Vytelle Eliminates Manual OPU Billing Risk Across a 23-Country Operation

A custom API integration and dedicated billing module connected Vytelle's advanced.io platform to D365 Business Central, automating OPU billing across a global precision cattle genetics operation.

Vytelle Eliminates Manual OPU Billing Risk Across a 23-Country Operation

Summary

Vytelle's OPU billing required manual re-entry from their advanced.io platform into D365 Business Central, creating financial record risk across a 23-country operation. Folio3 AgTech built a custom API integration and dedicated billing module to automate the data flow, eliminating manual entry and connecting Vytelle's field operations to their ERP for the first time.

The Challenge

A Manual Billing Process That Couldn't Keep Pace With a Global Operation

Vytelle processes OPU billing across dozens of satellite locations, laboratories, and country markets. Every billing record from a donor collection event had to be manually re-entered from their advanced.io operations platform into D365 Business Central. The volume was growing. The risk was compounding. And the gap between their field operations and their ERP had no automated fix.

A Manual Billing Process That Couldn't Keep Pace With a Global Operation

Manual Billing Entry

OPU billing data from advanced.io required manual re-entry into D365 Business Central, creating a measurable error risk on every record.

Financial Record Risk

Manual entry posed accuracy risks to OPU financial records at every satellite location and lab across Vytelle's growing global network.

Disconnected Systems

advanced.io and D365 Business Central had no data connection. OPU billing had to move between them manually, step by step.

Scale Without Systems

As Vytelle expanded into more countries and labs, the manual billing volume grew faster than the team could reliably manage.

Our Approach

How Folio3 AgTech Built a Billing Integration That Matched Vytelle's Actual Workflow

Folio3 AgTech didn't build a generic connector. OPU billing has domain-specific logic tied to event types, donor records, lab locations, and collection outcomes. The work started with understanding how that billing actually moved through advanced.io before a single line of integration code was written.

1

Discovery and Requirements Mapping

Documented how OPU billing data moves through advanced.io, what D365 Business Central needs to receive, and where the existing manual handoff was creating accuracy gaps.

2

Custom API Development

Built a dedicated API layer to bridge advanced.io and D365 Business Central, designed to transfer OPU billing data reliably without any manual data entry step.

3

Billing Module Integration

A dedicated billing module was integrated into advanced.io to capture and organize OPU event billing data, structuring it for automatic transfer into D365 Business Central.

4

Automated Data Transfer

Set up an automated billing data transfer so every OPU event recorded in advanced.io immediately updates Vytelle's D365 Business Central financial records without manual input.

5

Iterative Refinement

Ran multiple rounds of testing, live demonstrations, and iterative requirement adjustments to confirm the integration matched Vytelle's actual OPU billing logic precisely before going live.

The Platform

A Purpose-Built Integration for OPU Billing and Financial Sync

Folio3 AgTech delivered a purpose-built integration connecting Vytelle's advanced.io field operations platform to D365 Business Central. Every component was designed around how OPU billing actually works, not a generic template.

A Purpose-Built Integration for OPU Billing and Financial Sync

Custom API Bridge

A dedicated API layer connects advanced.io and D365 Business Central, built specifically for Vytelle's OPU billing structure and event-based workflow.

Dedicated Billing Module

A billing module built inside advanced.io captures and organizes OPU event billing data, queuing it automatically for D365 ERP synchronization.

Automated Billing Sync

OPU billing data flows from advanced.io to D365 Business Central automatically. No manual re-entry, no handoff step, and no delay.

OPU Billing Logic

Custom billing rules encode Vytelle's specific structure for oocyte collection events, ensuring billing data lands correctly in D365 every time.

Real-Time Data Flow

Billing records move from field operations to the ERP as OPU events complete, keeping Vytelle's financial data current without delays.

Error Risk Removed

The manual re-entry step that created billing errors is gone. OPU financial data flows from the field to D365 directly.

Iterative Build Process

The solution was refined through multiple rounds of testing, demonstrations, and requirement sessions to match Vytelle's actual billing workflow precisely.

Scalable Integration Architecture

The integration is built to handle growing OPU volumes across Vytelle's expanding global network without adding manual overhead or workarounds.

"The team was intuitive, solution-minded, and genuinely driven to get the job done. What stood out wasn't just the technical output. It was the way the work got done. Personable, focused, and easy to work with. That combination is rare, and it's exactly why we've asked them to stay involved moving forward."

Automated OPU Billing Across a Global Precision Livestock Operation

Before the integration, every OPU billing record generated in advanced.io had to be manually re-entered into D365 Business Central. That step is gone. Billing data now flows directly from field operations to the ERP as events are recorded. Financial records are accurate, current, and no longer dependent on manual intervention to reach the system that manages them.
