Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping

Understanding the core data entities and their precise mapping is fundamental to a successful Sage X3 X-Cart integration. Our iPaaS facilitates this with visual tools and AI assistance.

Sales Order (SOH) / Order

The central entity for customer purchases. X-Cart's 'Order' becomes Sage X3's 'Sales Order'.

X-Cart Fields

NUM (Order Number) ORDDAT (Order Date) BPCORD (Customer Code) CUR (Currency) AMT (Total Amount) SALFCY (Sales Site) STACNF (Confirmation Status) BPCCUR (Customer Currency)

Sage X3 Fields

order_id customer_id status total_amount currency payment_status shipping_address billing_address items[] (product_id, quantity, price, tax)

Mapping Notes

Crucial mapping includes `orderid` to `NUM`, `customerid` to `BPCORD` (after lookup or creation), `total_amount` to `AMT`, and individual `items[]` to Sage X3 sales order lines. X-Cart's `status` drives Sage X3's `STACNF` and subsequent processes.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
POST /api/v1/sales/salesOrders (POST) Creates new sales orders in Sage X3 from X-Cart's `Order` data. Requires mapping of customer, product, pricing, and shipping details.
GET /api/v1/sales/salesOrders/{id} (GET) Retrieves specific sales order details and status from Sage X3, useful for updating X-Cart's order status.
POST/PUT /api/v1/products/products (POST/PUT) Manages product master data in Sage X3, often for updates originating from a PIM or initial product sync.
GET /api/v1/products/products/{id}/stock (GET) Retrieves real-time inventory levels for a specific Sage X3 product, critical for X-Cart stock updates.
POST/PUT /api/v1/customers/businessPartners (POST/PUT) Creates or updates 'Customer (BPC)' records in Sage X3, typically triggered by X-Cart customer registrations.
POST /api/v1/financials/payments (POST) Records incoming customer payments (PAY) in Sage X3, linked to X-Cart payment transactions.

⚡ Transformation Logic

  • Field Renaming & Type Conversion: Automatically adjust field names (e.g., `total_amount` to `AMT`) and data types (e.g., string to decimal).
  • Lookup & Enrichment: Enrich X-Cart data with Sage X3 master data (e.g., customer internal ID, specific product attributes).
  • Conditional Logic: Apply rules like 'If X-Cart `payment_status` is 'paid', set Sage X3 `STACNF` to 'Confirmed'.
  • Data Aggregation/Splitting: Combine multiple X-Cart address lines into a single Sage X3 field or split X-Cart order items into separate Sage X3 sales order lines.
  • Date & Time Formatting: Standardize date/time formats across both systems.
  • Currency Conversion: Implement real-time currency conversion if applicable for multi-currency operations.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Sage X3 API Unavailable: iPaaS automatically queues messages and retries when Sage X3 is back online, with alerts sent.
  • Invalid X-Cart Product SKU: Order line item fails in Sage X3. The iPaaS flags the specific item, creates the rest of the order, and routes the failed item to an exception queue for manual correction or a predefined fallback (e.g., create a generic item).
  • X-Cart Rate Limit Exceeded: iPaaS automatically throttles requests, using exponential backoff, to stay within X-Cart's API limits.
  • Data Type Mismatch: AI identifies the mismatch during transformation, suggests a conversion function, or routes to an exception queue if no automated fix is possible.

This prevents overselling and ensures your online store displays accurate stock.
▸ What kind of API authentication does Sage X3 support for integrations?
Sage X3 typically supports OAuth 2.0 or API Key authentication for its newer RESTful APIs (especially version 12+), and basic authentication for its legacy SOAP-based Web Services. Our iPaaS securely manages these credentials, recommending OAuth 2.0 for enhanced security and granular access control.
▸ How do I manage errors and ensure data integrity in Sage X3 X-Cart integrations?
The iPaaS provides robust error handling, including automatic retries with exponential backoff for transient issues, dead-letter queues for unprocessable messages, detailed logging, and automated alerts. This ensures data integrity, minimizes data loss, and enables proactive resolution of any integration challenges.

Workflows FAQs

▸ Can I automate complex order workflows from X-Cart to Sage X3?
Absolutely. Our low-code iPaaS allows you to design and automate complex order-to-cash workflows. This includes validating X-Cart orders, creating new customers in Sage X3 if needed, generating 'Sales Orders (SOH)', allocating inventory, and updating X-Cart with shipment details and tracking numbers – all without custom coding.

AI FAQs

▸ How does AI enhance the Sage X3 X-Cart integration?
AI significantly enhances the integration by providing intelligent assistance for tasks like suggesting optimal field mappings, detecting anomalies in data (e.g., potential fraud in X-Cart orders), validating data against business rules, and even suggesting automated resolutions for common integration errors. This reduces manual oversight and improves data quality.

Customization FAQs

▸ Is it possible to customize the integration to fit my unique business rules?
Yes, our iPaaS is highly customizable. Using a visual, low-code editor, you can easily define custom business rules, conditional logic, and advanced data transformations. You can map custom fields from both Sage X3 and X-Cart, ensuring the integration perfectly aligns with your specific operational needs.
