Sage Evolution Integration
Put your Sage Evolution information to work across the business.
Scope connections around your Sage Evolution environment, from access to operational records through reporting and specialised business workflows.
The business need
Put your Sage Evolution information to work across the business.
Sage Evolution may hold information that other teams need, while daily reporting or follow-up still relies on repeated exports and manual preparation. Africube assesses your Sage Evolution environment and the specific information your business needs to use. We define a connection around the relevant records, business rules and destination. The work starts with your actual version, hosting arrangement and available access, so the proposed integration has a clear technical and operational scope.
Who it is for
- Businesses already using Sage Evolution
- Finance and operations teams sharing accounting information
- Managers seeking reporting from existing business records
- Organisations planning a specialised application alongside Sage Evolution
Scope & capabilities
What we can help you put in place.
Record and field mapping
Identify the records and fields needed for the business requirement. Agree how identifiers, dates, values and document relationships will be interpreted by the receiving process.
Reporting connections
Make agreed source information available to a reporting or analytics solution. Define the measures and refresh requirements with the team that will use the information.
Workflow connections
Assess how Sage Evolution information can support another application or operational process. Confirm the destination, permitted data access and direction of any exchange in the project scope.
Validation and documentation
Check representative results against the source records with your team. Document the connection, field mapping and assumptions so the agreed behaviour can be reviewed.

Before we scope the work
Start with your requirements.
Each integration is assessed against the Sage Evolution version and configuration in use. Confirm the information to be accessed, who may use it, how current it needs to be and the receiving system. Any required permissions, interfaces and data exchange are included in the agreed scope.
- Sage Evolution version and hosting details
- The records or documents needed by the receiving process
- Sample outputs or reports with confidential details removed
- Destination system details and required refresh frequency
Useful answers
Before we get started.
Does this work with every Sage Evolution environment?
Compatibility must be assessed for your version, configuration and available access. Share those details so Africube can confirm a suitable approach; the service does not assume that every environment supports the same connection.
Can we build dashboards from Sage Evolution information?
Africube can assess the records needed for your dashboards and how they can be accessed. Data preparation, measures, refresh frequency and dashboard delivery are then defined in the project scope.
How is this different from general systems integration?
This service focuses on the Sage Evolution environment and its role in your business. General systems integration covers connections between other applications, including projects where several sources and destinations are involved.
