ERP integration

Which ERP systems can send Level 3 data?

Short answer

Every major ERP holds the data Level 3 requires, because it is already on the invoice. The question is whether a payment connector exists that reads it and transmits it. Connectors are available for NetSuite, Sage, QuickBooks, Acumatica, Epicor and SAP Business One, though capability varies by product and version. Where no connector exists, the options are a gateway with manual enhanced-data entry or a custom API integration.

The fuller explanation

Confirm three things before assuming you are covered: that a connector exists for your exact version rather than the product family, that it transmits Level 3 and not only Level 2, and that freight and duty fields are populated rather than left blank.

The distinction between Level 2 and Level 3 is frequently blurred in vendor marketing. Enhanced data is not a defined standard; Level 2 and Level 3 are.

Also ask what happens to qualification when somebody raises a manual invoice outside the normal flow, because that is where qualification usually breaks first.

Important caveats

  • Compatibility changes with versions and vendor roadmaps. Verify against your exact version rather than a matrix published at any point in time.
  • Solving acceptance without solving reconciliation leaves you with clean interchange and a manual month-end.

Follow-up questions

Do we need to change ERP to fix this?
Almost never. Replacing an ERP to reduce payment cost would be the wrong trade in nearly every case.
