Robust Integration Architecture: Sage X3 & Authorize.Net

Our recommended architecture places a modern iPaaS at the core, facilitating secure, scalable, and resilient data exchange between Sage X3 and Authorize.Net. This approach minimizes point-to-point integrations and provides a unified platform for managing all financial workflows.

Data Flow Steps

Event-Driven Architecture: Utilize Authorize.Net webhooks and Sage X3 eventing (if available) for real-time, responsive integrations.

API-First Design: Leverage robust APIs from both systems, with the iPaaS abstracting complexities.

Canonical Data Model: Define a standardized intermediate data format within the iPaaS to simplify mapping between multiple systems.

Microservices-Style Integrations: Break down complex workflows into smaller, manageable, reusable integration components.

Centralized Governance: Manage all integration assets (connectors, flows, mappings) from a single iPaaS console.

Data Touchpoints

iPaaS Platform: The central hub for connection, orchestration, transformation, and monitoring.
Sage X3 Connector: Pre-built connector leveraging Sage X3's RESTful APIs (or SOAP for older versions) with secure authentication.
Authorize.Net Connector: Pre-built connector for Transaction API, CIM, ARB, and webhook management.
Workflow Engine: Defines and executes integration logic, including conditional flows and routing.
Data Transformation Engine: Maps and transforms data fields between disparate schemas.
Error Handling & Monitoring: Centralized logging, alerting, and retry mechanisms.
Secrets Manager: Securely stores API credentials and sensitive configurations.
AI Co-pilot: Assists with mapping, validation, anomaly detection, and flow generation.

"Conceptual diagram: eCommerce/POS -> iPaaS (Connectors for Authorize.Net, Sage X3) -> Authorize.Net / Sage X3. The iPaaS includes a workflow engine, data transformation, error handling, and monitoring. AI co-pilot functions overlay the iPaaS for enhanced automation."

Sales Order (SOH) / Order

Synchronize sales orders from eCommerce into Sage X3, with payment status from Authorize.Net.

AuthorizeNet Fields

NUM ORDDAT BPCORD AMT STACNF

Sage X3 Fields

orderId totalAmount currency orderStatus

Mapping Notes

Map eCommerce order details to Sage X3 Sales Order (SOH) for fulfillment. `orderId` from Authorize.Net links payment to the Sage X3 `NUM`. Payment status from Authorize.Net (`transactionStatus`) updates `STACNF` in Sage X3.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST /api/v1/sales/salesOrders Create new sales orders in Sage X3 from external systems (e.g., eCommerce) after payment authorization.
GET /api/v1/sales/salesOrders/{id} Retrieve specific sales order details and status for payment linking or updates.
POST /api/v1/financials/payments Record incoming customer payments in Sage X3 based on Authorize.Net transaction captures.
POST/PUT /api/v1/customers/businessPartners Create or update customer master records (Business Partners) in Sage X3, often in sync with CIM profiles.
POST /api/v1/financials/journalEntries Post daily Authorize.Net settlement summaries as general ledger journal entries for reconciliation.

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Currency Conversion: Automate conversion between different currencies used in Authorize.Net and Sage X3, applying real-time exchange rates if necessary.
  • Date/Time Formatting: Standardize date and time formats to ensure compatibility between systems.
  • Status Mapping: Translate transaction statuses (e.g., 'Approved', 'Declined', 'Settled') from Authorize.Net to corresponding statuses in Sage X3 (e.g., 'Confirmed', 'Payment Failed').
  • Address Normalization: Cleanse and standardize customer address data for consistency across Sage X3 and Authorize.Net CIM.
  • Aggregation for GL: Summarize multiple Authorize.Net transactions within a settlement batch into single, categorized journal entries for Sage X3.
  • Conditional Logic: Apply rules for handling partial payments, multiple payment methods, or specific fraud scores.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Authorize.Net Transaction Decline: iPaaS logs the decline reason, updates the order status in eCommerce, and potentially notifies the customer.
  • Sage X3 API Unavailable: iPaaS initiates retry logic with exponential backoff and alerts administrators if prolonged.
  • Data Validation Failure: If a required field is missing or invalid, the transaction is routed to a dead-letter queue for manual review, preventing bad data from entering Sage X3.
  • Duplicate Payment Attempt: Idempotency keys prevent duplicate Authorize.Net transactions. If Sage X3 detects a duplicate `Payment` record, it's flagged for review.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about integration implementation, security, and best practices.

Benefits FAQs

▸ What are the primary benefits of integrating Sage X3 with Authorize.Net?
The key benefits include automated payment processing, real-time order-to-cash synchronization, reduced manual data entry, improved financial reconciliation, enhanced PCI DSS compliance through tokenization, and better fraud prevention. It provides a unified view of financial data and customer payment history.

Security & Compliance FAQs

▸ How does this integration handle PCI DSS compliance and sensitive payment data?
The integration prioritizes PCI DSS compliance by leveraging Authorize.Net's Customer Information Manager (CIM) for tokenization. This ensures raw credit card data never touches your systems, significantly reducing your PCI scope. All data in transit and at rest within the iPaaS is encrypted, and secure credential management is strictly enforced.

Workflows FAQs

▸ Can I automate daily financial reconciliation between Authorize.Net and Sage X3?
Absolutely. Our iPaaS solution automates the reconciliation process by retrieving daily settlement batch reports from Authorize.Net, aggregating transaction data (sales, refunds, fees), and transforming it into journal entries for automatic posting to Sage X3's General Ledger. AI can further assist by flagging any discrepancies.

AI Capabilities FAQs

▸ What role does AI play in enhancing the Sage X3 and Authorize.Net integration?
AI significantly enhances the integration by assisting with auto-mapping data fields, suggesting optimal data transformations, detecting anomalies in financial transactions (e.g., potential fraud), and providing intelligent insights for error resolution. It also helps in validating data quality before it enters Sage X3.

Technical FAQs

▸ Is the integration real-time, or does it rely on batch processing?
The integration supports both real-time and scheduled processing. Critical workflows like payment capture, order creation, and refund processing leverage Authorize.Net webhooks for near real-time, event-driven synchronization. For non-time-sensitive tasks like daily settlement reconciliation, scheduled batch processing is used to optimize efficiency and API usage.
▸ Can I integrate Sage X3 with Authorize.Net if my Sage X3 is on-premise?
Yes, absolutely. Our iPaaS supports hybrid deployment models. For on-premise Sage X3 instances, a secure, lightweight agent can be deployed within your network to establish secure connectivity to the cloud-based iPaaS, ensuring seamless and secure data exchange without exposing your internal network directly to the internet.

Customization FAQs

▸ How difficult is it to customize or extend the integration workflows?
Our modern iPaaS offers a low-code/no-code visual designer, empowering business users and citizen integrators to easily customize and extend workflows. You can drag-and-drop new steps, add conditional logic, map custom fields, and define business rules without writing complex code, making the integration highly adaptable to your unique needs.

Error Handling FAQs

▸ What happens if there's an error in a transaction or data synchronization?
The iPaaS includes robust error handling. It provides detailed logging, configurable retry mechanisms for transient errors, and automated alerts for critical failures. Unprocessable messages are directed to a 'dead-letter queue' for manual review and reprocessing, ensuring no data is lost and enabling proactive resolution.
