Course Objective & Scope
When customer context sits in the CRM, orders and invoices live in the ERP, and support history stays locked in the service desk, teams swivel between screens and create conflicting records. This course teaches how to architect dependable enterprise integrations and enrich them with AI-assisted data cleaning and matching.
Participants define system-of-record ownership per field, apply upsert and idempotency patterns that prevent duplicates, and build a realistic CRM–ERP–Service integration workflow.
Who Should Attend?
- CRM, ERP and enterprise application administrators and integration specialists
- Systems analysts, solution architects and data operations teams
- RevOps, sales operations and customer operations technology leads
- Prerequisite: basic understanding of APIs and relational data models
Key Takeaways
- Define system-of-record ownership and a field-level data contract across platforms
- Choose between real-time event sync, bi-directional sync and scheduled reconciliation
- Prevent duplicate records using external IDs, upserts and idempotency keys
- Resolve messy company and contact names with deterministic rules plus LLM-assisted matching
- Handle schema drift, API quotas and partial sync failures with clean reconciliation flows
