      setup acct integration step 5 3
    2. Click the dropdown list and select one of the available accounts.

    3. Click check blue. The account is now mapped.

Import organization and contact data

This is an optional step but completing it ensures that the synchronization between VOGSY and your accounting software is as complete and accurate as possible by importing the records of the customers and suppliers stored in your accounting software.

  1. VOGSY will inform you about which categories of data it can import from your accounting software. The options are dependent upon the level of integration that you chose in step 2 of the setup process. A Level 1 integration can import customer contacts, while a Level 2 integration permits you to import both customer and supplier contact data.

    setup acct integration step 7 step 1

    Complete the following fields:

    • Select the default VOGSY payment condition. The options available are extracted from your Payment conditions back office settings.

    • Select the sales tax to use if there is no corresponding setting in your accounting software. The options available are extracted from your VAT types back office settings.

    • Import customers that were created or modified after this date. Set a date here to include only records that were created or updated on or after the date that you specify.

    • Also import customers when they were invoiced after this date. Set a date here to include only the records of customers or suppliers who were invoiced on or after the date that you specify.

      Then click Select organizations to import and VOGSY will display a list of records based on your selection criteria.

    setup acct integration step 7 step 2
  1. For each record that you want to import, do the following:

    1. Select the record’s Import checkbox. It is automatically selected if there are no errors that require your attention.

    2. VOGSY will try to match the organization’s name to an organization in its database. If it finds a match the drop-down will display the Map to organization option. If there is no match, the drop-down will display the Import as a new organization option, which means VOGSY will create a new organization when it imports the record.

      If a new organization is to be created in VOGSY, any unmet requirements for the creation of the organization will be displayed in orange. For example, VOGSY requires an email to be set for an organization will display to alert you to the fact that you will need to supply a contact person’s email address in order to complete the import process. Use the Open in … button to open the record in your accounting software and provide the missing information there.
  2. Click Import.

Synced fields - Sage

The following tables list the data values that are synced between VOGSY and Sage.

Some of the data that is synced displays on a form in VOGSY or the target software. If the data value is associated with a field that displays to the user, the name of the field is listed in the Field name column in bold. If the data value is not associated with a field that displays to the user, the data name is listed in the Field name column in a monospace font. These conventions are used in order to give you a complete understanding of the data that is synced.
The During setup column indicates whether or not the listed item is fetched from Quickbooks Online during the mapping stage of the integration setup. These items are not stored in VOGSY’s database during the setup.
