What Sage X3 integration covers

Sage X3 is Sage's ERP for businesses that make, move and sell products, built to run several companies, sites, currencies and tax legislations in one system. Sage now sells it cloud-first, with other deployment options still available; for a few years it was marketed as Sage Enterprise Management before the Sage X3 name came back. An integration ties X3 to the systems your customers and sales team use, and Clarity Connect carries the records between them in both directions, as they happen or on a schedule.

Records synced with Sage X3

  • Customers
  • Sales orders
  • Products
  • Stock by site
  • Prices
  • Invoices and receipts
  • Shipment status

How the Sage X3 connection runs

Orders in, stock and status out

New web orders can be sent to Sage X3 the moment they're placed, while stock figures and shipment updates come back from X3 on a timetable you pick. If X3 can't be reached, the job waits in Connect's retry queue rather than being dropped.

Several companies and sites

Sage X3 keeps companies and sites apart by design. During discovery we agree which X3 sales site each store order belongs to and which sites' stock the store should show, so the mapping matches how your X3 is set up.

Sage cloud or your own servers

Where X3 runs on your own servers, Connect sits inside your network and only opens connections out to the store or CRM. Where X3 is in Sage's cloud, Connect runs in the cloud too, with access limited to what each system needs.

The integration routes Sage documents for X3

Sage's preferred API for new X3 integrations is GraphQL, delivered through Sage X3 Services, which has to be installed and configured on your X3 system. One endpoint answers queries and mutations, so a single request can return exactly the fields an integration asks for. Calls carry a bearer token issued to a connected application set up in X3's administration, tied to a dedicated X3 user; each request and response is limited to 6 MB.

X3 also publishes its objects and subprograms as SOAP web services through its Syracuse web server. Your X3 licence sets how much data those SOAP calls may exchange per day, month or year, so we check that limit against the expected order volume. For large loads, X3's import and export templates take files, or the same templates can be run through Sage's import and export web services.

How Clarity Connect runs it

Clarity Connect is Clarity's integration platform. It holds a persistent, two-way link between Sage X3 and each connected system, and every flow, such as orders into X3 or stock out to the store, runs as its own task in real time or on a schedule. Clarity has built more than 3,000 integrations on it, and clients can have the platform and connector source code.

How a Clarity Connect project runs
  1. Discovery

    A Clarity business analyst documents the data fields and workflows each system can share and which ones you need.

  2. Tasks and mapping

    Each flow becomes a Connect task, such as orders to the ERP or stock to the store, set to run in real time or on a schedule.

  3. Testing

    Orders and updates are run end to end, including the return trip of statuses back to the customer-facing system.

  4. Live, with a dashboard

    Queues and scheduled tasks show in Connect's Hangfire dashboard. A job whose target is offline is retried 10 times, every 30 minutes, and can be re-queued once the cause is fixed.

Clarity Connect is sold as a SaaS subscription at $599 a month or as a one-time license at $15,000 with no ongoing fees, and larger projects are priced to scope. See pricing.

Questions

Which Sage X3 API does the integration use?

It depends on your X3 set-up. Where Sage X3 Services is installed we use Sage's GraphQL API; otherwise the integration calls X3's published SOAP web services or its import templates. Discovery settles which route fits each flow.

Does the Sage X3 licence limit integration traffic?

For SOAP web services, yes: the licence sets a data volume per period, and calls slow down and then stop once it's exceeded. We size the integration against that limit before go-live.

Can Sage X3 stay on our own servers?

Yes. Connect is installed inside your network next to X3 and only reaches out to the cloud systems it serves, so X3 isn't opened to the internet.

What does Clarity Connect cost?

$599 a month as SaaS, or a one-time $15,000 license with no ongoing fees; bigger projects are quoted to scope. See pricing.
