What you can automate

What can the Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext Make integration do?

It links your Sage 50 data, through the Hyperext API, to Make, where you build a scenario: a chain of modules, each one a small brick that searches, reads, creates or updates a record. The app has no trigger of its own, so every scenario starts from a schedule set in Make or from another app.

Orders that reach Sage 50 without retyping. When an online shop or a form tool records a sale, Search Customers finds the matching account and Create a Sales Order books the order under it. Allocate a Sales Order is the next brick when your team allocates each order once it exists.

A supplier file that stays current. When purchasing approves a new vendor in a sheet, Create a Supplier adds it and Update a Supplier corrects it later, so everyone works from one version of each supplier.

Invoices your other tools can read. Search Sales Invoices returns the invoices that match your filter, and each one travels as a bundle, one item handed from a module to the next, toward a sheet or a chat channel. Allocate a Payment on an Account then records what a customer paid.

What Make does not do here: nothing starts the moment a record changes in Sage 50, and the Make documentation lists no limits for this app. Each module run counts as one operation, the unit Make counts on your plan; Make pricing explains how plans compare. If you are weighing another tool, n8n vs Make sets out the criteria, and Make training walks you through your first builds.

Connect

How do you connect Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext to Make?

  1. 01

    Open the connection window

    In your scenario, add any Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext module and click Create a connection. A connection is your account linked to Make once, then reused by every module of this app. The Connection name field is optional but helps you spot it later.

  2. 02

    Paste the Hyperext details

    Fill the URL field with the address Hyperext Support gave you, then the Token field with the AuthToken from the same place. Both values come from Hyperext, not from Sage or Make, so ask their support if you do not have them yet.

  3. 03

    Save and confirm access

    Click Save. If a window asks you to authenticate or confirm access, accept it. The connection then shows in the module, and Make can list the records it is able to read from your Sage 50 data.

First scenario

Your first scenario: turn a new sale into a Sage 50 order

GoalWhen a sale is recorded in another app, Make finds the customer in Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext and creates the sales order.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    From the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the +. Pick the app where your sales happen, such as your shop or form tool, and choose its trigger as the first module.

  2. 02

    Look up the customer

    Click the + on the right, search Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext, pick Search Customers and click Create a connection. Map the buyer details from the first module so Make looks for the right account.

  3. 03

    Add the order

    Add Create a Sales Order after the search. Map the customer returned by Search Customers and the sale details from the first module into the fields Make displays.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Click Run once and open each module to read the bundles it received. If the search returned several customers, tighten it before going further, or one sale could create several orders.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch on

    Set the schedule on the first module; a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default. Then switch the scenario on, and each new sale reaches Sage 50 with no manual entry.

Modules

What each Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext module does

Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext gives you 42 modules in 13 groups. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Settings

2 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext1

Read API Version

ActionIn the docs only

This one tells you which version of the Hyperext API your connection talks to, a quick way to confirm Make reaches your Sage 50 data before you build anything bigger.

When to use it
as the very first module of a test scenario, right after you save the connection.
Watch out
it reads nothing from your accounts, so a successful run only proves the link works.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext2

Read Company Settings

ActionIn the docs only

Your company settings from Sage 50 land in the scenario, so later modules can reuse them instead of you typing company details by hand into every document.

When to use it
at the start of a scenario that produces messages or files which must carry your company information.
Watch out
run it once and read the bundle to see which settings come back before you map anything.

Customers

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext3

Search Customers

SearchIn the docs only

Finds the customer accounts in Sage 50 that match what you enter and hands each one to the next module as its own bundle.

When to use it
before creating an order or an invoice, to get the right account from the details your shop or CRM provides.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or several customers; add a filter after it so a single sale does not become duplicate documents.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext4

Read a Customer

ActionIn the docs only

With it you get the full record of one customer you already know, ready to map into a message, a sheet or another module.

When to use it
when an earlier module, often Search Customers, has already identified the account and you need everything Sage 50 holds on it.
Watch out
it works on a single customer; to look through many, a search module is the right tool.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext5

Create a Customer

ActionIn the docs only

New clients go straight into Sage 50 as customer accounts, built from data that arrives elsewhere, which saves retyping each one into the ledger.

When to use it
when a signed quote or a first order comes in from your CRM or shop and the buyer is not in Sage 50 yet.
Watch out
run Search Customers first, otherwise a repeat buyer can end up with a second account.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext6

Update a Customer

ActionIn the docs only

Keeps a customer record in Sage 50 aligned with changes made in another tool, so the accounts team never works from outdated details.

When to use it
when a client changes address or contact person in your CRM and you want Sage 50 to follow.
Watch out
an update overwrites what was there; test with Run once on a sample customer before switching the scenario on.

Suppliers

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext7

Search Suppliers

SearchIn the docs only

Supplier accounts matching your criteria come back one by one, each as a separate bundle for the rest of the scenario to work with.

When to use it
when a purchase request names a vendor and you need its Sage 50 account before raising an order.
Watch out
several vendors can match a loose search; narrow it until you get the single account you expect.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext8

Read a Supplier

ActionIn the docs only

Returns the complete record of one supplier so you can reuse its details elsewhere, in an approval message or a purchasing sheet.

When to use it
after Search Suppliers has pointed to the right account and you need the rest of its data.
Watch out
it reads one supplier at a time, and each read counts as one operation on your Make plan.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext9

Create a Supplier

ActionIn the docs only

Opens a new supplier account in Sage 50 straight from an onboarding form or a vendor list, with no copy and paste between tools.

When to use it
when procurement approves a new vendor in another tool and accounting needs the account to exist before the first bill.
Watch out
check with Search Suppliers that the vendor is really new, or its history ends up split across two accounts.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext10

Update a Supplier

ActionIn the docs only

Edits an existing supplier record so the details in Sage 50 match what your purchasing team knows today.

When to use it
when a vendor sends new contact details or terms and someone logs them in a sheet or a form.
Watch out
map the supplier from a search or read module rather than typing it, so the update lands on the right account.

Products

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext11

Search Products

SearchIn the docs only

Locates the products in your Sage 50 list that match your search and returns each as a bundle, the base for a catalog sync or a stock report.

When to use it
before Create a Product, to check whether an item from your shop already exists.
Watch out
a loose search returns many products and each one moves through the next modules, so narrow it first.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext12

Read a Product

ActionIn the docs only

Brings the stored record of one product into the scenario, ready for a quote, a catalog sheet or a message to the warehouse.

When to use it
when you already know which item you need, for example the one picked in an order from another app.
Watch out
for a list of items, start with Search Products instead, which can return several at once.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext13

Create a Product

ActionIn the docs only

Adding an item to your Sage 50 product list no longer needs a second entry: the scenario takes it from the place where new products are first described, such as a shop or a catalog sheet.

When to use it
when a product goes live elsewhere and must exist in Sage 50 before the first order uses it.
Watch out
test on one product with Run once and check the result in Sage 50 before letting a whole list through.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext14

Update a Product

ActionIn the docs only

Any change made to an item in your catalog tool can be carried over to the matching Sage 50 product, without repeating it by hand.

When to use it
when an item's details change in the shop and accounting must follow.
Watch out
one update runs per bundle, so a large catalog change uses as many operations as there are products.

Pricing

3 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext15

Search Products Selling Prices

SearchIn the docs only

Selling prices recorded in Sage 50 for the products matching your search come back one bundle per price, ready to reuse.

When to use it
when a quote or an online listing must show the price your accounts actually hold.
Watch out
expect several results for a broad search, and add a filter if only one price should move on.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext16

Read all Price Lists

ActionIn the docs only

Collects every price list defined in Sage 50 in one run, a useful snapshot when your prices depend on the customer.

When to use it
to copy your price lists into a sheet the sales team can check without opening Sage 50.
Watch out
the result can be large; test with Run once and read the bundles before sending them anywhere.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext17

Read a Customer Price List

ActionIn the docs only

Shows the price list tied to one customer, so the prices you send that client match the ones Sage 50 holds for them.

When to use it
when building a quote or an order confirmation for an account with negotiated prices.
Watch out
find the customer first with Search Customers, then map it here instead of typing the account by hand.

Sales orders

5 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext18

Search Sales Orders

SearchIn the docs only

Sales orders matching your filter come out of Sage 50 one bundle per order, ready to feed a report or a follow-up.

When to use it
to hand the sales team a list of orders in a sheet, or to check whether an order from your shop already exists.
Watch out
each returned order continues through the next modules, so a wide search multiplies the operations.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext19

Read a Sales Order

ActionIn the docs only

Retrieves one sales order in full, with what Sage 50 stores on it, so you can reuse it in a message or another app.

When to use it
when a customer asks about an order and your helpdesk scenario needs its details.
Watch out
it needs to know which order; map it from Search Sales Orders or from the module that created it.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext20

Create a Sales Order

ActionIn the docs only

Books a new sales order in Sage 50 from a sale that happened somewhere else, which removes the retyping step between shop and accounts.

When to use it
when a web order, a signed quote or a form arrives and should become an order in Sage 50.
Watch out
pair it with Search Customers so each order sits under an existing account, and test with Run once before switching on.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext21

Update a Sales Order

ActionIn the docs only

Adjusts an order already in Sage 50 when the sale changes after booking, so both systems tell the same story.

When to use it
when a customer changes an order in your shop or CRM after placing it.
Watch out
the change replaces what was recorded; confirm the target order with a read module first, then run it on a sample.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext22

Allocate a Sales Order

ActionIn the docs only

Performs the allocation of a sales order in Sage 50 from inside the scenario, instead of someone doing it by hand once the order is booked.

When to use it
as the next module after Create a Sales Order, when your team allocates each order once it exists.
Watch out
it acts on one order per bundle, so map the order returned by the previous module rather than a fixed value.

Purchase orders

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext23

Search Purchase Orders

SearchIn the docs only

Lists the purchase orders that match your filter, each passed on as a bundle for a report, a reminder or a check.

When to use it
when buyers want a sheet of the orders placed with a supplier, or before creating one to avoid a duplicate.
Watch out
several orders can come back; a filter keeps the next modules focused on the ones you need.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext24

Read a Purchase Order

ActionIn the docs only

A single purchase order, with its details, becomes available to the scenario, handy when a delivery note or a supplier email refers to it.

When to use it
when a delivery note arrives in your inbox and you want to compare it with the order in Sage 50.
Watch out
it covers one order only; for a batch, start with Search Purchase Orders.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext25

Create a Purchase Order

ActionIn the docs only

Raises a purchase order in Sage 50 from a request approved in another tool, so buying and accounting share the same document.

When to use it
when a purchase request is approved in a form or a project tool.
Watch out
look up the supplier first with Search Suppliers and map it, so the order lands on the right account.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext26

Update a Purchase Order

ActionIn the docs only

When a supplier confirms a change, this module brings the existing purchase order in line without anyone editing it by hand in Sage 50.

When to use it
when the confirmation comes by email or through a portal and your team logs it in another tool.
Watch out
every run changes live accounting data; keep a Run once test on a sample order before activation.

Sales invoices / Credits

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext27

Search Sales Invoices

SearchIn the docs only

Retrieves the sales invoices matching your criteria, one bundle each, so they can flow into a dashboard, a sheet or a chat channel.

When to use it
when finance wants a shared view of invoices without giving everyone access to Sage 50.
Watch out
each run of the scenario repeats the search, so the same invoices can come back; plan how the destination handles repeats.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext28

Read a Sales Invoice

ActionIn the docs only

Hands you the details of one sales invoice so you can quote it in a reminder, a customer message or a support ticket.

When to use it
when a client disputes an invoice and your helpdesk flow needs the Sage 50 version at hand.
Watch out
it reads a single invoice; map the one found by Search Sales Invoices instead of typing a number.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext29

Create a Sales Invoice

ActionIn the docs only

Issues a sales invoice in Sage 50 from a sale or a delivery recorded in another app, cutting out the manual entry.

When to use it
when a job is delivered or a payment is logged elsewhere and billing must follow.
Watch out
an invoice is an accounting document, so test the whole scenario with Run once on a test customer before activating it.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext30

Update a Sales Invoice

ActionIn the docs only

Corrects a sales invoice already recorded, so a change agreed with the client shows in Sage 50 without reopening it by hand.

When to use it
when an adjustment is approved in your CRM or ticketing tool.
Watch out
map the invoice from a search or read module so the correction reaches the right document.

Purchase invoices / Credits

1 module
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext31

Create a Purchase Invoice

ActionIn the docs only

Supplier bills get recorded in Sage 50 from data captured elsewhere, for example an invoice pulled from an email or a shared folder.

When to use it
when bills arrive in an inbox and your team wants them entered without typing.
Watch out
it is the only module of its group, with no search or update beside it; for anything else on purchase invoices, Make an API call is the fallback.

Projects

5 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext32

Read a Project

ActionIn the docs only

Pulls one project record out of Sage 50, so the accounting view of a job can appear in the tool where the team actually follows the work.

When to use it
when a project board needs the accounting side of a job.
Watch out
map the project from another module rather than hard-coding it, or the scenario keeps reading the same job.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext33

Create a Project

ActionIn the docs only

As soon as a job starts elsewhere, a matching project appears in Sage 50, ready for costs to be booked against it.

When to use it
when a deal is won in your CRM or a new job is created in your project tool.
Watch out
there is no module to search projects, so store the project returned here in your other tool for later updates.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext34

Update a Project

ActionIn the docs only

Changes a project already in Sage 50 when its details move in your project tool, keeping accounting aligned with the work.

When to use it
when a job changes phase or owner and the team logs it outside Sage 50.
Watch out
the update needs the right project; map the reference you kept when the project was created.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext35

Read Project Transactions

ActionIn the docs only

You get the transactions posted to one project, the raw material for a margin check or a client report.

When to use it
when a project manager wants the figures of a job in a sheet without asking accounting.
Watch out
a busy project returns many bundles; plan an aggregator or a sheet destination that can take them all.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext36

Search Project Transactions

SearchIn the docs only

Filters transactions linked to projects by your criteria, which helps when you need a slice across several jobs rather than one project.

When to use it
to feed a dashboard that compares jobs side by side.
Watch out
pick between this search and Read Project Transactions: this one filters across projects, the other reads a single project.

Payments

1 module
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext37

Allocate a Payment on an Account

ActionIn the docs only

Allocates a payment to an account in Sage 50 from the scenario, so a payment logged in another tool is also reflected in your accounts.

When to use it
when your payment or bank tool records a payment that the finance team allocates by hand today.
Watch out
this changes balances; run it with Run once on a test amount and check the account in Sage 50.

Transactions

4 modules
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext38

Search Audit Headers

SearchIn the docs only

Searches the audit headers of your Sage 50 data, the entries of the audit trail, to find the postings that match your filter.

When to use it
when an accountant wants postings copied into a sheet for review or reconciliation outside Sage 50.
Watch out
results can be numerous, so filter narrowly and check the bundles after Run once.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext39

Create a Transaction

ActionIn the docs only

Posts a transaction to Sage 50 from inside the scenario, for entries that are neither an invoice nor an order.

When to use it
when another app records a movement, such as a fee or a transfer, that accounting must enter.
Watch out
this writes directly into the books; test on a sample with Run once and have an accountant review the result before activation.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext40

Search Audit Splits

SearchIn the docs only

Digs into the audit splits, the detail lines of the audit trail, when a header alone does not tell you enough.

When to use it
when reconciling a posting line by line in a spreadsheet, or checking how an amount was spread across accounts.
Watch out
use it after Search Audit Headers to keep the volume manageable; a broad search on splits returns many bundles.
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext41

Search Audit Usages

SearchIn the docs only

Pulls the audit usage records from your Sage 50 audit trail that match your search, handed to the next module as bundles: zero, one or several. The documentation lists the module without describing it, so open it in your scenario to see which filters it offers.

When to use it
after Search Audit Headers or Search Audit Splits, when your review needs the usage side of the same audit trail.
Watch out
run it once and check what comes back before you build later steps on it.

Universal

1 module
Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext42

Make an API call

ActionIn the docs only

Opens up anything the Hyperext API can do, reusing the connection you already set up, even where none of the other modules reaches. This is the way out when the listed modules stop short of what you need.

When to use it
when a record or operation you need has no dedicated module in the app.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so test it with Run once before you switch the scenario on.

FAQ

Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext and Make: common questions

01Is the Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext Make integration free?
Yes on the Make side: it is a standard app, available from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, a minimum of 15 minutes between scheduled runs, 5 minutes per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams, Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes per run, with usage counted in operations per month. On the Hyperext side, the app requires a paid Hyperext account with a Sage 50 API; check the subscription terms with Hyperext.
02What do you need to connect Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext to Make?
A Make account and a paid Hyperext account with a Sage 50 API. Hyperext Support provides the two values the connection asks for: a URL and an AuthToken. In any module of the app, click Create a connection, optionally name it, paste the URL and the token, then click Save and confirm access if Make asks. The connection is created once and every module of the app reuses it, so there is no need to repeat the step for each new scenario.
03Does Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext trigger a Make scenario in real time?
No. The app has no trigger module, scheduled or instant, so a change in Sage 50 does not start anything by itself. There are two ways to start. Put a trigger from another app first, for example the tool where sales or forms arrive; if that trigger is instant, the scenario starts as soon as that app calls Make. Or set a schedule on a first Sage 50 module such as Search Sales Invoices: a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default, and 1 minute is the shortest interval on a paid plan.
04What if a Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API call. This app has that universal module, which calls any endpoint of the Hyperext API with the same connection, so it reaches what the 42 listed modules do not cover. You need to know which endpoint you want, which makes it more technical than the other modules. The Make documentation gives no limits for this app, so when a run fails, start by reading the bundles shown after Run once and the error on the module that stopped.
05Make or n8n for Sage 50 Accounts by Hyperext?
It depends on the criteria that matter to your team. On Make, this app comes with 42 ready modules, 31 actions and 11 searches over customers, suppliers, orders, invoices, projects and transactions, plus Make an API call for the rest. This page only documents the Make side, so if you consider n8n, check whether a node exists for this app and whether it covers the records you need. The n8n vs Make comparison linked earlier on this page lays out the general criteria without ranking either tool.
