Shopping cart in PowerApps Portal

The client wanted to create a shopping cart feature within their PowerApps Portal that would showcase their products stored in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. They sought to deliver a comprehensive e-commerce experience directly from the portal, allowing users to browse products, add them to a shopping cart, and complete the purchase—all while ensuring the process was seamless and fully integrated with their existing Dynamics 365 environment.

The Challenge

What Was Holding the Business Back?

The organization wanted to extend its Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environment with a modern online shopping experience while ensuring product information, pricing, and order processing remained fully synchronized.

Digital Commerce The business lacked an integrated e-commerce platform connected directly to Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations.
Manual Order Flow Managing quotes, orders, and invoices manually increased processing time and operational complexity.
Data Synchronization Product availability, pricing, and order status needed to remain accurate across customer and ERP systems.
Customer Experience The organization required a secure, intuitive purchasing journey from product discovery to order completion.
