Xml Integration

IMan gives you deep support for Xml data either as a file exchange format or webservices.

Xml

Xml once ruled the world! It’s structured & extremely flexible format means it’s perfect for exchanging data.

IMan XML integration provides you with rich capabilities for consuming and producing XML data. With IMan you can integrate any XML data producing application with Sage 300, Sage 200 (Standard), Sage 50, Sage X3, Sage Intacct and Acumatica.

Bi-Directional – Read & Write Capability

IMan you can consume and produce XML of any form, whether that’s hierarchical data from a REST webservice or data from a file.
Full REST Webservice Capabilities

IMan provides full REST webservice functionality – Basic & OAuth Authentication; throttling; tracing and error handling.
File & Email

Xml data can also be read from and written to files and to/from attachments in Email.

Read Capabilities

Full Hierarchical Data Support – Address any repeating node.
Address any node or attribute within an XML document using XPath.
Webservices capabilities allow you to query different REST endpoints as part of a single ‘read’. For example, perform a query to obtain a list of documents and another set of queries to obtain the details of each of the documents. IMan then pieces each of the results into a single set of transactions.
Simple SOAP based webservices can be consumed.
Consume 10’s of thousands documents in any single batch.
Multiple files or attachments can be consumed per integration.
Support for single, multiple & default Xml namespaces.
Xml webservices can be queried via a parameterised GET request through the WebserviceLookup function.

Write Capabilities

Full Hierarchical Data Support – Data can contain unlimited nesting of nodes. The nesting is controlled both by the logical arrangement of the data and through the XPath used to specify the structure of the fields and levels.
Webservices capabilities provide control over the operation being made.
Ability to perform a post per transaction i.e. a a POST per invoice, a PUT per shipment, or a write a file per shipment.
Templating Support – Complex Xml documents can use a template, removing the need to specify every node/attribute within a document.
‘Smart’ Capabilities – Separate child nodes which are differentiated by a single attribute (e.g. an id or type) can be done easily without complex transform.
Templating Support – Complex Xml documents can use a template, removing the need to specify every node/attribute within a document.
Support for single, multiple & default Xml namespaces.
