Question
We would like to integrate our Microsoft Dynamics C5 ERP software with our website. Can you help us?
Answer
We would love to help you out with your website and integration with Microsoft Dynamics C5. I actually had to do a little research because I never heard of Microsoft Dynamics C5. From what I learned, it sounds like the product was originally sold as Concorde C5 primarily in Denmark and by Arctos in other parts of the world. I also did some poking around to see if I could find an application programming interface (API) for Microsoft Dynamics C5, but it doesn’t look like there is one. The following article describes your options around this integration:
Given that Microsoft Dynamics C5 does not have an API, I believe our best method would be to use Inventory CSV/XML Uploader using FTP. This uploader is discussed here:

We can also do a “two-way integration” with Microsoft Dynamics C5, but this requires some help from your side. We need to speak with someone who understands how to import order and customer information into Microsoft Dynamics C5. The following article describes what’s needed here to create a complete “two-way integration with Microsoft Dynamics C5:
Please take a look at the above information and let me know if you’re interested in this integration with Microsoft Dynamics C5. Thank you.
