About this Product
The OpenCart Connector for Business Central is a build-to-order integration that ECOSIRE designs, develops, installs and supports on your own Business Central environment. It is not an instant AppSource download — it is a per-tenant AL extension we build to match your OpenCart version, store layout and BC posting setup, then deploy to your tenant.
On the storefront side it talks to the OpenCart REST/admin API (and, where required, a thin OpenCart-side plugin for webhook events). On the ERP side it is a proper AL application: table and page extensions, an integration setup page, event subscribers on Sales document and Item events, and recurring Job Queue entries that run the sync on the cadence you choose. Inbound storefront orders are created or matched as customers and Sales Orders/Invoices in BC; product, category and price data is published outward from BC Items; and inventory levels stay aligned so you stop overselling.
We map the awkward parts honestly: OpenCart tax classes and geo-zone shipping to BC Tax Groups / Tax Areas and shipping items, payment methods to payment terms, and SKUs to BC Item No. or item references. Multi-store OpenCart is first-class — each store maps to its own BC location, dimension and price list.
Every install ships with a dedicated permission set, a sync log with retry and error surfacing, and an idempotent design so reruns never double-post. Optional Dataverse / Power Platform hooks let you trigger flows or surface sync health in a Power BI dashboard. You get the source AL, a runbook, and a support window. Delivery is typically one working week depending on field-mapping and customization scope.

Frequently Asked Questions about OpenCart Connector for Business Central
How long until the connector is live on my environment?
Typical delivery is one working week from the time we confirm your field mappings and get API access to OpenCart and your BC sandbox. Simple single-store setups land toward the shorter end; multi-store catalogs with custom tax, shipping or payment mapping take longer. We build against a sandbox first, validate on a pilot store, then promote to production.
Is this an AppSource app I download and install myself?
No. This is build-to-order. ECOSIRE develops it as a per-tenant AL extension tailored to your OpenCart version and BC posting setup, and we install it on your environment for you. There is no public AppSource listing or self-serve download for this product.
What does ongoing support and updates cover?
Every build includes a defined support window for bug fixes and configuration help. Because you receive the source AL, you or your BC partner can also maintain it. We offer renewable support for BC version upgrades (the regular Microsoft release waves), OpenCart upgrades, and new mapping or feature requests as scoped change requests.
How does it avoid duplicate orders or double-posting inventory?
The sync engine is idempotent. It uses stable external keys and change detection (sha-based comparison) so re-running a sync, or recovering after an error, matches existing records instead of creating new ones. The sync log shows per-record status so any skipped or failed record is visible and retryable.
Can it handle multiple OpenCart stores and multiple BC locations?
Yes. Multi-store is first-class. Each OpenCart store maps to its own BC location, dimension and price list, so stock, pricing and order routing stay correct per store. We agree the store-to-location mapping in the field-mapping workbook during the build.
What access do you need from us to build it?
OpenCart REST/admin API credentials (and admin access if a storefront-side plugin is needed), plus a Business Central sandbox with appropriate permissions to install a per-tenant extension. We confirm tax, shipping, payment and SKU mapping rules with your team before development starts.
