About this Product
Selling on Flipkart alongside Business Central usually means two systems that never agree. Orders arrive in the Flipkart seller panel and get keyed into Business Central by hand, so sales orders lag behind approval and pack-by dates. Stock moves in Business Central when a warehouse shipment posts, but the Flipkart listing keeps advertising the old quantity, and the oversell shows up as a cancellation penalty. Settlement reports arrive as files full of commission, collection fee, fixed fee, shipping fee and tax-on-fee lines that nobody reconciles line by line, so the bank receipt never matches the invoice value and the difference quietly parks in a suspense account. Business Central out of the box has no marketplace concept at all: there is no Flipkart order, no listing entity, no place to hold a marketplace order ID next to a sales order, and no way to explain a payout that is smaller than the invoices it settles.
ECOSIRE builds a Flipkart Marketplace Connector as a Business Central AL extension — delivered as a per-tenant extension for a single SaaS environment, or packaged for AppSource-style distribution and on-premises deployment when your estate needs it. The design keeps base application objects untouched: new tables hold marketplace credentials, channel configuration, staged Flipkart orders, listing links and settlement lines; table and page extensions add the Flipkart fields you actually look at (marketplace order ID, fulfilment model, SKU mapping, listing state) onto Sales Order, Item, Sales Shipment and Customer Ledger Entry; and codeunits carry the integration logic behind clean interfaces so the transport layer can be swapped without touching business rules.
Technically, an HTTP client codeunit handles Flipkart Seller API authentication and token refresh, with typed JSON handling through JsonObject and JsonToken rather than string parsing. Inbound work runs on Job Queue Entries at the cadence your volume needs — orders and cancellations on a short interval, listings and settlements on a longer one — and each run writes to a staging table first, so a bad payload is quarantined for review instead of aborting a batch. Documents are created through standard posting routines, never direct table inserts, so your posting groups, dimensions, tax setup and number series behave exactly as they do for any other sales order. Event subscribers on release, warehouse shipment and posting events push shipment confirmations, tracking numbers and carrier details back to Flipkart. Item availability changes trigger a debounced stock and price push, calculated from the availability basis you choose (inventory, projected available, or a reservation-adjusted quantity per location).
Settlement files and payout responses are parsed into settlement lines, matched to invoices, and turned into applied cash receipt journal lines plus separate expense lines for each fee type, so the bank reconciliation clears and fee analysis lives in real G/L accounts instead of a spreadsheet. A dedicated permission set, an integration log with request/response correlation IDs, and retry with exponential backoff round out the operational surface. Where you want the data in Power BI or a Power Automate flow, we expose it through API pages (REST API v2.0 / OData v4) for Dataverse and Power Platform connectivity, and we target the Business Central release wave you are actually running.
Because this is build-to-order, nothing here is a shrink-wrapped download. You request a quotation, we run a scoping call, and we write a specification against your Business Central version and release wave, your fulfilment model (Flipkart-fulfilled versus self-ship), your SKU and category structure, your tax setup, and which fee lines post where. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. We build on a sandbox environment, hand you the extension for user acceptance testing against your own Flipkart seller account, then install into production with a documented rollback. You receive the AL source code for your version in a git repository you own — no black box, no lock-in — along with technical documentation, a user guide, a training session for the operations team, and a post-go-live support window while the first real settlement cycle runs through the system.

Who this is for
Marketplace operations manager
Runs the daily Flipkart order desk and is judged on dispatch SLA and cancellation rate. Needs Flipkart orders to appear in Business Central as releasable sales orders within minutes, with the correct pack-by date and marketplace status visible on the document, so nobody re-keys orders or misses a ready-to-dispatch window.
Finance controller or accountant
Owns the bank reconciliation and the gross-to-net margin view. Needs every Flipkart payout broken into invoice settlements and individual fee postings against real G/L accounts, so the bank receipt clears and commission and logistics costs are visible per channel rather than buried in one net line.
Inventory and supply-chain lead
Manages shared stock across retail, D2C and Flipkart. Needs a single availability calculation pushed to the listing on a controlled cadence with a safety buffer, so a warehouse shipment posted in Business Central cannot leave an oversold quantity live on the marketplace.
IT manager or Business Central partner
Responsible for environment health and future upgrades. Needs an extension that touches no base objects, uses a clean object ID range, logs every API call with a correlation ID, and arrives with source code so the integration can be maintained and upgraded without depending on a single vendor.
How Flipkart Marketplace Connector Compares
| Criterion | ECOSIRE | Custom Build | Competitor | Dynamics 365 Business Central Native |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fit to your Flipkart setup | Built against your fulfilment model, SKU structure, tax setup and G/L accounts from a written specification | Fits perfectly if the spec is right, but you write the spec and carry the discovery risk yourself | Fits the vendor's assumed setup; anything else needs configuration workarounds or a change request | No Flipkart concept exists — orders and settlements are re-keyed by hand |
| Source code ownership | Full AL source in a git repository you own, handed over at go-live | You own it outright, and you also own every future line of it | Compiled app only; the internals are closed and the roadmap is the vendor's | Not applicable — nothing to own |
| Time to a working system | Typically one working week from confirmed scope, sandbox first, then production | Months, depending on hiring an AL developer with marketplace experience | Fast to install, then weeks of configuration and gap-closing before it matches your process | Immediate, because the manual process starts on day one and never ends |
| Settlement and fee reconciliation | Payouts matched to invoices with each fee type posted to its own G/L account and unmatched differences reported | Achievable, but this is the part most in-house builds postpone and never finish | Often imports a net payout total, leaving fee analysis to a spreadsheet | Manual journal entry per payout with the difference parked in suspense |
| Upgrade safety across release waves | No base-object changes, dedicated object ID range, upgrade checklist included in handover | Depends entirely on the developer's discipline; base-object edits are a common shortcut | Usually upgrade-safe, but you wait for the vendor's release before you can move | Nothing to break, because nothing is automated |
| Ongoing cost shape | One-time build with an optional support and maintenance agreement | Salary or contractor cost that continues for as long as the integration lives | Recurring per-user or per-order subscription that scales with your volume | No licence cost, paid instead in operations headcount and cancellation penalties |
| Extensibility by your own team | Published integration events and table-driven mapping so you extend without forking | Unlimited, provided the original developer left documentation behind | Limited to the vendor's supported extension points, if any exist | Would require building the connector from scratch |
| Operational visibility when something fails | Integration log with correlation IDs, retry counts, a quarantine queue and optional telemetry | Whatever logging was budgeted for, which is usually the first thing cut | A vendor error list that often needs a support ticket to interpret | A missed order noticed when the marketplace penalty arrives |
Frequently Asked Questions about Flipkart Marketplace Connector
Is this an app I can download and install from Microsoft AppSource today?
No. This is a build-to-order extension. ECOSIRE builds it for your Business Central environment after you request a quotation and we agree the scope. There is no instant download and no trial link, because the connector is compiled against your version, your fulfilment model and your chart of accounts. If you also want it published to AppSource under your own publisher account, we can scope that as a separate stream.
How long does delivery take?
Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. The clock starts when the specification is signed off, not when you first enquire. Scoping is a call of roughly half an hour plus a short written questionnaire. Where the scope is unusually large — several Flipkart seller accounts, multiple companies, or a heavily customised sales posting flow — we tell you before you commit rather than discovering it mid-build.
What support and updates do I get after go-live?
Every build includes a post-go-live support window covering defect fixes and configuration adjustments through the first full settlement cycle. Beyond that we offer an optional support and maintenance agreement covering Flipkart API changes, Business Central release-wave compatibility, and enhancement work. Because you receive the AL source in your own git repository, you are never locked in — your own team or another partner can maintain it.
Does it work on Business Central SaaS as well as on-premises?
Yes. The extension is written as a standard AL app with no base-object modifications, so it deploys as a per-tenant extension on Business Central online and as an installed app on-premises. Outbound HTTP calls run through the standard AL HTTP client, which works in both environments. We confirm your exact version and release wave during scoping and build against it.
How does it avoid overselling on Flipkart?
Stock synchronisation runs from a configurable availability basis — on-hand inventory, projected available quantity, or a reservation-adjusted figure — filtered to the locations you fulfil marketplace orders from, with an optional safety buffer per item or category. Pushes are debounced so a burst of postings produces one update rather than dozens, and every push is logged with the quantity sent and the marketplace response.
How are Flipkart fees and payouts posted?
Settlement data is parsed into settlement lines and matched to the invoices it pays. The connector then creates applied cash receipt journal lines for the invoice portion and separate expense lines for each fee type — commission, collection fee, fixed fee, shipping, tax on fees, adjustments — posted to the G/L accounts you nominate during scoping. Anything that does not match is reported rather than silently absorbed, so nothing lands in a suspense account unexplained.
Can we extend it ourselves later?
Yes. Integration logic sits in codeunits behind interfaces, mapping is table-driven rather than hard-coded, and we publish integration events at the meaningful points — before order creation, after status mapping, before a stock push, after a settlement line is posted. Your developers can subscribe to those events from a separate extension without forking our code, and the handover session walks your team through exactly where those hooks are.
