X3 User Setup
It is recommended to setup a separate user for IMan and assign the necessary roles and access required to post the data to be imported by IMan.
Webservices Pool Setup (V6.x, V7, PU8)
In order to connect to X3 it is first necessary to setup a webservice pool. This is performed through the SAFE X3 V1 Management Console.
Please note this step does not need to be performed for PU9 and upwards.
- Open the Management Console and go to the Web Servers section.
- Click Webservices & expand and find the Sage X3 Instance and Folder you wish to create the webervice pool.
- Press the Add Button to create a new pool.
- In the grid at the bottom enter the following:
Parameter |

---|---|
pool.def.alias |
