The Configuration module is used to set up the integration between Sage 100 ERP and Salesforce. Here we can create a new integration or edit an existing integration.
To create a new Integration follow the steps below.
Search for the GUMU™ Settings app in the app launcher, click on the highlighted application.
A new window appears, click on the Configuration tab.
Next, click on the New Integration button.
Another screen will appear where you need to specify the Sage 100 login credentials.
Field | Description |
ERP System | Select the ERP system from the dropdown menu to set up credentials (select Sage 100) |
Web Service URL | Specify the domain or subdomain URL linked with IIS for Sage 100 (e.g., https:\\example.com) The URL would be the same as above (example.com), but bolded would be your hosted web service server domain name Note: Salesforce supports only secure external web services so your Domain should be certified by public certificate authority (i.e., VeriSign, go daddy, etc.) |
Path | Specify the Sdata Path (e.g., /SData/MasApp/MasContract) |
Name | Specify the name for Integration which should be unique (e.g., Integration – ABX) |
Synchronization | Select the direction to Synchronize data (it can be one way from Sage to Salesforce, Salesforce to Sage or it can be bi-directional) |

In-Active | This defines if the integration is active or not (if checked, the Integration is rendered inactive, and the jobs/actions linked to this integration will not be performed) |
Company Code | This is the Code that is used to distinguish Sage 100 Companies (Sage 100 Company Code vs Sage 100 Test Company Code for example) |
Username | User ID of the Sage 100 company to which the connection needs to be made |
Password | Password of the Sage 100 company to which the connection needs to be made |
Click on the “Test Connection” button to check if the connection is being established.
If the connection is successfully established, save the details.
A successful save would take you to the Integration List where you will see the configuration record just added.
This feature will enable the user to set application settings. Click on the gear button.
Once you click on the ERP Configuration gear, a new page opens with the following fields:

Data between Sage 100 and Salesforce can be synced by utilizing the “Entity mappings” functionality of GUMU™. To create a default entity and mappings, click on the below highlighted icon.
The default entities and the default entity mappings are automatically created and can be seen in the “Entity Setting” and “Entity Mapping/Import” tabs respectively.
