Overview
Connecting Sage 500 with your trading partners
Sage 500 ERP serves midsize distributors and manufacturers with SQL Server-based operations. Because Sage 500 stores its data in Microsoft SQL Server and supports data import tools, EDI integrations commonly use staging tables and stored procedures that validate incoming transactions before creating sales orders, and extract outbound shipments and invoices for translation.
ECOM connects Sage 500 to trading partners through PRISM, designing staging and validation that respect Sage 500's business rules and generating outbound documents from shipping and invoicing data. ECOM also provides Sage 500 implementation and support services, and can plan integrations so they move cleanly to a future ERP.
