ERPNext Integration

Frappe Helpdesk can stay in sync with ERPNext so that your customer records are never out of date.

Prerequisites

ERPNext must be installed on the same Frappe bench as Helpdesk.

Enabling the Integration

1. Open Helpdesk and go to Settings → General
2. Scroll to the ERPNext Integration
3. Toggle Enable ERPNext Integration on.

Once enabled these buttons will be visible

Customer List View in Helpdesk

Customer List View in ERPNext (desk)

When either of these buttons are clicked, the syncing process begins.

It takes from a few minutes to few hours depending upon the size of your master data.

How is the master data synced?

The bulk sync performs a union merge:

• ERPNext customers not in Helpdesk are added to Helpdesk.
• Helpdesk customers not in ERPNext are added to ERPNext.
• Customers that already exist by name on both sides are linked without creating duplicates. After a successful bulk sync every customer will exist in both systems and will be linked bidirectionally.

Once the syncing is done

1. If a Customer is created in Helpdesk, the same record is created in ERPNext Customer (if installed) automatically.
2. If a Customer is created in ERPNext, the same record is created in Helpdesk's Customer (if installed) automatically.
3. All the User Perms will also be also synced.
4. All the documents which were shared will also be synced together.

Disabling the Integration

Toggle Enable ERPNext Integration off in Settings → General.
Existing records are preserved. No further changes will be mirrored until the integration is re-enabled.
