Accounting Integration: Sage300 Instructions
Tenna Integration Instructions for sage300
Overview
Tenna's integration with sage300 (through Ryvit) provides contractors with the construction-specific solutions they need to streamline project workflows, gain deeper insight into financial health, improve collaboration and digitize operations.
- Unlike other integrations, sage300 integration does not require a login connection
- Back end connection through Ryvit
- Front end shows which items are connected once integrated
Connected Data
- Sites - read only in Tenna - coming from sage300
- Assets - bidirectional - flows both ways
A 'lock' functionality is implemented to certain elements and actions to avoid bad data (E.g. Edit Site needs to be blocked if a true sage300<>Tenna integration is enabled to local mismatch vs. Vista's system of record).
