Certification ERP integration: connecting scheduling to the systems you run

Certification ERP integration for scheduling: what data flows each way, and how APIs, webhooks and calendar sync keep one version of the truth.

By Aman Hemchand, Head of AI TransformationIntegrationPlanning practice2 min readIn English

Key takeaways

  1. Without integration, planners re-key data and versions drift.
  2. Audits and auditors flow in; allocations and dates flow back.
  3. The ERP stays the system of record.
Short answer

Certification ERP integration connects the scheduling engine to the system that holds clients, programmes and auditors, so audits flow in and allocations flow back without re-keying. It uses an API and webhooks, with calendar sync for auditors, and keeps the ERP as the system of record.

How the connection works

01

REST API

Structured data exchange on demand.

02

Webhooks

Instant updates when something changes.

03

Ready-made connectors

ScheduleAI has a pre-built Intact integration.

04

Calendar sync

Bookings land in auditors' Outlook calendars.

Signs integration is missing

  • ✓Planners copy audit lists from the ERP into a spreadsheet.
  • ✓Confirmed dates are typed back by hand.
  • ✓Auditors receive bookings by email, not in their calendar.
  • ✓Reports disagree depending on which system they come from.

See the three types of audit scheduling software for how ERPs and allocation engines fit together.

ScheduleAI is the audit scheduling software certification bodies use to plan ISO programmes from stage 1 to recertification.

Questions

Why integrate scheduling with the certification ERP?

To avoid re-keying, keep one version of the truth and let allocations flow back automatically.

Does ScheduleAI replace the ERP?

No. The ERP stays the system of record; ScheduleAI decides allocations and writes them back.

Which integrations are available?

A REST API and webhooks, a pre-built Intact integration and Outlook calendar sync, with Google Calendar coming.

Can other ERPs be connected?

Yes, through the API.
