Cleo announces enhancements to prebuilt B2B integration solutions for Microsoft Dynamics 365 environments

Cleo, the pioneer and global leader of the world’s Ecosystem Integration software category and provider of the Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC) platform, today announced the latest enhancements to its extensive line-up of prebuilt B2B integration solutions for Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP solutions.

The announcement was made from DynamicsCon Live 2024, in Denver, where Cleo this week is an exhibitor (Table 23).

Cleo recently announced the availability of its out-of-the-box Microsoft Dynamics Supply Chain Management (SCM) and Microsoft Dynamics Business Central (BC) connector solutions in Microsoft AppSource. These solutions provide faster time-to-market for customers looking to integrate B2B supply chain transactions directly into their Microsoft Dynamics ERP; specifically, these solutions accelerate EDI connectivity with trading partners including retailers, wholesalers, and 3PL providers along with D2C channels like Shopify and Amazon.

By utilizing a proven solution that has been vetted by Microsoft, organizations get confidence these Cleo solutions will drive their automation, supply chain expansion, cost savings, and revenue growth initiatives.

On the heels of inclusion in Microsoft AppSource, Cleo is now announcing it has enhanced these solutions with more prebuilt end-to-end integration solutions that are required for seamless supply chain execution by today’s businesses. Specifically, the most critical EDI transaction flows can directly be integrated into the Dynamics environment, right out-of-the-box with no coding required. Organizations can now deploy the following automated business processes with complete drill-down visibility:

 Order Automation (order intake and acknowledgments)

 Invoice Processing (sending, receiving, and advice information)

 Order Change Management (change requests or updates to sales orders)

 Warehouse, Inventory, and Fulfillment Management (shipping, stock transfer, and inventory inquiry /advice)

What’s more, Cleo’s connectors do far more than just EDI. By enhancing these connectors’ ability to build out any integration workflow with Dynamics, Cleo is now specifically enabling out-of-the-box integrations for a myriad of other business processes as well.

These newly available Microsoft Dynamics 365 integration solutions are available to customers through Cleo's flexible service models including self-service, managed services, or a blend of the two – allowing customers complete flexibility on how they deploy and operate their EDI transactions with their Dynamics environments.

“We are excited to exhibit at DynamicsCon Live 2024 because demand for supply chain convergence is upon us -- and companies desperately need help to improve B2B supply chain execution through direct EDI-to-ERP automation," said Mahesh Rajasekharan, President and CEO of Cleo. "With these latest enhancements from Cleo, any company using a Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP can deploy B2B integration flows quickly and effortlessly, ensuring they keep pace with today's rapidly changing global business environment."

Microsoft has worked to accommodate customers' increased expectations of agility in business operations by helping IT leaders act with profound urgency in migrating legacy on-premise ERP technology to the cloud. Most IT leaders also understand that implementing an ERP solution requires a robust B2B integration platform that supports both EDI and API capabilities to deliver successful end-to-end outcomes with their ecosystem. Unfortunately, cloud integration solutions have fallen short – until now.

“The B2B integration market has lacked innovation for the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem for years,” Rajasekharan continued. “Cleo is changing that by providing end-to-end, automated B2B integration solutions that give Dynamics customers the flexibility to deploy on their own or outsource to our dedicated team of B2B integration experts. We look forward to helping organizations streamline their supply chains in an ever-competitive market.”
