credit holds and open invoices

Balances, past-due amounts, and holds show on the account before a rep calls.

Older Epicor → Kinetic

Upgrading with history intact

Moving from an older Epicor release or another ERP onto Kinetic? We move customers, parts, and open and closed transactions as a planned data migration, then rebuild each existing link against the new system before cutover.

Start with one flow You get a written field list and one fixed price.
Security

How do you protect an on-premise Epicor server?

Your Epicor security groups and your firewall rules set the limits. The integration works inside them.

Bring IT to the call We'll go through the network path step by step.
  1. 01

    No open ports on the ERP

    On-premise Epicor servers connect over a site-to-site VPN. Nothing on the ERP side faces the internet.

  2. 02

    Test environment before live

    Flows run against a test copy of Epicor and get your sign-off there before they touch production.

  3. 03

    Watched around the clock

    Monitoring, alerts, and automatic retries come with every build, including a check that the VPN tunnel is up.

  4. 04

    Only the fields you list

    Every field is mapped and tested on purpose, so cost and margin data stay in Epicor unless you add them.

AI readiness and enterprise context

Why do Epicor AI projects stall without enterprise context?

Epicor knows parts, jobs, and invoices. The CRM knows which accounts are growing, and the service desk knows which products come back. A forecasting model that reads only Epicor sees what shipped, not what's coming.

What is missing is what our CEO, Tim Ritchie, calls enterprise context. Your data needs three things all at once.

  1. Cross-functional data

    Demand signals sit in the CRM, and shipments sit in Epicor. A model needs both to plan stock.

  2. Clean data

    One customer under three Epicor IDs, one per branch, and every account forecast is split three ways.

  3. Structured data

    Shared customer and part numbers, with one owner per field, tell a model which order belongs to which deal.

This has been built by Integrate IQ since 2013 as a strategy partner across sales, finance and service. With it in place, AI is able to help plan inventory and pipeline together.

How we work

How long does an Epicor integration take?

A first flow, usually won deal to sales order, goes live 8 to 12 weeks after kickoff. Other flows follow one at a time.

  1. Week 1

    Epicor review

    product and release, hosting, user defined fields and ids matching customers and parts across systems.

  2. Weeks 2 to 3

    Connection path and field list

    We pick the connection path from the table below and you sign off each field.

  3. Weeks 4 to 5

    Build on a test copy

    Flows run against your Epicor test environment.

  4. Week 6

    Review and backfill

    Your team checks results while history loads in staging.

  5. Weeks 7 to 8

    Production

    Live with alerts on, then year-one support begins. Larger scopes run to week 12.

Schedule discovery Week one is a review of your Epicor setup.
Proof

An on-premise Epicor BisTrack integration for a 10-branch supplier

A construction supplier in the Northwest ran operations on Epicor BisTrack, hosted on its own servers, and sales in a CRM. Deals created in sales never reached the ERP, which broke inventory tracking and quoting. We connected the two both ways through a site-to-site VPN, so every branch works from the same customer record and nobody rekeys sales data.

FAQ

Epicor integration FAQ

What IT managers, controllers, and branch leaders ask us first.

Put a question to an engineer Most get an answer the next business day.

Scope and cost

What is Epicor CRM integration?

It links Epicor to the CRM your sales team uses, usually Salesforce or Dynamics 365. Won deals become Epicor sales orders, and stock, price lists, order status, and open invoices flow back to the CRM so reps quote and follow up with Epicor's numbers.

What is enterprise context, and why does Epicor AI need it?

It's data that is cross-functional, clean, and structured at the same time. For Epicor, that means orders and stock joined to pipeline and service data with shared customer and part IDs, so AI can plan inventory against real demand instead of last year's shipments.

Which Epicor products do you integrate?

Epicor Kinetic, Prophet 21, BisTrack, and older Epicor releases, cloud or on-premise. Each one connects differently, so the first week of every project confirms your product, release, and hosting before we pick a connection path.

How is an Epicor integration priced?

With one fixed price once discovery ends. The biggest factors are your Epicor product and hosting, how many branches or companies you run, how many user-defined fields matter, and how much history you want loaded.

What should you ask an Epicor integration company before you hire one?

Ask who writes the code and who supports it after launch, whether the price is fixed after discovery, and whether you get a written field list. An Epicor system integrator should also explain how it handles your next Epicor upgrade.

How it works

Can you connect an on-premise Epicor server?

Yes. We've connected on-premise Epicor BisTrack over a site-to-site VPN, and we reach other on-premise releases the same way. Nothing on the ERP side is opened to the internet, and monitoring alerts us if the tunnel goes down.

Do you write directly to the Epicor database?

No. Writes go through Epicor's own services so its business rules still apply. Where an older release lacks a service we need, we read from the database with read-only access and on a schedule that doesn't slow the branches.

What happens to our integration when we upgrade Epicor?

We test every flow against the new release in your test environment before you upgrade production, and fix anything that changed. Upgrade checks are part of the first year of support.

How do you handle the same customer set up at several branches?

We agree a match rule and a parent account in the first weeks, then link each branch record to it. Possible duplicates go to a person to confirm instead of being merged automatically.

Working with us

Is a prebuilt Epicor connector enough?

Often, if you run cloud Kinetic with one CRM or store and standard fields. Once you add branches, user-defined fields, or an on-premise server, custom API integration usually costs less than stretching a connector.

Do we need an iPaaS to integrate Epicor?

Only if you have developers to build and run flows on it. Without that team, a custom integration we build and support avoids both the platform license and the hire.

Who supports the Epicor integration after launch?

We do. Monitoring, fixes, upgrade checks, and changes are included for the first year, handled by the engineers who built it.

  3. You receive a written scope and fixed price.

How do you connect to Epicor? Choosing the connection path

"Epicor" covers several different ERPs. Kinetic, Prophet 21, BisTrack, and older Epicor releases each offer different ways in, and hosting changes the picture again. Picking the right path in week one saves rework later.

Epicor connection paths we evaluate in week one. What's available depends on your product, release, and hosting.
Path Good for What we check first
Epicor's REST services (Kinetic) Creating and updating customers, orders, and parts with Epicor's own business rules applied Your release, and whether the service you need exists for it
Saved queries (BAQs) exposed as services Reading a shaped set of data, like stock by warehouse or open invoices Query run time on large tables at busy hours
Custom logic inside Epicor Steps Epicor should run itself, such as pricing or credit checks Who maintains that logic through Epicor upgrades
Prophet 21 and other product APIs Distribution flows on Epicor products outside Kinetic Which endpoints your version exposes
Read-only database access over VPN Older or on-premise releases without the service you need, like the BisTrack build above Read-only credentials and a schedule that spares the ERP

We write to Epicor only through its own services where they exist, so Epicor's validation rules still apply to every record. Direct database access stays read-only. That keeps Epicor in charge of its own data, even when the faster route would be to write straight into a table.

Which system owns each record in an Epicor integration?

Each record has one owner. Only the owner changes it. Every other system reads it, and a disagreement raises a flag rather than an overwrite.

Record Owner Read by
Prospect, deal, quote draft CRM Epicor when the deal is won
Customer, ship-to, terms Epicor once it buys CRM, store
Parts and price lists Epicor CRM, store
Stock by warehouse Epicor CRM, store
Orders, shipments, invoices Epicor CRM, warehouse
Returns and warranty cases Service desk Epicor for credits

What breaks in Epicor integrations, and how do you stop it?

These four show up in most of the Epicor links we're asked to repair. Each one fails quietly.

  • Upgrades that change a service. A new Epicor release renames a field or changes a service, and records stop flowing with no visible error. We test each flow against the new release in your test environment before you upgrade production.
  • Branch-level customer copies. Each branch created its own customer record, so one buyer has several IDs. We agree a match rule and a parent account before any data moves.
  • Heavy queries at the wrong time. A stock query that runs every minute against a large table slows the counter at 8 a.m. We schedule reads around your busy hours and pull only changed records.
  • A dropped VPN tunnel. When the network link to an on-premise server goes down, nothing syncs. Our monitoring checks the tunnel and alerts when it fails, then the queue catches up.
Audit my Epicor link An audit usually takes about a week.

Which Epicor flows should sync in real time?

Run fast where a customer or a rep is waiting, and batch everything else. An on-premise Epicor server serves the branch counter first, so the integration should never compete with it at the busiest hour.

Flow Timing Why
Won deal to sales order Within minutes Production and picking start from the order
Web and portal orders Within minutes Buyers expect a same-day confirmation
Stock by warehouse Every 15 to 30 minutes Close enough for quoting, light on the server
Price lists When they change Price updates are rare but must be exact
Invoices and balances Hourly or daily Reps check them before calls, not mid-call
Warehouse loads Nightly Reports run on closed days

These are starting points. We set the final schedule in week two, after measuring how long your Epicor queries take at busy and quiet hours.

What sets the price of an Epicor integration?

We give one fixed price after discovery. These five factors move it the most.

Factor Lighter Heavier
Product and hosting Cloud Kinetic on a current release Older on-premise release behind a firewall
Branches and companies One company, one site Many branches or companies in one database
Custom fields Standard fields Many user-defined fields and tables
Systems One CRM CRM, store, finance, and warehouse
History Open orders only Years of closed orders and invoices

What should you have ready before an Epicor project starts?

Bring these and discovery moves a week faster.

  1. Your Epicor product, release, and where it's hosted.
  2. Who in IT can set up a VPN and a service account.
  3. The user-defined fields and tables your team relies on.
  4. How branches identify the same customer today.
  5. One owner in operations and one in IT.
