Sage Line 50 Update Options

[Chris Chambers]

I'm researching dovetailing an existing order prcocessing system in Access into Actinic to enable "Web Trading".

However we do not want to post sales order details into Sage. We simply want to post a monetary total, date and order ref into the same "Web Sales" Ledger Account for each order.

Can Actinic be set up to do this please?

To expand this question a little, Chris want to know wether you can define the fields that Sage imports from either the Actinic end or the Sage end.

I said that if he posted here he would get a quick answer - don't let me down chaps ;-)

Actinic Link for Sage Line 50 has two ways of transferring orders from Actinic into Sage:

1) It can create a new Sales Order or Invoice (depending on the payment method used on the Actinic store)

2) It can transfer over a batch invoice record which is entered into the 'Activities' list for the Sage customer. You can assign these all to a default 'Internet' customer if you want.

Is this latter one closest to what you need?

The other thing Actinic can do is rather than posting batch invoices directly into the Sage database, it can create a file to be imported into Actinic. This is the 'BATCHINVCSV' method that is set up within the 'Transaction Types' tab. Maybe you could do some post-processing to this file to get it how you need it.
