Introducing the Alumio Route Builder
Now connect, orchestrate, and govern integrations at scale from one visual interface
Feed live IFS data into Microsoft Power BI automatically, so dashboards reflect current orders, stock, and financials from the ERP instead of numbers someone exported into a spreadsheet last night.
Teams reporting on IFS through Microsoft Power BI often rebuild their data by hand: someone exports from IFS, reshapes it in a spreadsheet, and loads it before every review. Without a live link, Power BI shows figures that were already stale when the meeting started, analysts lose hours to preparation, and decisions rest on last night's snapshot rather than today's position. Connecting IFS and Microsoft Power BI through Alumio pushes ERP data into the reporting layer on a schedule or as it changes, so dashboards stay current and the business decides on numbers it can trust.
DATA THAT FLOWS BETWEEN THEM
Sales orders
Inventory levels
Financial transactions
Purchase orders
Work orders
IFS data flows into Power BI as it changes, so reports reflect the current order book and stock position rather than an overnight export that was already out of date at breakfast.
Alumio delivers IFS data to Power BI in a consistent shape automatically, so analysts interpret numbers rather than exporting, cleaning, and reloading them before each review.
Power BI draws from IFS through a single governed feed, so finance, operations, and management all report from the same source instead of arguing over whose spreadsheet is right.
As new IFS objects are needed in reports, Alumio adds them to the Power BI feed through configuration, so richer dashboards need no extra manual export to maintain.
When orders, stock, or work orders change in IFS, Alumio updates the dataset behind Power BI within the chosen window, so dashboards show the live position and managers act on the current backlog, not last night's figure.
When financial transactions post in IFS, Alumio feeds them into Power BI on schedule, so finance builds margin and cash reports on current ERP data without pulling a manual export and reshaping it in a spreadsheet first.
When purchase orders and stock levels move in IFS, Alumio streams the changes into Power BI, so buyers judge supplier performance and stock cover on live figures rather than a static extract already days behind.
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.
Yes, and this is usually the point of it: once IFS feeds Power BI, teams add CRM or webshop data so a single dashboard covers demand as well as production. Alumio delivers those sources into the same reporting layer through one hub, so a new dataset joins the existing IFS feed rather than arriving as another disconnected extract nobody trusts.
Yes. Alumio pushes IFS records into the dataset behind Power BI on the schedule you choose, or as they change for the objects that need it. Each feed is configured separately, so an operations dashboard tracking work orders can refresh through the day while a financial report built from the same IFS data runs on its own monthly cycle.
No. The version this replaces is hand-written SQL extracts and Power Query steps that break whenever IFS is upgraded or a field is renamed. Alumio holds the IFS field selection and shaping as configuration, so the Power BI dataset keeps filling after an ERP change and an analyst can add a new measure without waiting on a developer.
Yes. Alumio can push IFS changes into the Power BI dataset as they happen rather than only in a nightly batch, so an operations dashboard reflects the order book and stock within minutes. You set the refresh behavior per report, so high-frequency operational views update in near real time from IFS while heavier historical reports still run on a schedule, matching each dashboard's need rather than forcing everything onto one overnight cycle.
A dashboard quietly showing yesterday's numbers is more dangerous than one that is clearly blank, so Alumio surfaces a failed IFS to Power BI feed rather than letting stale data pass as current. Each refresh is monitored live and logged with what it carried, so you can see where it stopped, such as a dataset the load could not match. Refreshes retry automatically where configured, and any that still fail raise an alert, so no report silently drifts out of date.
