Connecting to Sage Intacct
The Sage Intacct Integration does require SAGE INTACCT service and a TripLog Enterprise Account. If you are not currently on an Enterprise subscription the billing will be upgraded to enable the feature. Other versions of Sage and Sage software (eg Sage 50 are not supported). We do offer compatible reporting options for Sage50.
Setting Up the Connection:
Navigate to the Integrations menu and select Sage Intacct
Setting Up TripLog Access to Sage
Setting Up Sage Web Services
There is a requirement to complete and set up the Sage Web Services if you have not set up Sage Web Services on an integration prior to this connection on your account. If you do have other apps connected to your environment please skip to the relevant access steps for adding TripLog and the proper permissions for the integration.
Enabling Web Services
Select Applications > Company > Subscriptions
On the Subscriptions Page, there will be a selection toward the bottom of the screen called Web Services: Toggle to Enabled
Navigate to Company > Setup > Configuration > Company
Under Company Infomation > Web Service Authorizations Add a Sender ID
Click Edit
Scroll to the Web Services Authorizations and Click ADD
Add a New Sender ID as TripLogMPP
Then Save.
Ensure the added authorization is Active
Navigate to Company > Admin > Roles
On the Roles Page Click ADD
Add A Role called TripLog Webservice Role
On the newly added roles click on the Subscriptions button
You will need to add all permissions under the following Subscriptions
Company
General Ledger
Accounts Payable
Time and Expense (This service needs to be enabled in your account if you want to upload as Expenses vs Bills)
To allow these permissions click on the Permissions button to the right of the item to select. In the Company Permissions screen choose ALL then Save. Repeat for each required item to set up.
Receiving the Access Password
This process will generate the password used for the integration for access to the Web Services that was created. This user will need to be unique in that if you are self-serving it will need to be an email that is not in your account. If you are receiving assistance from TripLog in the onboarding then use yourcompany[email protected] as the email so we can receive the password and assist you. Otherwise you can receive this password and provide it to the onboarding team.
Company > Admin > Web Services Users
Under Web Service Users, Click ADD
Here is an example of the settings. USER ID is important and will be used for the integration link. Please record this as case-sensitive.
User Type = Business
Admin Privileges = Off
Go to the Roles Information Tab, Select the TripLog WebServices Role, and click Save
If you used your own email to receive the password then accept and record it.
You will use your Company ID, the configured User ID, and Password from this process
