Integration Between Microsoft Dynamics AX and Sales Force

Hello Everyone,

 

We have Sales Force services  and Dynamics AX software setup for business. I want to update the Sales Force data with any update made in AX System, for ex. if Accounting Department makes any update in Account..it should update the  Sales Force data too. So its information update from AX to SalesForce.

 

I want to achieve this with Custom In house programming, and not using any Component. How do I achieve this..and what kind of strategy I can use? I know that Sales Force has some webservices that I can call from outside....but how can I call this services when there is some database update in AX system....The database update in AX system should trigger the call and update the Sales force.

 

I would appreciate any hint/support with this.

Thank you in advance.

You will want to use the Force.com Web Services API. Not sure if Dyanmics can make web services callouts, but once the update is made, you'd want to use your SFDC credentials to log (via the API login() call) and then make the appropriate calls to create/update the Accounts.

 

Take a look at the Integration page for examples.

 

Hope that helps,

Sati

Thanks for reply.

 

Actually I know how to call web services from Programming Code like C#...but how do I call this from database (which in my case is Microsoft AX Database) ?

This could be very easily done with GUI based source-target mapping tools in Informatica's Cloud Service. It's a proven solution and it is mean't to solve the data integration issue like the one mentioned here.

 

Let me know if you need any help.
