ITScope
Connector
The B2B IT procurement platform ITScope directly in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central – one product, many distributors. The connector imports product master data plus purchase prices and stock per distributor and enriches your BC items through the central hub.
One aggregator, many sources of supply
ITScope bundles the catalogs of numerous IT distributors. The connector imports the product catalog and writes a dedicated source of supply per distributor offer into Business Central – with a uniform data structure via the hub.
Product master data
Import of the full ITScope product catalog: manufacturer, manufacturer part number, EAN/GTIN, tariff number, weights, RRP, and datasheet and image URLs.
Multi-distributor prices
Every distributor offer becomes its own source of supply with purchase price and stock level – so the hub's price engine and best-offer logic automatically pick the cheapest offer.
Distributor whitelist
Each ITScope distributor is mapped to a BC vendor via the central vendor mapping. Only approved distributors are imported – offers from unmapped distributors are skipped.
Item creation via the hub
The imported sources of supply provide MPN, EAN and descriptions to the hub. Via "Create Items from Supplier Data" these become new Business Central items through GTIN/MPN matching.
Cart preparation
From a BC purchase order the connector creates an ITScope cart with the matching distributor offers via REST API. You place the binding order in ITScope itself.
Tracking feedback
Shipment tracking is reported back to the hub and forwarded to the linked sales/marketplace order. The carrier is detected automatically from the tracking number.
Export ZIP plus the ITScope REST API
Master data and prices arrive as an export ZIP, cart preparation runs live via REST API – securely connected through the shared hub infrastructure.
Export ZIP & REST API 2.1
Product, supplierItem and project data arrive as a ZIP (TAB-separated CSV, UTF-8): a full export for the entire catalog and an update export for incremental deltas. Cart preparation uses the REST business API.
Secure credentials
HTTP basic authentication with account ID and API key. The API key is stored as SecretText in the central credential store – no clear text in the database.
Two import definitions
The full import (catalog) and update import (stock) can be activated separately and automated via the hub job queue – with optional email notifications.
