ERP integration
When an ERP is integrated with PIM, items in the ERP are
automatically created in PIM as entities.
Use the xpaths in the ItemMaster BOD that is sent from the ERP to set up data mappings. This
table shows the types of mappings that you can set up and the parameters you can use:
| Mapping type | Description | Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Entity type | Determines the entity type that is assigned to items replicated from the ERP. | One or more xpaths from the ItemMaster BOD. You can use operators to indicate that the xpath should or should not equal a value. |
| Key identifier | Determines the ID of the entity that is created during replication. | One xpath |
| Attribute | Associates a PIM attribute with a characteristic that is defined in the ERP, such as net weight. | One xpath |
