Business value
The key feature of the current connector is to provide a plug and play medium to bring retailer’s data from OrderCloud into Fabric. While the existing tables from OrderCloud and their respective mapping within the industry data model can work for a good number of our customers, we do understand that there will also be a need to bring additional tables or custom tables from the existing database (in OrderCloud) and map it to standard tables within the industry data model within Fabric for addressing business requirements. An easier, supportive handling of new table addition and respective mapping at this stage can reduce the manual work involved to a significant extent.
With this feature, we aim to minimize manual work for retailers and facilitate easy and rapid adoption, enabling them to bring their data into Fabric quickly.
Feature details
The feature will include a configurable approach toward adding new tables to the existing Sitecore OrderCloud connector within the retail data model. Retail data managers will be able to initiate the addition of tables through user-friendly forms and will get automated recommendations on the possible table mappings, which they can then choose and extend for their respective requirements, as required.
