Importing of Sales Orders Is Theoretically Possible!

I can see from various forums that this topic has been around for literally years!

I understand that this is not possible today from standard Sage, but I have been informed it is possible through 3rd party developers.  So why has Sage not integrated this as a standard import function?

With most applications now able to output CSV/XLSX/Email/etc...  Why are we still having to retype SOs in to sage?

Am I missing something fundamental?  Having just completed a review of 'Error Sources', having to manually re-enter data, that was already in an electronic form, came top!

Is the fact that this obviously beneficial feature is missing a marketing ploy?

    My web store can post an XML record of a sale to web server I have in the office, then I extract that data with a PHP script into a directory my PC can see.  The Adept Sales Order import tool then picks that up and creates a sales order. So it is a multi-stage thing, but I managed to get it automated.  Seems to be working very well for me so far.
