Makini's purchase order data model includes comprehensive field coverage across all major ERP systems. Standard fields include order number, line items, vendor information, quantities, unit prices, dates (order date, required date, delivery date), status, currency, ship-to and bill-to addresses, payment terms, and custom fields. Each line item includes product/material codes, descriptions, quantities, unit of measure, pricing, and delivery information. The specific fields available depend on the source system's capabilities. You can view the complete field mapping for any connected system in the Makini dashboard, and custom fields can be added as needed for your specific requirements.
Yes, customers can connect as many systems as needed. Each connection is independent with its own API token, allowing you to manage multiple ERP systems, CMMS platforms, or other integrations for a single customer. This is common in organizations with multiple subsidiaries, regional systems, or during migration periods when legacy and new systems run in parallel. Each connection consumes connection credits based on the system type and deployment model. There's no technical limit on the number of connections per customer. For customers using multiple instances of the same system (like regional SAP instances), each instance requires a separate connection with its own credentials and token.
Makini maintains API stability and provides advance notice of breaking changes. The current API version is v1. When we introduce breaking changes, we release a new API version while maintaining the previous version for a transition period (typically 12 months minimum). Non-breaking changes (like adding new fields or endpoints) are introduced into the current version without requiring updates. We announce upcoming version changes through multiple channels: email notifications, dashboard announcements, and release notes. API responses include version information in headers. We recommend specifying the API version explicitly in your requests to ensure consistent behavior. During version transitions, we provide migration guides and support for updating integrations.
Yes, through Makini Flows, which includes connectors for popular databases including Snowflake, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and others. This enables workflows that synchronize data between industrial systems and your data warehouse or analytics platforms. For example, you can sync purchase orders from SAP to Snowflake for analytics, or use database queries to drive integration logic. Database integrations use the same workflow builder as other integrations, making it easy to combine industrial system data with database operations. For direct database-to-database syncing, we can help design optimized workflows. Database connections are treated as custom integrations and may require additional workflow development.
