Introducing the Alumio Route Builder
Now connect, orchestrate, and govern integrations at scale from one visual interface
Order and job state held in the AS/400 appears on a monday.com board, so the people who never open a terminal session can still see exactly where each piece of work actually stands today.
Decades of operational state sit in the AS/400, and it only reaches people through a terminal session. So the planners, coordinators and account managers who need it work from printouts, phone calls and whoever remembers to ask. Meanwhile the system itself is doing its job perfectly well. Connecting IBM AS/400 and monday.com changes who can see it: order and job state appears on a board people already use, with the age of each figure shown against it, so asking somebody else stops being the way that anyone finds out where things currently stand.
DATA THAT FLOWS BETWEEN THEM
Order status
Job state
Stock positions
Customer records
Board items
Update timestamps
Order and job state from the AS/400 appears on a monday.com board, so the people planning around it stop depending on somebody else running a screen on their behalf.
Because the board carries current state, coordination happens against what the AS/400 holds rather than against the last phone call anyone remembers making about it.
Each monday.com item shows when it was last read from the AS/400, so nobody has to guess whether they are looking at this morning's position or last Thursday's.
Nothing is written back, so the AS/400 remains the record while the board is a view of it, and the integration adds no new place for the same fact to be edited.
Alumio brings the AS/400 order and job state you nominate onto a monday.com board on a set schedule, so a coordinator sees progress across all of it without opening a session or asking the one team that actually can.
Stock positions from the AS/400 appear against the monday.com items that depend on them, so somebody promising a delivery date is doing it against a real figure rather than an assumption about what the warehouse is holding.
A shift or team handover happens from the monday.com board rather than from a printed run, so the incoming group starts from the same AS/400 state the outgoing one finished on and nothing at all depends on memory.
Alumio sits between sales channels and fulfillment systems as a governed integration backbone. Orders are routed, transformed, and validated, while status updates return to every channel.
Authenticate your systems using Alumio's pre-built connectors. Choose from 200+ connector packages in the marketplace, plus unlimited custom integrations.
Define how data fields map between systems in a visual interface. Adjust formats, enrich records, and apply business logic, no custom code required.
Configure flows to run in real time on events, on a schedule, or both. Reduce manual data entry and let Alumio handle movement and transformation between systems.

Once your first integration is live, adding your ERP, PIM, WMS, or CRM connects to the same hub. Existing flows keep running. No rebuilding from scratch.
A reporting tool is the usual next step. Once AS/400 state is reaching a monday.com board, the same information answers questions a spreadsheet has been answering badly for years. Alumio holds both connections, so the board shows the work and the reporting layer shows the trend, drawn from one source rather than two extracts.
Reading outward is the whole job here, on a schedule you set. Alumio brings the order and job state you nominate out of the AS/400 and onto the monday.com board, with the time of the last update shown against each item. Nothing is written back, which is deliberate: the record stays where it is and the board is a view of it.
No, this is configured rather than coded. Alumio's published connectivity includes direct database connections for systems without an API surface, which is the route for a platform of this age, and mapping what comes out onto monday.com items is interface work. Field conventions on a system this old rarely match a board, so the Code Transformer handles reshaping that configuration cannot.
On a board they already use, with the age of the figure shown. The AS/400 holds order and job state that has only ever been reachable through a terminal session, so the people planning around it work from printouts and phone calls. Putting that state on a monday.com item, with the time it was last read, replaces the asking. The board is a view, not a second record.
A board showing state the AS/400 has already moved past is the risk, so every item carries when it was last read. Alumio watches each collection live and records what it returned, so a read that does not complete alerts immediately and retries automatically where configured. The reason is logged, and the item keeps its previous value and timestamp, so nothing stale quietly passes as current.
