The Intacct Connector is designed to allow you to move data into and out of Intacct's On-Demand Financial Application Suite. As an Intacct user, you can use Boomi AtomSphere's Intacct connector to integrate any on-premise applications and legacy systems with Intacct. This connector may also be used for integrating Intacct with other On Demand or SaaS based applications such as Salesforce.
Unlike some of the other available connectors, the Intacct connector does not connect to the Intacct application and browse the interfaces real-time. However, Boomi AtomSphere provides the most up-to-date interface definitions for you to browse and choose from in order to complete your necessary integrations. If any of your Intacct modules are customized with additional fields, these fields may then be added manually to the standard interface with Boomi AtomSphere.
Integrating with Intacct consists of an XML request/response setup over an HTTPS connection. The technical details of this connection such as request headers, error handling, HTTPS connection, etc. are all abstracted from the user to make implementation quick and easy.
Connector Configuration
Configuring a connector to communicate with Intacct requires the setup of two different components, the connection and connector operation. This design allows for reusability of the components, which contain connection settings such as username, password, etc. Once your connection and connector operation are built, you will need to set up your connector within the process model. When your connector is configured properly within your process, Boomi AtomSphere will be able to map to and from virtually any system using the Intacct connector to retrieve data from or send data to the Intacct application.
Prerequisites
In order to implement a connection to your Intacct account from Boomi AtomSphere, you'll need to complete the following:
- You must confirm that your Intacct account is subscribed to the XML Gateway and has privileges to connect to the Intacct API. Your Intacct representative can confirm this for you by providing you with a Sender ID and password specific to the integration API.
- An atom must be deployed on your local machine or hosted with Boomi AtomSphere
- You must know what Intacct URL you should connect to. The default is https://www.intacct.com/ia/xml/xmlgw.phtml
, but this should be confirmed by Intacct for your specific implementation.
- You must understand which interface(s) you'd like to integrate from a business process perspective. For example, you may want to upload sales orders into Intacct from a flat file.
- You should also have the "Intacct XML Library vXXX.rtf" document available for interface reference. Staying with the same example, if you'd like to import Sales Orders, the SOTransaction is the object that you should map to. This documentation, provided by Intacct, gives full details of each individual field within the interface.
- You should review and reference Boomi AtomSphere's Pre-Loaded Intacct processes and use them as a guide for building and customizing your own interfaces.
