You can improve your sales team's visibility into the needs of both your customers and your business by integrating your ERP and CRM systems. When your sales team can access ERP data whenever they need, they can use high-quality data like customer addresses and customer financial history as the basis for dynamic marketing lists in Dynamics CRM. However, accessing the complete customer history in CRM often requires manually copying data from your other data sources like ERP — and Google spreadsheets. When you need to rekey data across multiple sources, keeping your data synchronized and up to date becomes another challenge.
CData SSIS Components for Dynamics CRM are off-the-shelf tools that address both aspects of integrating ERP into CRM with point-and-click simplicity: Out of the box, you can automate many of the key CRM and ERP integrations, such as viewing your customer financial history in CRM. As you drag and drop the source and destination components onto a Data Flow in SSIS, the components handle the necessary communication with each data source's API.
By accessing NetSuite and Dynamics CRM through APIs, you can rely on accurate and current data: The APIs preserve business logic and reflect any changes to the data. After installing the CData SSIS Components for Dynamics CRM and NetSuite, as well as SQL Server Data Tools, you can transfer sales orders from NetSuite into CRM in 10 steps.
