Unify Epicor & Sage 100: Intelligent Automation for Connected Operations

Break down data silos between your manufacturing ERP and core accounting. Achieve real-time visibility, automate critical workflows, and drive business efficiency with our AI-powered iPaaS integration.

The Challenge

The Disconnect: Why Epicor and Sage 100 Silos Hurt Your Business

Operating Epicor for manufacturing and Sage 100 for financials in isolation creates significant operational bottlenecks, data inconsistencies, and hinders strategic decision-making. These 'swivel-chair' processes drain resources and introduce costly errors.

  • Manual data entry leading to errors and delays across sales orders, inventory, and financial records.
  • Lack of real-time visibility into inventory levels, sales performance, and financial health.
  • Disjointed customer and vendor data across systems, impacting service quality and vendor relations.
  • Slow and complex month-end closes due to manual reconciliation of transactions between ERP and accounting.
  • Inability to quickly adapt to market changes or scale operations without increasing manual workload.

Technical Integration Details: Epicor & Sage 100 Connectivity

Our iPaaS acts as the central orchestration hub, intelligently connecting Epicor's rich RESTful API ecosystem with Sage 100's robust, yet traditional, integration interfaces (BOI, ODBC). This architecture ensures secure, scalable, and real-time data exchange, transforming complex integration challenges into streamlined, automated workflows.

Data Flow Steps

Connection Establishment: Securely connect to Epicor via OAuth 2.0 or token-based authentication and to Sage 100 via dedicated service accounts, IP whitelisting, and either ODBC/SQL direct access or BOI through a specialized iPaaS connector.

Event & Data Capture: Utilize Epicor's BPM engine for outbound event triggers (e.g., Sales Order created, Inventory adjusted) or poll Epicor's REST APIs. For Sage 100, implement Change Data Capture (CDC) or database triggers to detect updates, or leverage scheduled polling for less time-sensitive data.

Data Transformation & Mapping: Ingest data from the source system into the iPaaS. Leverage the visual mapping canvas and AI-assisted tools to transform and normalize data structures between Epicor's and Sage 100's schemas. Apply business logic, lookups, and aggregations as needed.

Workflow Orchestration: Design multi-step workflows to ensure transactional integrity. For example, creating a Sales Order in Epicor, then updating inventory, then posting relevant financial entries to Sage 100.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement robust error handling (retries, dead-letter queues, alerts) and provide real-time monitoring dashboards to track integration health and data flow.

Data Ingestion: Push the transformed data to the target system via its respective API/interface, ensuring all required fields and business rules are met.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General FAQs

What is the primary benefit of integrating Epicor and Sage 100?
The primary benefit is achieving a unified view of your operational and financial data, eliminating data silos, reducing manual data entry, and automating critical business workflows like order-to-cash and procure-to-pay. This leads to real-time visibility, improved accuracy, and significant efficiency gains.

Technical FAQs

How does your iPaaS handle the different API capabilities of Epicor and Sage 100?
Our iPaaS leverages Epicor's modern RESTful APIs directly. For Sage 100, which traditionally uses interfaces like BOI (Business Object Interface) or ODBC, our platform acts as an abstraction layer. It wraps these traditional interfaces, making them accessible and manageable as API-like endpoints within the iPaaS, ensuring a consistent and modern integration approach.

Use Cases FAQs

Can I automate complex manufacturing workflows between Epicor and Sage 100?
Absolutely. Our iPaaS allows you to orchestrate complex manufacturing workflows. You can synchronize production order status from Epicor's JobHead to external MES or internal reporting, and ensure all related inventory movements and WIP (Work-in-Progress) financial postings are accurately reflected in Sage 100's GL and inventory modules.

Data Flow FAQs

What kind of data synchronization is supported (one-way, two-way, real-time)?
Our solution supports flexible data synchronization modes. This includes one-way sync (e.g., Epicor Sales Order to Sage 100 AR), two-way sync (e.g., Customer or Item master data), and crucially, event-driven, real-time synchronization for critical updates like eCommerce orders, inventory level changes, and payment receipts, ensuring your data is always current.

AI Features FAQs

How does AI enhance the Epicor Sage 100 integration?
AI significantly enhances the integration by providing intelligent automation. This includes AI-driven data mapping suggestions, automated anomaly detection in transaction flows, intelligent exception handling (e.g., auto-resolving common data validation errors), and even natural language processing for document intake like AP invoices, boosting efficiency and accuracy beyond simple rules.

Security FAQs

What are the security considerations for this integration?
Security is paramount. We implement OAuth 2.0 for Epicor API authentication, use dedicated service accounts with least-privilege access for Sage 100, enforce HTTPS/TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit, and store API keys/credentials in an encrypted vault. Data redaction in logs and compliance with regulations like GDPR/CCPA are also key considerations.

Low-Code FAQs

Can business users manage these integrations without coding?
Yes, absolutely. Our modern iPaaS platform offers extensive low-code/no-code capabilities. Business analysts and citizen integrators can graphically design, configure, and deploy Epicor and Sage 100 integrations and workflows using a drag-and-drop interface, significantly accelerating development and reducing reliance on specialized developers.

Error Handling FAQs

How are data discrepancies or errors handled during integration?
Our iPaaS provides robust error handling. This includes automated retries with exponential backoff for transient issues, dead-letter queues for persistent failures, configurable alerts for critical errors, and an intuitive dashboard for monitoring. AI can also assist by identifying anomalies and suggesting fixes for common data validation errors, minimizing manual intervention.
