Microsoft Dynamics Integration for eCommerce

Dynamics 365 Business Central connected to Shopify, Adobe Commerce, and custom platforms, with orders, stock, pricing and invoices that stay in step.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central runs a lot of mid-market Australian operations, and its API surface is capable but particular. I connect Dynamics to Shopify, Adobe Commerce, and custom Laravel platforms so orders flow in, stock and customer-specific pricing flow out, and invoices reconcile, all with the retries, idempotency, and monitoring that keep a business-critical sync honest. As with any ERP, the hard part is not the first API call, it is what happens on the day something upstream goes wrong.

My integration track record

I run ERP integrations in production against Options ERP, NetSuite, MYOB, and Xero, including a nightly sync of around ten million rows at 100% success. A Dynamics 365 Business Central sync is the same class of work, approached the same way.

Capabilities

What I build with Microsoft Dynamics

The Microsoft Dynamics integration work I most often take on. If yours sounds like one of these, we should talk.

Orders & Invoices

Website orders into Dynamics as sales orders or invoices, mapped to the right accounts and tax treatment, with idempotent writes so a retry never duplicates.

Inventory & Pricing

Stock levels and customer-specific pricing pulled from Dynamics into your storefront, so B2B customers see their negotiated price and nobody oversells stock that is not there.

Business Central APIs

Dynamics 365 Business Central exposes standard and custom API pages plus OData. I use the right one for each job so the integration is efficient and does not fight the platform.

Monitoring & Reconciliation

Retries, alerting, and reconciliation so a failed sync surfaces immediately rather than turning into an operations problem nobody spots until month end.

How it works

A Microsoft Dynamics integration built to last

The same approach behind every integration I ship, from the first conversation to the years of maintenance that follow.

01

Scope & map

We map exactly what needs to move between Microsoft Dynamics and your store: orders, stock, pricing, customers, and where the awkward edge cases hide.

02

Build for redundancy

I build the integration around the failure modes: retries with backoff, idempotent writes, and reconciliation, so it holds up when the API has a bad day.

03

Test & reconcile

Tested against real data in a safe environment, with reconciliation reporting that proves Microsoft Dynamics and your store actually agree before go-live.

04

Monitor & maintain

Monitoring and alerting from launch, so failures surface immediately, and the same developer who built it is the one who keeps it running.

The Difference

A Business Central sync lives or dies on its bad-day behaviour.

A Dynamics integration is only as good as its behaviour under failure. I design for the bad day first, then write the vendor-specific code.

A typical agency

Ships the happy path.

  • A junior wires up the standard API pages, ships the happy path, and never accounts for retries or reconciliation.

  • When a sync fails it fails silently, and you find out at month end when the numbers do not reconcile.

Working with me

Designs for the failures.

  • Idempotency, retries, and reconciliation are designed in from day one, using the right Business Central API for each job.

  • Monitoring and reconciliation catch failures immediately, and the same developer who built it is the one who fixes it.

FAQ

Common Microsoft Dynamics Integration Questions

The questions I get asked most often about integrating Microsoft Dynamics.

Can Microsoft Dynamics integrate with Shopify?

Yes. Dynamics 365 Business Central can sync orders, inventory, customer-specific pricing, and invoices with Shopify, Adobe Commerce, or a custom storefront. Business Central exposes a capable web API, and the work is mostly in doing the sync reliably at volume rather than in making the first request succeed.

Which Dynamics product do you integrate with?

Primarily Dynamics 365 Business Central, which is the ERP most Australian mid-market businesses run for eCommerce. Business Central has a well-defined API surface with standard and custom API pages plus OData, which makes it a good candidate for a clean, maintainable integration.

Can Dynamics drive B2B pricing on my store?

Yes. Customer-specific pricing, price groups, and quantity breaks held in Business Central can be surfaced so each trade customer sees their own pricing when they log in. For most B2B businesses this is the single most valuable part of the integration.

How long does a Dynamics integration take?

A focused orders-and-inventory sync is typically a few weeks. Full two-way sync with contract pricing and multi-location stock is a larger project. The scope depends on how customised your Business Central already is. Once that is defined, I can provide an accurate estimate.
