Released products from Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations arrive in Pimcore ready to enrich, so product teams build content on live ERP item data instead of a spreadsheet exported last month.
Manufacturers running Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations as their item master while enriching in Pimcore usually start the PIM from an export. Without a live link, products released in F&O reach Pimcore only when someone prepares a file, so enrichment lags production, item numbers and units drift apart, and channels receive content built on what the ERP has since changed. Connecting Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations and Pimcore through Alumio keeps released products and their commercial data flowing into the PIM, so enrichment always starts from what the ERP actually holds.

A product released in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations appears in Pimcore immediately, so content work begins while the item is still in production rather than after an export.
Pimcore builds on F&O item numbers, dimensions, and units, so the identifiers finance and production use are the ones channels receive, with no second numbering to reconcile.
Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations keeps pricing and item status while Pimcore owns descriptions and media, so neither system overwrites data the other is responsible for.
Because F&O changes reach Pimcore automatically, the PIM stops distributing items the ERP has discontinued or renamed since the last manual export was prepared.
When an item is released in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Alumio creates it in Pimcore with its category, unit, and dimensions, so the product team starts enriching straight away rather than awaiting a file.
When F&O holds product dimensions such as size, color, and configuration, Alumio builds the matching structure in Pimcore, so enrichment happens once and inherits across variants instead of being repeated for each one.
When pricing or lifecycle status changes in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, Alumio updates the product in Pimcore, so the PIM stops publishing a discontinued item and every channel sees current commercial data.
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. Once F&O feeds Pimcore, the enriched result normally goes onward to a storefront, a marketplace, or a print channel. Alumio publishes to those from the same hub and reuses the Pimcore arrangement already built, so content enriched against ERP items reaches each destination without a separate export being maintained per channel.
Yes. Alumio creates and updates products in Pimcore from Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations released items as they change, carrying dimensions, units, and categories across. You choose what populates which part of the Pimcore product, so the PIM receives structured data ready for enrichment rather than a flat list someone reorganizes by hand.
None of it needs X++ work. F&O integrations are usually built with recurring data-entity jobs and extensions that a specialist maintains through each platform update. How a released product becomes a Pimcore product lives in configuration, so a new dimension is added in the interface. Where a structure cannot be expressed that way, custom logic can build it before it reaches the PIM.
Alumio can create one Pimcore product per item while carrying the legal entities it is released to, so enrichment happens once and is not duplicated per company. You configure which entity-specific values, such as pricing or item status, travel alongside the shared content, so something sold by three F&O legal entities keeps one enriched version in Pimcore with the commercial differences preserved.
A released product that arrives in Pimcore without its dimensions cannot be enriched properly, so Alumio reports what is incomplete rather than leaving something half-built in the PIM. Each message is logged live with the item, what it carried, and the exact error, such as a dimension value Pimcore could not place. Retries run automatically where configured, and anything unresolved raises an alert naming the item, so nothing is quietly left unenriched.
