How Middleware Integration Works

Benefits of Integrating WooCommerce

Integrating WooCommerce fosters greater efficiency and data accuracy. Automate your critical business processes to deliver consistently outstanding results.

Hover over the steps on the right to see detailed integration points.
  • WooCommerce Order Creation to Sage 100 Sales Order
  • Sage 100 Inventory Update to WooCommerce
  • Sage 100 Shipment Confirmation to WooCommerce Order Status
  • WooCommerce Refund to Sage 100 Credit Memo
  • Customer Data Synchronization (Bi-directional)
Data Mapping

Data Entity Mapping

Explore how data flows between systems with intelligent field mapping and transformation logic.

Sales Order / Order

A customer's purchase in WooCommerce maps directly to a Sales Order in Sage 100, initiating fulfillment and financial processes.

WooCommerce Fields

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

Sage 100 Fields

id status currency total customer_id billing shipping line_items shipping_lines tax_lines date_created

Mapping Notes

WooCommerce `Order` (id, status, total, line_items) maps to Sage 100 `Sales Order` (SalesOrderNo, OrderStatus, InvoiceTotal, LineItems). Customer details from WooCommerce billing/shipping map to Sage 100 Customer and ShipTo/BillTo addresses. Line items require careful mapping of SKU to ItemCode and quantity/price.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
GET, POST, PUT /AR/Customer Create/update customer records from WooCommerce.
POST, PUT /SO/SalesOrder Create new sales orders from WooCommerce and update their status.
GET, PUT /CI/Item Retrieve product information and update inventory levels.
POST /AR/Invoice Create Accounts Receivable invoices (including credit memos) based on WooCommerce orders/refunds.
POST /GL/JournalEntry Post general ledger entries for financial reconciliation from various sub-ledgers or external systems.

Transformation Logic

  • Map WooCommerce `line_items` SKU to Sage 100 `ItemCode`.
  • Convert WooCommerce order `billing` and `shipping` address objects into Sage 100 flat address fields.
  • Map WooCommerce `status` strings (e.g., 'processing', 'completed') to Sage 100's `OrderStatus` codes.
  • Calculate and map tax and shipping costs from WooCommerce to specific Sage 100 GL accounts or line items.
  • Standardize date and currency formats between systems.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Sage 100 API unavailability: Automated retries, queuing, and alerts.
  • Invalid data from WooCommerce: Data quarantined, AI suggests corrections, human review.
  • Duplicate customer records: Deduplication logic applied, potential merges flagged.
  • Inventory mismatch: Alert triggered, reconciliation report generated.
  • Network connectivity issues: Exponential backoff retries, circuit breaker pattern.

Support & Information

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Benefits FAQs

What are the primary benefits of integrating Sage 100 with WooCommerce?
The core benefits include automating order-to-cash workflows, achieving real-time inventory synchronization to prevent overselling, centralizing customer data for a 360-degree view, and streamlining financial reconciliation for online sales and refunds. This significantly reduces manual effort, errors, and accelerates fulfillment.

Technical FAQs

How does an iPaaS facilitate Sage 100 and WooCommerce integration?
A modern iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) provides pre-built connectors for both Sage 100 and WooCommerce, offering a low-code/no-code visual interface to design, build, and manage complex workflows. It handles API authentication, data mapping, transformations, error handling, and real-time event triggers (webhooks), abstracting technical complexities.

Customization FAQs

Can I sync custom fields between Sage 100 and WooCommerce?
Yes, absolutely. Our iPaaS solution is designed to handle custom fields (User-Defined Fields in Sage 100, or custom meta fields in WooCommerce). You can easily map and synchronize these fields using the visual mapping canvas, ensuring all relevant business data flows between your systems.

Data Flow FAQs

How does the integration ensure real-time inventory accuracy?
The integration leverages Sage 100 as the master for inventory. Any change in `QuantityOnHand` within Sage 100 triggers an immediate update to the corresponding `stock_quantity` in WooCommerce via an event-driven workflow. This real-time synchronization, often facilitated by webhooks or efficient polling, virtually eliminates overselling.

Security FAQs

What kind of security measures are in place for this integration?
Security is paramount. The integration uses encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS 1.2+), secures API keys in encrypted vaults, implements role-based access control, and adheres to data privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA. For payment data, it follows PCI DSS best practices by leveraging payment gateway tokenization.

AI FAQs

How does AI enhance the Sage 100 and WooCommerce integration?
AI capabilities augment the integration by suggesting field mappings, validating incoming data for accuracy and anomalies (e.g., potential fraud in orders), inferring business rules, and automating exception handling. This leads to smarter, more resilient, and efficient workflows with less manual oversight.

Error Handling FAQs

What happens if an order integration fails?
Our robust error handling ensures no data is lost. The iPaaS includes automated retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for transient issues. Persistent failures are moved to a dead-letter queue for manual inspection and reprocessing, and configurable alerts notify your team immediately, allowing for proactive resolution.

Performance FAQs

Can this integration handle high volumes of eCommerce orders?
Yes. The architecture is designed for scalability, utilizing event-driven triggers, asynchronous processing, intelligent batching, and robust queuing mechanisms within the iPaaS. This ensures efficient handling of peak order volumes without impacting performance on either Sage 100 or WooCommerce.
