Deep Dive: Integration Architecture & Data Flow

Our integration solution is built on a modern iPaaS foundation, ensuring robust, scalable, and secure data exchange between Sage X3 and Amazon Seller Central. It emphasizes an API-first, event-driven approach to deliver real-time insights and automation.

Data Flow Steps

Secure Connectivity: Establish secure, authenticated connections to both Sage X3 (via REST/SOAP APIs) and Amazon Seller Central (via SP-API OAuth 2.0).

Event-Driven Triggers: Utilize Amazon SP-API webhooks for instant notification of new orders, returns, or inventory changes. For Sage X3, leverage Change Data Capture (CDC) or its eventing mechanisms for real-time stock/product updates.

Data Ingestion & Extraction: The iPaaS acts as a central hub, ingesting data from source systems and extracting data for target systems, handling various formats (JSON, XML, CSV).

Canonical Data Model & Transformation: Data is normalized into a canonical format within the iPaaS. A powerful, low-code mapping engine, often AI-assisted, transforms data between the disparate schemas of Sage X3 and Amazon Seller Central. This includes field-level mapping, data type conversions, and complex business logic application.

Validation & Harmonization: AI-driven validation rules ensure data quality, consistency, and compliance with business rules before data is committed to either system. Data harmonization ensures consistent entities (e.g., product SKUs, customer IDs) across both platforms.

Orchestration & Workflow: The iPaaS orchestrates multi-step business processes, defining the sequence of operations, conditional logic, and error handling for complex workflows like order-to-cash or financial reconciliation.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Comprehensive error handling, including automated retries with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues for unprocessable messages, and real-time alerts, ensures data integrity and operational continuity. Centralized dashboards provide end-to-end visibility.

Deployment & Governance: Integration flows are managed through a structured Dev -> QA -> Prod promotion pipeline with version control, ensuring stability and traceability.

Data Touchpoints

Amazon: Orders, OrderItems, Products, InventoryItems, Listings, Shipments, SettlementReports, PaymentTransactions, Returns, FulfillmentInboundShipments.
Sage X3: Sales Orders (SOH), Customers (BPC), Products (ITM), Inventory (STO), Invoices (SIH), Payments (PAY), Journal Entries (GACC), Ledger Accounts (ACC), Sites (FCY).
