Set up the Entria integration
- Open Entria Integration Setup.
- Prepare stores and Ecommerce processing according to the other sections of this guide before enabling the first import.
- Enable Enable Integration when the system is ready.
- Use Stores for store setup, Items to view items with Entria Product enabled, Job Queue Entries for import jobs, and Order Import Failures for failed attempts.
The global switch alone is not enough for import: the store must also be enabled and have Sales Order Integration → Enabled turned on.
Entria Stores
Creating a store
- In Business Central search, find Entria Stores.
- Create a new store and open its Entria Store card.
- Enter Code, a unique store code, and Description, a meaningful name.
- Configure the connection according to the next section before enabling the store.
Configuring the connection
- On the card, select Set Connection Parameters.
- In Entria Base Url, enter the URL of the Entria Store.
- In Secret API Key, enter the key for that store.
- Confirm the entry. The message “Connection Parameters saved successfully” confirms that the values were saved.
- Select Test connection.
- A successful test shows: “Connection successful! Entria backend is reachable and API authentication is working.”
The address and key fields on the card are display fields; changes are made through Set Connection Parameters.
Fields on the store card
For additional default dimensions, use the Dimensions action. On the store list, this action supports multiple selected stores.
Enabling retrieval
- Before activation, check Last Orders Imported At. If blank, retrieval has no starting-date restriction and includes available orders waiting for BC synchronization, beginning with the oldest.
- On the card, enable General → Enabled.
- Enable Sales Order Integration → Enabled.
- Open Entria Integration Setup, either directly through search or via Integration Setup on the store list.
- Enable Enable Integration.
- Open Job Queue Entries and verify that Get Sales Orders from Entria has status Ready or In Process.
When enabling retrieval for a store without a start date, the application asks you to confirm that import should start from the oldest available order. If you want to restrict the period, cancel, enter a date, and enable it again. The job is recurring and checks the stores multiple times while running.
Items
Open the relevant item cards and enable Entria Product. Use Entria Integration Setup → Items to view items with this setting enabled.
The Entria Product field is visible on the item card only when Enable Integration is turned on and at least one Entria Store is enabled.
Failed imports (Order Import Failures)
Open Entria Integration Setup → Order Import Failures or find Entria Order Import Failures through search. The list contains multiple stores; filter Store Code for the required store.
This list shows failures that occur before an Ecommerce document is created. Errors in later processing of an already imported document are checked through Orders, as described in Monitoring and reprocessing. If you’re not sure which list applies, see Troubleshoot the Entria integration.
Retry intervals follow a fixed 10-step schedule that grows monotonically from 5 seconds to 3 minutes. Actual timing depends on execution of the shared job. If retrieving the order list for a store fails, individual retries are postponed for that pass. Newer order data can replenish the available retry attempts while the status is Pending. Error and Skipped require Requeue for Import.
Requeueing the import:
- Read Last Error and correct the cause.
- Select the row and run Requeue for Import.
- Confirm the dialog. Status changes to Pending, retry count returns to 0, and the order becomes eligible for the next job pass.
- If the application reports that the integration, store, or job is inactive, correct the stated reason. Requeueing does not enable them automatically.
- Check Orders. After successful import, the record is removed from the failed-import list.
Requeue for Import schedules retrieval of the current order data. It does not execute the import immediately. If a document for the same store and external number already exists, its content is not overwritten.
Stopping retries for one order: select Skip and confirm the dialog. The order remains on the list with Skipped status. This does not cancel the order; use Requeue for Import to continue. Even if an earlier retry time is still displayed, Skipped prevents the automatic retry.
Entria Job Queues
The order import job queue is created automatically when Enable Integration is turned on and at least one Entria Store has both Enabled and Sales Order Integration → Enabled turned on.
If the job is missing or you want to verify its setup:
- Open Entria Integration Setup.
- Select Configure Entria Order Import Job Queue and confirm the dialog.
- Read the result message and open Job Queue Entries.
- If the job is not ready to run, set it to Ready.
The action creates the job if it is missing and registers it for monitoring. Automatic recreation of a deleted job depends on the background job refresher being enabled — see Job Queue Refresher. If the global integration is disabled, or if no enabled store has order retrieval enabled, the existing job is removed instead of a new one being created.
A message saying that the job has been configured is not a substitute for checking imported orders and the failed-import list.
Further processing of imported documents is handled by the Ecommerce job queues.
