Distribution

Mobile Automation – Pick ticket confirmations

Enhancements now allow confirmation of stock picked during pick ticket processing in detailed allocation. Confirmation can be applied at location, lot, or serial number level, improving picking accuracy and control.

Mobile Automation – Purchase order receipt

Purchase orders can now be received directly using a purchase shipment number, streamlining inbound processing.

Mobile Automation – Transaction customisation (Sage X3 Builder)

Several key transactions have been refactored to improve customisation capabilities using Sage X3 Builder, including:

• Miscellaneous issue by identifier

• Intersite transfer

• Stock change by LPN

Mobile Automation – Composite code for pick tickets

A new composite code structure can be defined via the Composite Code Settings function (GESCMPH), allowing custom fields to be included. Composite codes can then be scanned directly in the Pick Ticket transaction when using global allocation.

E-invoicing – outbound process updates

Updates have been made to improve flexibility and data handling in the outbound e-invoicing process, including:

• Management of e-invoicing method parameters by company legislation
• Enhanced e-invoicing fields for business partner, customer and supplier records

Purchasing – Bill-by supplier logic

When creating purchase invoices from receipts involving multiple purchase orders, only lines matching the invoice supplier are now available for selection, ensuring improved consistency in supplier billing.

Finance

AP automation document extraction

Duplicate checking can now be enabled for extracted documents. Supplier data is matched against the Sage AI directory to improve accuracy during extraction, with directory data prioritised when a match is found.

E-invoicing lifecycle management

Supplier e-invoices can now be refused in Sage X3. Lifecycle status can be synchronised with Sage Network and accessed directly from purchase and supplier invoices.

E-invoicing data synchronisation

Improvements have been made to e-invoicing data synchronisation for companies, customers, and suppliers, including enhanced electronic address handling and incremental synchronisation updates.

Payments improvements

Improvements have been made to payment and receipt rounding when bank and payment currencies differ, with updated controls for recalculating or retaining values.

Fixed assets import update

The physical asset import template has been corrected to ensure proper functional validation during import includes relevant compliance updates across European legislations to help support the most recent requirements.

Manufacturing

Stock period control issue price adjustments

A new control has been introduced to ensure issue price adjustments are posted before closing a stock period or fiscal year. 

Platform modernisation

Sage AI integration

Sage AI is now integrated into Sage X3 and Sage X3 Services. Sage Copilot Chat and Insights can be enabled or disabled via the Administration menu through either the Sage X3 Solutions function or Endpoints.

System requirements

MongoDB 8 is now the mandatory supported version.

Deprecations

Legacy mobile frameworks (syracuse-tablet and syracuse-mobile) are deprecated and will no longer function following upgrade to 2025 R2.
