Overview
This guide will walk you through establishing a connection required for the Sage Intacct integration. It is divided into three sections.
Section 1: Before You Begin
Sage Intacct Administrator Role
- The Customer must have the administrator role and will create a new Intacct Role for the integration and designate Paylocity as an Intacct web services user who can make web services requests via Intacct's API only. This limitation provides greater security than allowing a standard Sage Intacct user to make such requests.
Important Notes
- The Customer's company must have a Web Services subscription in Sage Intacct.
