The Value of a Two-way Integration with Sage X3
Safeguard your Operation with a Reliable, Secure, and Fail-Proof
Connection
As a next step, the entirety of integrated information from Sage X3
can then pass back into the eCommerce back-end. This essentially
enables the platform to hydrate the data with more robust marketing
information that is shared with Sage X3. The Clarity Connector
platform can intelligently facilitate these systems to sync and allow
the eCommerce side of things to enrich the data once received from
Sage X3. Thus, the eCommerce platform can serve as the marketing
team's focused management area with respect to product data. In
addition, the Sage X3 API integration grants robust capabilities for
the following:
- Sales orders
- Invoices
- Quotes
- Any kind of checkout process
- Ordering information
- Users that are created
- Line items and the details within them
- Taxes and any form of tax integration, like Avalara or TaxJar
- Shipping and fees
- Customs and duties
- Multiple discounts (on the item order or shipping level)
-
Payments and transactional information, including split payments
- Refunds for line items or the entire order
-
Associated calculations for reversing any shipping, taxes, handling
fees, etc.
The above information in its totality would be available by using the
Clarity Connect platform to integrate Sage X3 with an eCommerce
system. The key to successfully enabling this integration is to set up
a connector of superior capability that can smartly handle all the
different processes. We typically refer to those as jobs or tasks that
line up and the connector performs. Within those tasks, there’s the
ability to complete scheduled and business logic-based data
transformations or workflows. The access covers the full collection of
entities and fields, including custom entities and fields within Sage
X3. A queue-based persistent task engine ensures that each of those
different integration tasks runs, and then reports back to a dashboard
utility.
The application enables scaling, failover, and heightened security,
all combined under the system’s persistent performance. Queue-based
models work exceptionally well for the enterprise in this respect,
rendering the system powerfully redundant and scalable. The effort is
guaranteed to continue even if a system is offline, as the connector
persists with its tasks or jobs until they complete successfully. In
addition to customer's accounts, categories, product sales orders,
invoices, and quotes, it's also possible to integrate shipments,
shipment status, transactions, and payments. Within shipments and
orders, their status can be identified and then real-time, or near
real-time, data with tracking and overall order information can be
provided from Sage X3.
