We Recommend the following steps

To gain the most value from the accounting integration, follow the below steps:

  1. Import your customers from Exact to Solvimon
  2. Use Solvimon to create Draft Invoices
  3. Review and Edit invoices within Solvimon Desk as needed
  4. Finalise and send invoices to customers using Solvimon
  5. Invoices are automatically synced with Exact for revenue recognition and general accounting purposes

Once the integration is in place there can be multiple ways to setup the synchronisation. Its by default trigger based for updating the list but custom triggers can also be handled and for such requirements you can reach out to your sales executive for further assistance

You can now view your desired data on the Solvimon Desk and vice versa on your Exact platform based on the integrations chosen.
