Deep Dive: Sage 50 & Sage Intacct Integration Architecture

Our iPaaS provides a robust and flexible architecture to seamlessly connect Sage 50 and Sage Intacct, abstracting the complexities of each system and enabling intelligent, automated data flows.

Data Flow Steps

Secure Connectivity: Establish encrypted connections to Sage 50 (via a secure local agent leveraging ODBC/SDK) and Sage Intacct (via its native REST/XML APIs and Smart Events).

Event-Driven Triggers & Polling: Utilize Sage Intacct's Smart Events and webhooks for real-time updates. For Sage 50, configure efficient scheduled polling or Change Data Capture (CDC) mechanisms to detect changes.

Data Extraction & Ingestion: Extract relevant data entities (e.g., Customers, Vendors, Invoices) from source systems into the iPaaS's staging area.

Canonical Data Model & Transformation: Map source data to a canonical model, then transform it to align with the target system's schema, applying business rules, lookups, and data cleansing.

AI-Powered Validation & Enrichment: Leverage AI to validate data integrity, detect anomalies, suggest GL account mappings, and enrich data with missing dimensions before posting.

Data Loading & Posting: Use optimized API calls (batch processing for Sage Intacct, efficient SDK/ODBC writes for Sage 50) to post transformed and validated data to the target system.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement comprehensive logging, retry mechanisms, dead-letter queues, and real-time alerts for any integration failures.

Lifecycle Management: Manage integration flows through development, testing, and production environments with version control and automated deployment pipelines.

Data Touchpoints

Sage 50: Customer, Vendor, Item/Product, Sales Order, Purchase Order, Sales Invoice, Purchase Invoice, Payment/Receipt, General Ledger Account, Journal Entry.
Sage Intacct: Customer, Vendor, Item/Product, Sales Order, Sales Invoice, Vendor Bill, General Ledger Account, Journal Entry, Payment, Cash Receipt, Project, Dimension.
