The Challenge

The Challenge of Disconnected Infor and Sage 100 Systems

In today's fast-paced business environment, relying on manual data transfers or fragmented point-to-point integrations between your Infor applications and Sage 100 leads to significant operational bottlenecks, data inconsistencies, and delayed decision-making. These challenges hinder growth and erode profitability.

  • Manual data entry between Infor (e.g., sales, inventory) and Sage 100 (accounting) is error-prone and time-consuming.
  • Lack of real-time visibility into inventory, customer orders, and financial status across both systems.
  • Delayed financial close cycles due to complex data reconciliation between Infor and Sage 100 GL.
  • Inconsistent customer and vendor master data leading to poor service and compliance issues.
  • Difficulty in scaling operations as manual processes cannot keep pace with business growth.
  • Limited insights for strategic decision-making due to fragmented reporting.

Deep Dive: Infor & Sage 100 Integration Architecture

Our integration solution provides a robust, flexible, and secure framework to connect Infor and Sage 100. Leveraging a modern iPaaS, it abstracts the complexities of each system's native interfaces, offering a unified platform for seamless data exchange and workflow orchestration.

Data Flow Steps

System A (Infor) Event/Trigger: A business event occurs in Infor (e.g., new Sales Order, inventory update, customer creation) or a scheduled poll is initiated.

iPaaS Infor Connector: Our specialized Infor connector captures the event or extracts data using Infor's native APIs (OAuth 2.0, API keys).

Data Transformation & Validation: The iPaaS's visual mapping canvas and AI-assisted tools transform Infor's data structure to align with Sage 100's specific schema. Data validation rules are applied.

System B (Sage 100) Connector: Our Sage 100 connector prepares to interact with Sage 100, typically via the Business Object Interface (BOI) for robust data manipulation or ODBC for read-heavy operations.

Data Ingestion to Sage 100: The transformed data is written to Sage 100 entities (e.g., ARCustomer, SOSalesOrderHeader/Detail) through optimized batch or real-time operations.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Any failures are logged, retried (with exponential backoff), and alerts are sent. The iPaaS dashboard provides real-time monitoring.

Bidirectional Updates: For two-way syncs (e.g., inventory, customer status), changes in Sage 100 are detected (via database triggers or scheduled queries) and propagated back to Infor, following a similar transformation process.

Data Touchpoints

Infor Customer <-> Sage 100 AR_Customer
Infor Sales Order <-> Sage 100 SO_SalesOrderHeader/Detail
Infor Product <-> Sage 100 CI_Item
Infor Inventory Item <-> Sage 100 IM_ItemWarehouse
Infor Invoice <-> Sage 100 AR_InvoiceHeader/Detail
Infor Payment Transaction -> Sage 100 AR_CashReceipts
Infor Purchase Order <-> Sage 100 PO_PurchaseOrderHeader/Detail
Infor Vendor <-> Sage 100 AP_Vendor
Infor General Ledger Account -> Sage 100 GL_Account
Infor Journal Entry -> Sage 100 GL_JournalHeader/Detail
Infor Employee -> Sage 100 (Payroll/GL)

"Infor (Event/API) --> iPaaS (Connect, Transform, Validate, AI Assist) --> Sage 100 (BOI/ODBC). Bidirectional flows for master data and status updates."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Infor & Sage 100

Achieving accurate data synchronization between Infor and Sage 100 hinges on precise entity mapping and robust transformation logic. Our iPaaS provides a visual canvas and AI assistance to streamline this complex process for core business entities.

Customer

Represents a business or individual entity that purchases goods or services. Central to sales, marketing, and finance.

Infor Fields

CustomerID CustomerName BillingAddress ShippingAddress ContactEmail PhoneNumber PaymentTerms CreditLimit

Sage 100 Fields

CustomerNo CustomerName AddressLine1 City State AccountStatus CreditLimit EmailAddress

Mapping Notes

Infor's CustomerID should map to a custom field in Sage 100 (e.g., UDF) for cross-referencing. Address fields require careful concatenation/splitting. CreditLimit often needs bidirectional sync with Sage 100 being the master for financial limits.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

General Benefits FAQs

What are the primary benefits of integrating Infor with Sage 100 using an iPaaS?
Integrating Infor and Sage 100 via an iPaaS provides real-time data synchronization, automated cross-system workflows (e.g., Order-to-Cash, P2P), reduced manual effort, improved data accuracy, faster financial closes, and enhanced visibility across your enterprise. It leverages API-first connectivity, low-code automation, and can incorporate AI for intelligent decision-making, making your Infor-Sage 100 ecosystem more agile and efficient.

Technical FAQs

How does an iPaaS handle the different integration methods of Infor and Sage 100?
A modern iPaaS acts as an abstraction layer. It connects to Infor using its native APIs (OAuth 2.0, API keys) for real-time data exchange. For Sage 100, which traditionally lacks a comprehensive REST API, the iPaaS utilizes robust connectors that interact directly with Sage 100's Business Object Interface (BOI) for transactional integrity and ODBC for efficient data retrieval. This approach unifies disparate connectivity methods into a single, manageable platform.
Can I integrate Infor with my existing legacy Sage 100 system (on-premise)?
Yes, a modern iPaaS is designed to connect both cloud-native and legacy systems. While Infor's newer versions offer robust APIs, an iPaaS can leverage secure agents to connect to on-premise Sage 100 instances via BOI or ODBC, facilitating a phased modernization approach and ensuring your existing investments are protected.

Low-Code FAQs

Can I use low-code/no-code tools to build Infor and Sage 100 integrations?
Absolutely. Modern iPaaS platforms offer intuitive low-code/no-code interfaces, enabling business analysts and citizen integrators to design, build, and deploy complex Infor and Sage 100 workflows with minimal coding. This democratizes integration, accelerates development cycles, and reduces the burden on traditional IT teams, allowing for quicker adaptation to business changes.

AI & Automation FAQs

What role does AI play in Infor and Sage 100 integration and automation?
AI significantly augments Infor-Sage 100 integration by providing intelligent capabilities such as automated data mapping suggestions, anomaly detection in financial transactions (e.g., invoices), predictive inventory management, and autonomous exception handling. This reduces manual intervention, improves data quality, offers proactive insights, and accelerates the integration development process.

Security & Compliance FAQs

How do I ensure data security and compliance when integrating Infor with Sage 100?
Data security is paramount. Best practices include using robust authentication methods (OAuth 2.0, service accounts with least privilege), encrypting data in transit (TLS/SSL) and at rest, implementing strict access controls (RBAC), tokenizing sensitive data (e.g., payment info), and ensuring your iPaaS adheres to industry-standard security certifications (e.g., ISO 27001, SOC 2). Comprehensive audit trails are also crucial for compliance.

Challenges & Solutions FAQs

What are the common challenges when integrating Infor with Sage 100, and how are they overcome?
Common challenges include the difference in API maturity (modern Infor APIs vs. Sage 100's BOI/ODBC), ensuring data consistency across disparate schemas, managing custom fields, and handling error detection/resolution. A flexible iPaaS overcomes these by providing specialized connectors, robust mapping engines, AI-assisted transformation, and a centralized framework for error handling and monitoring.

Financial Benefits FAQs

How do Infor and Sage 100 integrations impact financial close processes?
Automated Infor-Sage 100 integrations, especially for financial data from subsidiaries or payment systems, significantly streamline the financial close process. By ensuring real-time, accurate posting of transactions (like invoices, payments, journal entries) to Sage 100's General Ledger, it reduces manual reconciliation, accelerates reporting, and improves compliance, leading to faster and more reliable financial statements.
