Why teams connect Amazon S3 and Sage X3

Move the documents and data that Sage X3 produces into Amazon S3 as files, and let files stored in Amazon S3 update the records they belong to in Sage X3, continuously and without exports or manual filing.

Sage X3 runs the business on structured records: Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Work Orders, Stock / Inventory by site. Amazon S3 holds files and the metadata that describes them: Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions, Prefixes (folders). The two do not share a customer table or an order ledger. What they share is documents. Nearly every record Sage X3 touches produces a file that belongs in storage, whether an invoice, a purchase order, a statement, or a shipping doc, and many files that land in Amazon S3, from signed contracts to vendor bills to receipts, describe a transaction Sage X3 needs to record. Left unconnected, that link is maintained by hand: someone exports a PDF and drags it into a folder, or downloads a file and keys its details into a record.

Stacksync keeps Sales Orders, Purchase Orders, Work Orders, Stock / Inventory by site in Sage X3 and Object metadata, Object tags, Object versions, Prefixes (folders) in Amazon S3 in sync, bi-directionally and in real time. A document and its details, the customer, the type, the date, an amount, an order or invoice number, are mapped field by field, so a file arrives in Amazon S3 already labeled and filed, and metadata captured against a stored file can create or update the matching record in Sage X3. Changes on either side show up within seconds, with conflict resolution in place of nightly exports and manual filing.

The result is that a transaction and the document that backs it stay together. Finance, operations, and audit teams find the file behind a record without digging through folders, and the record in Sage X3 and the file in Amazon S3 never describe two different versions of the same document.

Common use cases

  • 01 Publish per-site stock levels to storefronts and a WMS on a schedule.
  • 02 Replicate GL journals and sales history to a warehouse for multi-company, multi-legislation reporting.
  • 03 Trigger a database or ERP record update the moment an S3 Event Notification fires an object-created event, for example when a partner drops an EDI or invoice file into an inbound prefix.
  • 04 Reconcile Object versions and delete markers into an audit table so teams track when files under a compliance prefix were added, replaced, or removed.

Common sync patterns

Where Amazon S3 captures inbound files: details reach the record

A contract, vendor bill, or receipt added to Amazon S3 with its details can create or update the matching record in Sage X3, so a document captured outside the finance system still reaches the books.

An archive that stays current

As records change in Sage X3, the corresponding files and metadata in Amazon S3 are kept in step, so a stored document reflects the latest version rather than a stale one-time export.

Audit-ready retention

Every transaction's supporting file lives in Amazon S3 beside its metadata, giving finance and audit teams a complete, searchable trail tied back to the record in Sage X3.

What you can sync between Amazon S3 and Sage X3

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Amazon S3 objects Sage X3 objects How this pairing syncs
Object versions When bucket versioning is enabled every write creates a new version ID; prior versions and delete markers are readable for history and audit syncs. Deliveries Shipment documents synced to logistics providers and customer portals. Object versions is specific to Amazon S3 and Deliveries to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Prefixes (folders) Logical path segments in object keys used to scope a sync and to parallelize throughput, since S3 rate limits partition by prefix. Business Partners (Customers and Suppliers) Shared partner master synced with CRMs and procurement systems. Prefixes (folders) is specific to Amazon S3 and Business Partners (Customers and Suppliers) to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Multipart uploads In-progress large-object uploads assembled from parts; objects above ~100 MB (required above 5 GB) are written this way, and incomplete uploads persist until completed or aborted. Products Item master with units, costing, and site data, synced to commerce and PLM tools. Multipart uploads is specific to Amazon S3 and Products to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Buckets Top-level, region-scoped containers that hold objects; enumerated to discover the namespaces and prefixes a sync should cover. Sales Orders Order documents written from external channels and read for fulfillment status. Buckets is specific to Amazon S3 and Sales Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Objects Files stored under a key; content is read with GET and written with PUT, and each object's key/size/ETag/LastModified is the unit indexed into a database. Purchase Orders Procurement documents synced with supplier-facing systems. Objects is specific to Amazon S3 and Purchase Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Object metadata System metadata (Content-Type, size, ETag, LastModified) plus user-defined x-amz-meta-* headers; user metadata is fixed at write time and only changeable by rewriting the object. Work Orders Production orders read by MES and scheduling integrations. Object metadata is specific to Amazon S3 and Work Orders to Sage X3 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Amazon S3 and Sage X3

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Amazon S3 Sage X3 Sub-second propagation

DetectionAmazon S3 notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to Sage X3 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

Sage X3 Amazon S3 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Sage X3 for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Scheduled polling.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Amazon S3 through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Amazon S3: S3 sustains at least 3,500 PUT/COPY/POST/DELETE and 5,500 GET/HEAD requests per second per partitioned prefix and scales higher automatically; bursts can return HTTP 503 SlowDown while it repartitions.

How the Amazon S3 and Sage X3 connectors work

Amazon S3

Integration surface
S3 REST API (also via AWS SDKs and the S3-compatible endpoint)
Authentication
AWS IAM credentials — an access key ID and secret access key signed with AWS Signature Version 4; supports temporary STS credentials and cross-account IAM roles
Change detection
S3 Event Notifications push object-created, object-removed, and object-tagging events to SNS, SQS, Lambda, or EventBridge; there is no modified-since query, so polling relies on each object's LastModified from ListObjectsV2
