Unify Your Commerce: Sage 100 & Clarity eCommerce Integration

Automate order processing, synchronize inventory in real-time, and create a 360° customer view with intelligent, low-code integration.

The Challenge

The Disconnect Between Your eCommerce and ERP Systems

Operating Sage 100 and Clarity eCommerce as disconnected systems creates significant operational inefficiencies, data discrepancies, and limits your business's ability to scale. Manual data transfer is not only time-consuming but also prone to costly errors.

  • Manual order entry from Clarity eCommerce into Sage 100 is slow and error-prone.
  • Out-of-sync inventory leads to oversells, backorders, and customer dissatisfaction.
  • Fragmented customer data prevents a unified view for sales, service, and marketing.
  • Delayed financial reconciliation of eCommerce payments impacts cash flow visibility.
  • Inconsistent product information across systems causes confusion and operational friction.
  • Lack of real-time insights hinders rapid decision-making and responsiveness.

Technical Integration Details: Sage 100 & Clarity eCommerce

This integration leverages an advanced iPaaS platform as the central orchestration hub, connecting Sage 100 and Clarity eCommerce through their respective APIs and event-driven mechanisms. The architecture prioritizes real-time data flow, robust error handling, and scalable performance to ensure seamless operations.

Data Flow Steps

Connectors & Authentication: Establish secure connections using pre-built connectors. Sage 100 typically uses authenticated API access (user-based, API keys) or ODBC, while Clarity eCommerce leverages OAuth 2.0 (client credentials) and API keys.

Event Listeners & Webhooks: Configure Clarity eCommerce webhooks (e.g., `order.created`, `product.updated`) to trigger iPaaS workflows instantly. For Sage 100, utilize API listeners or intelligent polling for changes in critical entities like inventory.

Data Mapping & Transformation: Define canonical data models within the iPaaS. Use the visual mapping canvas to precisely align fields between Sage 100's structured data and Clarity eCommerce's flexible schema. Apply transformation rules for data enrichment, formatting, and calculation.

Business Logic & Validation: Implement conditional logic, routing rules, and AI-assisted data validation to ensure data integrity and automate exception handling. This includes deduplication, address validation, and credit limit checks.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Configure automated retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and real-time alerts. Monitor integration health and performance from a centralized dashboard.

Deployment & Governance: Promote tested workflows from Dev to QA to Production environments with version control and audit trails. Maintain centralized governance over all integration assets.

Data Touchpoints

Clarity eCommerce: Order, Product, Customer, Inventory, Payment Transaction, Shipment, Return, Coupon/Discount, Invoice, Address.
Sage 100: Sales Order (SO), Customer (AR Customer), Item (Inventory Item), Invoice (AR Invoice), Payment (AR Cash Receipt), Vendor (AP Vendor), Purchase Order (PO), General Ledger Account (GL Account), Shipment (Shipping History), Inventory Warehouse.

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Data Mapping

Seamless integration relies on precise mapping and transformation of core business entities between Sage 100 and Clarity eCommerce. Our iPaaS provides a visual canvas, augmented by AI, to handle these complexities.

Order / Sales Order

Represents a customer's purchase. Clarity eCommerce 'Order' is the source for Sage 100 'Sales Order'.

Clarity eCommerce Fields

SalesOrderNo OrderDate CustomerNo ShipToAddress BillToAddress OrderStatus LineItems (ItemCode, QuantityOrdered, UnitPrice)

Sage 100 Fields

orderId customerId orderDate status totalAmount shippingAddress billingAddress lineItems (sku, quantity, unitPrice)

Mapping Notes

Crucial for order fulfillment. Line item details (SKU, quantity, price) must align. Shipping and billing addresses need careful parsing. Status mapping (e.g., 'Processing' in Clarity to 'Open' in Sage 100) is vital.

eCommerce Order Fulfillment Automation

When a customer places an order on Clarity eCommerce, it instantly creates a Sales Order in Sage 100, triggers inventory allocation, and initiates the fulfillment process, with shipment details updating Clarity.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 Customer completes checkout on Clarity eCommerce.
  2. 1 Clarity eCommerce `order.created` webhook sends order data to iPaaS.
  3. 2 iPaaS transforms Clarity 'Order' data to Sage 100 'Sales Order' format.
  4. 3 New 'Sales Order' is created in Sage 100 via `/SO/SalesOrder` endpoint.
  5. 4 Sage 100 'Item' inventory is decremented and reserved.
  6. 5 Upon shipment from warehouse, Sage 100 'Shipment' record is created.
  7. 6 iPaaS captures Sage 100 shipment details (tracking number, carrier).
  8. 7 Clarity eCommerce 'Shipment' entity is updated via `/api/v1/shipments`, triggering customer notifications.

Business Outcome

Real-time order processing, faster fulfillment, accurate inventory, automated customer communication, reduced manual effort.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Benefits FAQs

What is the primary benefit of integrating Sage 100 with Clarity eCommerce?
The primary benefit is end-to-end automation of your order-to-cash cycle, real-time inventory synchronization, and a unified customer view. This eliminates manual data entry, reduces errors, accelerates order fulfillment, and provides accurate financial reporting, leading to significant cost savings and improved customer satisfaction.

Technical FAQs

How does this integration handle real-time inventory synchronization?
The integration leverages event-driven architecture and API calls. When inventory levels change in Sage 100 (e.g., goods receipt, sales order fulfillment), the iPaaS detects these changes and instantly updates Clarity eCommerce's inventory via its `/api/v1/inventory` endpoint, preventing oversells and ensuring accurate stock display online.

Customization FAQs

Can I customize the data mapping and business rules for my specific needs?
Absolutely. Our iPaaS provides a low-code visual designer that allows you to customize data mapping, apply complex transformation rules, and define conditional business logic without extensive coding. AI-assisted mapping further streamlines this process, suggesting optimal field alignments.

Error Handling FAQs

What happens if an order fails to sync from Clarity eCommerce to Sage 100?
The integration includes robust error handling. Failed transactions are captured in a dead-letter queue, and automated alerts notify your team. The iPaaS provides detailed logs for troubleshooting, and in many cases, automated retry mechanisms can resolve transient issues without manual intervention.

Security & Compliance FAQs

Is the integration secure and compliant with data privacy regulations?
Yes, security is paramount. All data in transit is encrypted with TLS 1.2+, and credentials are stored in an encrypted vault. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is enforced. The iPaaS adheres to industry standards like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and assists with compliance for GDPR, CCPA, and PCI DSS where applicable, ensuring your data is protected.

AI Capabilities FAQs

How does AI enhance this Sage 100 and Clarity eCommerce integration?
AI augments the integration by providing intelligent features such as auto-mapping suggestions, real-time anomaly detection in order data (e.g., potential fraud), predictive error resolution, and smart data validation. This reduces manual effort, improves data quality, and provides proactive operational insights.

Data Synchronization FAQs

What types of data can be synchronized between Sage 100 and Clarity eCommerce?
Virtually any data can be synchronized, including Sales Orders, Customers, Inventory Items, Product details (SKUs, descriptions, pricing), Invoices, Payments, and Shipment tracking information. The specific entities depend on your business workflows and configuration.
