Why teams connect Channelengine and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Keep the storefront in step with the back office: Channelengine and Dynamics 365 Business Central share products, inventory, and orders in real time, in both directions.

Channelengine runs the storefront and takes the orders; Dynamics 365 Business Central owns the item master, the stock on hand, and the finance behind every transaction. The two overlap wherever the same products, customers, and sales matter to both — and when re-keying or an overnight batch is what connects them, the store oversells items it can't ship, quotes prices finance never set, or leaves buyers waiting on status that already changed.

Stacksync syncs Backorders, Order documents, Orders, Products (product content) in Channelengine with Customers, Vendors, Items, Sales Orders in Dynamics 365 Business Central field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — stock and pricing from Dynamics 365 Business Central, order and customer detail from Channelengine — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Load Orders and Returns into Postgres or a warehouse for marketplace sales, fulfillment, and margin reporting without manual CSV exports.
  • 02 Push product content from a PIM, ERP, or database into ChannelEngine's Products endpoint so listings stay current across every connected marketplace.
  • 03 Mirror items and inventory levels into external channels so stock data stays current outside the ERP.
  • 04 Replicate GL entries and dimensions into a SQL database for financial reporting without giving analysts ERP logins.

Common sync patterns

Where Dynamics 365 Business Central is the inventory system of record: stock stays accurate

Available quantities from Dynamics 365 Business Central publish to Channelengine, so the store shows what can actually ship and stops overselling.

New orders reach the back office

An order captured in Channelengine creates the matching record in Dynamics 365 Business Central with customer, line items, and totals, so fulfillment and invoicing start without re-entry.

One product catalog

Where both systems keep item records, SKUs, descriptions, and attributes stay aligned so the store and the back office describe the same product.

What you can sync between Channelengine and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Channelengine objects Dynamics 365 Business Central objects How this pairing syncs
Products (product content) Catalog records created and updated via POST /v2/products and deactivated via DELETE; use a parent/child variant model where the parent is a non-purchasable blueprint. Written into ChannelEngine from a PIM, ERP, or database. Dimensions Analytical tags (department, project) that syncs preserve for reporting integrity. Products (product content) is specific to Channelengine and Dimensions to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Offers (price and stock) Price and stock updates via PUT /v2/offer/stock and the offers endpoints; separate from product content so fast-changing stock can be pushed often, and supports bulk updates across stock locations. Payments Customer and vendor payment records reconciled against invoices. Offers (price and stock) is specific to Channelengine and Payments to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Shipments Fulfillment records; write with POST /v2/shipments to mark an order shipped with tracking, read with GET /v2/shipments. Pushed back from a warehouse or ERP so marketplaces update the buyer. Customers Core master data synced with CRMs so sales and finance share one customer list. Shipments is specific to Channelengine and Customers to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Returns Marketplace- and merchant-initiated returns; read via GET /v2/returns and created with POST /v2/returns. Synced two-way so customer-service and finance systems reconcile with the ERP. Vendors Supplier master data synced with procurement and AP automation tools. Returns is specific to Channelengine and Vendors to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Cancellations Order cancellations; create with POST /v2/cancellations and read with GET /v2/cancellations. Written when stock is unavailable and read back for reconciliation. Items Product and inventory records aligned with e-commerce and warehouse systems. Cancellations is specific to Channelengine and Items to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Backorders Records marking part of an order as temporarily out of stock; create with POST /v2/backorders and read with GET /v2/backorders by merchant reference or since a date. Sales Orders Order headers and lines created from external channels and read back for fulfillment status. Backorders is specific to Channelengine and Sales Orders to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Channelengine and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Channelengine Dynamics 365 Business Central Sub-second propagation

DetectionChannelengine notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire on order creation and on return and shipment/cancellation changes.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Dynamics 365 Business Central through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Dynamics 365 Business Central Channelengine Sub-second propagation

DetectionDynamics 365 Business Central notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. API webhooks (change notifications on subscribed entities) plus polling on lastModifiedDateTime.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Channelengine through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Channelengine: Rate limits are per endpoint and returned in headers: x-rate-limit-limit (interval length in minutes), x-rate-limit-remaining, and retry-after (seconds to wait); e.g. POST /v2/supportorder allows 3 calls per minute.

How the Channelengine and Dynamics 365 Business Central connectors work

Channelengine

Integration surface
REST API (Merchant API v2); per-tenant base URL https://{tenant}.channelengine.net/api
Authentication
API key passed as the 'apikey' parameter; ChannelEngine recommends sending it in a request header rather than the URL because some webservers log full URLs
Change detection
Webhooks fire on order creation and on return and shipment/cancellation changes; product content and offers use change-tracking endpoints (GET /v2/products/data and /v2/products/offers) with an acknowledge pattern that returns only changed records, plus polling GET /v2/orders/new
