ERP INTEGRATION

ERP integration that doesn’t hold your AP automation back

AP automation projects don’t fail because the software doesn’t work. They fail because the integration does. Timeline slippage. Upgrade breakage. Vendor finger-pointing. SoftCo connects your AP automation to the ERPs you already run, through a single, governed integration layer configured to your environment.

THE INTEGRATION PROBLEM

Integration breaks most AP automation projects. Not ours.

Most AP automation software treats ERP integration as a project-level detail. It's not. It's where timelines slip, upgrades cause rework, and vendor dependencies create risk. SoftCo treats integration as a first-class engineering problem.

  • Timeline slippage

    Vendors quote weeks. Discovery uncovers custom fields, version mismatches, and IT constraints nobody scoped. The integration becomes the longest phase of the project. Every week of delay is another week the AP team processes invoices manually.

  • Upgrade breakage

    Custom-coded connectors are built for one ERP version. When Oracle, JDE, SAP or any ERP releases an update, the integration fails. The rebuild takes months and the cost comes out of a budget meant for process improvement, not maintenance.

  • Security rejection

    IT reviews the integration approach mid-project and rejects it. No third-party API access to production. No direct database connections. A requirement that should have been validated on day one stalls the entire deployment.

  • Vendor finger-pointing

    The AP vendor blames the ERP. The ERP partner blames the AP vendor. Your IT team is stuck in the middle troubleshooting an integration neither vendor will take responsibility for. Two contracts, two support queues, zero accountability.

HOW WE CONNECT

One integration layer. Three connectivity methods.

SoftCo doesn't hand you a menu and ask you to choose. We assess your ERP version, your security posture, and your IT capacity. Then we recommend the connectivity method that fits. All three run through a single integration layer. All three are owned and managed by SoftCo.

Certified connectors for standard environments

Certified connectors for major ERP platforms. Configured to your field mappings and deployed by SoftCo. Real-time bi-directional sync with no custom code. Engineered for 10-day deployment on standard ERP versions with standard field mappings. For organisations with limited IT capacity who need speed and upgrade resilience without a lengthy integration project.

Secure file transfer for legacy and restricted environments

Missing PO references. Partial line data. Rounding discrepancies. FX variances. Most matching engines stall here. SoftCo's doesn't. Per-supplier, per-organisation ML models weigh every available data point to find the right match. You set the confidence threshold. Above it, invoices flow through untouched. Below it, they surface with a clear reason why.

REST APIs for teams with existing integration architecture

Documented REST APIs for enterprises already running Workato, Mulesoft, or another iPaaS platform. Your IT team builds and maintains the SoftCo integration in your existing tools. Full control over field mappings, transformation logic, and orchestration. For heavily customised ERPs or multi-system environments where a standard connector doesn't fit.

WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

Three things that separate this from every other ERP connector

This is not about perfect data. It’s about proving fit in the conditions that actually matter.

  • Engineered for fit,fast because of it

    Speed comes from removing variables. Pre-built connectors, configured mappings, and a scoped start, not open-ended discovery. 10-day deployment for certified connectors, engineered, not promised.

  • Built to survive yournext ERP upgrade

    Most integrations break on upgrade. SoftCo’s iPaaS layer maintains compatibility across ERP versions. One deployment, built for long-term stability.

  • Deep expertise,tailored to your needs.

    Others will leave you stranded. SoftCo has deep understanding of the ERP landscape and your business needs. Pre-configured mappings, certified connectors, and teams who know your ERP in detail.

HOW DATA MOVES

Four data transfers. One governed layer. Full visibility.

Integration is only useful if the right data moves in the right direction at the right time. SoftCo’s integration layer manages four data transfers between your ERP and SoftCo AP automation.

Diagram of four data transfers between an ERP and SoftCo AP automation through the SoftCo integration layer. Master data and transactions flow from the ERP to SoftCo. Approved invoices flow from SoftCo to the ERP. Posting confirmation flows back from the ERP to SoftCo.
  1. Master data

    ERP to SoftCo, scheduled. Suppliers, GL codes, cost centres, payment terms, currencies.

  2. Transactions

    ERP to SoftCo, scheduled. Purchase orders and goods receipts, for three-way matching.

  3. Invoices

    SoftCo to ERP, after approval. Matched, coded and approved invoices, ready to post.

  4. Confirmation

    ERP to SoftCo, after the ERP has processed. Posting confirmation, payment status.

When an invoice fails to post, it surfaces in the ERP Exceptions queue inside SoftCo for review and resubmission. Your finance team sees the failure in SoftCo, where it can be fixed.

WHAT CHANGES

Integration is the means. These are the results.

  • Automated invoice posting

    Approved invoices post to your ERP automatically. No manual re-keying. Your AP team processes invoices, not spreadsheets.

  • Master data that stays current

    Supplier records, GL codes, cost centres, and payment terms sync from your ERP on a schedule. Your AP team works with current data, not a stale extract.

  • Three-way matching with your POs

    Purchase orders and goods receipt notes flow from your ERP into SoftCo for automated three-way matching. Discrepancies are flagged before approval, not after posting.

  • Exception visibility

    When something fails, you see it. The ERP Exceptions queue surfaces posting errors so they can be reviewed and resubmitted. No silent failures.

  • Upgrade resilience

    SoftCo’s integration layer is built to maintain connector compatibility across ERP version updates. Your configuration carries forward. Major platform migrations are reconfigured by SoftCo as part of ongoing support.

  • Reduced IT dependency

    SoftCo owns and operates the integration layer, so ongoing maintenance is not your IT team’s project. No customer middleware licence required.

FAQ

Frequently askedquestions

1.What does the 10-day deployment actually cover?

The 10-day timeline is for certified connector deployment on standard ERP versions. Standard field mappings are pre-configured. The process runs: days 1-2 requirements and ERP access provisioning, days 3-6 configuration and testing, days 7-9 customer validation, day 10 production go-live.

10 days is deployment, not discovery. A scoping assessment happens before kick-off to confirm the environment fits the certified connector pathway. Heavily customised ERPs, complex multi-entity scenarios, or delayed access from the customer's IT team can extend the timeline or route to a different connectivity method.

2.What happens when we upgrade our ERP?

The integration layer is built on enterprise iPaaS architecture designed to maintain connector compatibility across ERP version updates. When Oracle, JDE or any ERP release a new version, the connector is updated at the platform level. Your configuration carries forward.

For major platform migrations, such as moving from Oracle EBS to Oracle Fusion, reconfiguration is required. SoftCo handles this as part of ongoing support.

3.What about security and compliance requirements?

For environments where security policy restricts third-party access to production ERP, file-based integration uses SFTP to a DMZ. No direct ERP database access required. The approach is designed to meet SOX, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS audit control requirements.

For standard environments, certified connectors operate through documented, governed API pathways. For enterprises with existing integration architecture, the API portal provides REST endpoints your team controls.

4.We already use Workato/Mulesoft. Do we need your connector?

No. The API portal provides documented REST APIs for your team to build the SoftCo integration inside your existing iPaaS platform. Full API documentation, sandbox environment, and support included. Your team builds and maintains the integration. SoftCo is responsible for API availability; your team is responsible for the implementation code.

5.How much IT involvement is required from our side?

For certified connectors: your IT team provisions ERP access and reviews the configuration during the validation phase. SoftCo handles deployment. For file transfer: your IT team sets up the SFTP endpoint and agrees on file formats. SoftCo handles orchestration and monitoring. For the API portal: your team builds and maintains the integration, with SoftCo providing documentation and support.

6.Which ERP versions are supported?

SoftCo has documented integration methods for the major ERP platforms, including Oracle EBS, Fusion and NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage and Infor. For any other system that exposes REST, SOAP or file-based interfaces, the generic connector applies. Supported versions are confirmed per ERP during scoping.

7.Can the integration support multiple ERPs at once?

Yes. SoftCo connects to each ERP independently, through the method that fits that environment, all on the same SoftCo integration layer. If you run Oracle Fusion in one region and SAP in another, both connect to the same SoftCo AP platform.

8.What data is synchronised between my ERP and SoftCo?

Four data transfers run between your ERP and SoftCo. Master data comes from your ERP: suppliers, GL codes, cost centres, payment terms and currencies. Transaction data comes from your ERP: purchase orders and goods receipts. Approved invoices go from SoftCo to your ERP for posting. Posting confirmation and payment status come back from your ERP to SoftCo.

9.How are integration errors handled?

When an invoice fails to post, the error surfaces in the SoftCo ERP Exceptions queue, where your team can review it and resubmit once it is resolved.
