How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to e-conomic
e-conomic is an accounting platform for managing finances. Easy Digital Downloads handles digital product sales beautifully, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to e-conomic.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting Easy Digital Downloads to accounting, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
- A e-conomic account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect e-conomic to AFI
e-conomic uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → e-conomic, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Easy Digital Downloads to e-conomic.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Easy Digital Downloads as the form provider. AFI fires when a purchase is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, payment data, and download links.
3. Select e-conomic as the destination
Choose e-conomic from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in e-conomic.
4. Map fields
Match each e-conomic field on the left to the corresponding Easy Digital Downloads field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, product details, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain purchases? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync completed payments or specific products.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Place a test purchase in your Easy Digital Downloads store. Check e-conomic to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps name and email to e-conomic with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.
