Managed integration operations by APIWORX." lang: en --- Commerce operations automation · Connect · Automate · Orchestrate · Flat-fee pricing Outsourced fulfilment · Finance Sage Intacct: https://apiworx.com/connectors/sage-intacct ShipBob: https://apiworx.com/connectors/shipbob # Connect Sage Intacct + ShipBob Automate order (for financial recognition), shipment event, inventory movement, fulfilment and storage charges, returns between Sage Intacct and ShipBob — with monitoring and managed support from APIWORX. See How It Works APIWORX connects the systems your business already uses and takes responsibility for the agreed integration workflows after go-live. The exact objects, direction and cadence are fixed in writing during scoping. ERP + eCommerce Specialists Managed & Monitored Integrations Expert Integration Team APIWORX Provides the Service ## Yes. APIWORX connects Sage Intacct and ShipBob. But connecting the applications is only the beginning. The work that costs you time sits in the process running between them. APIWORX automates that process end to end — the objects moving between Sage Intacct and ShipBob, the ownership rules that decide which system wins, the exceptions when a record will not post, and the monitoring that tells someone before your team finds out from a customer. Order-to-cash automation: https://apiworx.com/solutions/order-to-cash Fulfillment automation: https://apiworx.com/solutions/fulfillment-automation Inventory synchronization: https://apiworx.com/solutions/inventory-synchronization How it works ## From requirements to a managed integration 1 ### Tell Us What You’re Connecting Provide the systems, workflow and business requirements. 2 ### We Design the Integration APIWORX recommends the integration architecture, mappings and implementation approach. 3 ### We Build, Monitor & Support It APIWORX implements the integration and provides ongoing monitoring and support as applicable. ## Who this is for This page is for finance teams running Sage Intacct as the accounting system of record while ShipBob fulfils direct-to-consumer and wholesale orders. ### What needs to be in place - Sage Intacct with API access and a service user permitted to create the transactions in scope. - A ShipBob account with the channels and fulfilment centres already live. - Agreed accounts, classes and dimensions for revenue, fulfilment cost and inventory movement. - A named finance contact for accrual, cut-off and adjustment decisions. ### When you may not need this A single channel with low order counts can be reconciled from ShipBob reports each month. Integration earns its place when order volume, channel count or the monthly close effort makes that reporting cycle a standing cost. ### What is out of scope - Which system owns each inventory position is agreed before build; the integration reflects that decision rather than guessing. - Fulfilment charges and storage billing are only posted to the ERP when the provider exposes that data and the accounts are agreed. - Warehouse operating decisions — pick methods, packing rules, carrier selection — stay with the provider. - Kitting, lot and serial handling are scoped case by case and are not assumed to be included. ## What actually moves, and who owns it A representative scope. Exact transactions, dimensions and charge handling are confirmed before build.

Events are stamped with their source timestamp so the period they belong to is a rule, not a judgement call. - Source event timestamps retained alongside posting dates. - Agreed cut-off rule applied consistently each period. - Late-arriving events posted to the agreed period. ### Charge data does not match expectations Where ShipBob exposes fulfilment and storage charges, they post on an agreed cadence — and anything that fails validation is held rather than posted to a suspense account by default. - Charge batches validated before posting. - Held items reported with the period and reason. - Finance approves the correction before reposting. ### Inventory positions drift between systems Rather than assuming both systems agree, positions are reconciled on an agreed cadence and differences are reported instead of quietly overwritten. - Reconciliation run on the agreed schedule. - Differences reported with SKU and location. - Adjustments posted only on your approval. ## Reliability and ownership The operating rules that apply to this workflow after go-live. - Every order handed to the fulfilment provider is logged with its ERP reference, and every event returned is matched back to that reference. - Failed sends are retried on a defined schedule; anything still failing is held in an exception queue with the rejection reason. - Duplicate prevention keys on the order identifier so a replay never creates a second fulfilment request. - Inventory positions are reconciled on an agreed cadence rather than assumed to be in step. - Exceptions are worked by the APIWORX team and escalated to your named contacts when a business decision is needed. - Support windows and response commitments live in your agreement; this page does not state an SLA. ## How a fulfilment is traced Illustrative — not customer data An illustrative reference trace from order through ShipBob shipment to the Sage Intacct entry. | Channel order number | ShipBob order reference | | --- | --- | | ShipBob fulfilment centre | Sage Intacct location dimension | | ShipBob shipment identifier | Sage Intacct transaction reference | | Charge batch period | Sage Intacct posting period | ## Scope and questions Do you post ShipBob fulfilment charges? Where ShipBob exposes the data and the accounts are agreed in scoping. We do not claim a charge posting scope before confirming what is available. Which system owns inventory? That is decided in scoping. The integration reflects the decision and reconciles on an agreed cadence rather than assuming. Can returns be included? Yes, when the return disposition data is available and the accounting treatment is agreed. Who owns exceptions? APIWORX works the queue and escalates to your named contacts when a business decision is required. Your integration plan ## Get My Integration Plan Tell us what systems you need connected.
