Sage 200 Standard, fed straight from operations

A business running Sage 200 Standard wanted to stop re-keying sales invoices and supplier costs. We built an integration that respects how Sage 200 works: invoices are posted as sales and purchase orders, ready to be invoiced in bulk.

The challenge

What needed solving

  • The Sage 200 API does not allow invoices to be created directly, so a straight invoice push was not possible.
  • Discounts are applied per line in the operations system but per unit in Sage 200, which caused rounding differences.
  • Customer and supplier codes had to match exactly to avoid duplicate accounts.
  • Customers on hold or hidden in Sage 200 must not reappear in the operations system.

The outcome

  • Sales and supplier invoices reach Sage 200 without re-keying.
  • Totals match to the penny, even on discounted lines.
  • Finance keeps the Sage 200 order-to-invoice workflow they already trust.

The solution

What we built

01

Sage 200 API connection

A guided set-up using a Client ID, Client Secret and Subscription Key, followed by Sage 200 sign-in and selection of the target company.

02

Reference data import

New customers, suppliers, tax codes, nominal codes and payments flow in from Sage 200. On-hold and hidden accounts are skipped automatically.

03

Invoices as sales orders

Sales invoices become Sage 200 sales orders with one order line per invoice line. The invoice number is written to the Customer Order Number field so every order can be traced.

04

Purchase invoices as purchase orders

Supplier invoices become purchase orders, ready for bulk invoicing in Sage 200. Project and hire-contract invoices are covered too.

05

Discount recalculation

Line-level discounts are converted to per-unit values so totals in Sage 200 match the original invoice exactly.

06

Self-healing sync

If an invoice references a customer or supplier that does not exist yet, the integration creates it in Sage 200 first and then carries on.
