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.
Makini uses standard HTTP status codes and structured error responses. Error responses include an error code (e.g., `AUTHENTICATION_FAILED`, `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`), error type for categorization, a human-readable error message, and a unique request ID for support inquiries. Common status codes include 400 for invalid requests, 401 for authentication failures, 403 for permission issues, 429 for rate limiting, 500 for server errors, and 503 for service unavailability. Use the error code for programmatic error handling rather than parsing error messages. The request ID helps our support team quickly identify and investigate specific issues.
Write operation limitations vary by system. Common limitations include: field-level restrictions (some fields may be read-only), business rule validation (orders may require certain fields or valid vendor codes), permission requirements (the connected account needs specific permissions), timing restrictions (some systems prevent modifications after certain workflow states), and rate limits on write operations. Custom fields in target systems may not be writable through standard APIs. Some systems have transactional requirements—for example, purchase order line items must be created in the same transaction as the order header. During implementation, we identify write operation limitations for your specific use cases and design workflows that work within those constraints.
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.
