I have recently been asked to develop an application that will have to integrate with Sage Line 50 financial software.
I’ve done some googling and I am surprised at the lack of info on interfacing with Sage from Java or .Net.
Is Sage such a black box that you need to sign up to a Sage Developer program before you get any info?
Are there any open source options to allow apps to talk to Sage?
Any info appreciated.
Cheers
Paul
Looking on the Sage UK site I found the following Developer SDK.
Upshot is that you need to use .Net if you want to use the SDK.
Problem is that the SDK is only available under the Developer programme which starts at £1500: Here’s the brochure.
However the developer programme does give you free copies of the Sage software for development purposes, so I can see the benefits if your business is Sage integration.
Another option is an addon for Sage which is sold by Sage for £299

This gives an XML import/export facility, this may be enough for my purposes.
