Integration Settings
Create Linked Account
Create a linked Exact online Account when creating an Account?
Set to YES to automatically create a new Account in Exact Online. This account is linked to the Account in Exact Online, so invoices posted are associated with this account.
Update Linked Account
Update a linked Exact Online Account when editing an Account?
Set to YES to keep linked contacts in Exact Online up-to-date with information in OnRent. When you edit an account in OnRent that’s linked to an Exact Online Account, OnRent will update Account information in Exact Online too.
Default Journal Code
Select your default journal code from Exact Online, this will assign the journal code to the invoices that get posted to Exact Online.
Revenue group mappings
As mentioned above, products, services and additional charges in OnRent are assigned a revenue group for rental and sale. In this section, you map revenue groups in OnRent to Exact G/L Accounts.
You’ll see a list of your revenue groups on the left and a list of Exact G/L Accounts on the right. Map each account here.
Tax rate mappings
In this section, make links between tax rates in OnRent and Exact Online.
These mappings are used when posting an invoice to Exact Online in order to set the Exact invoice line item’s tax rate based on the OnRent invoice item’s tax rate.
You’ll see a list of your tax rates on the left and a list of Exact Online tax rates on the right. Map each tax rate here.
Multiple tax components
A tax rate in Exact Online can consist of multiple tax rates (rate percentages) to cater for regions where both state and city tax is applicable. Within OnRent the state and city tax rate percentages are created as separate tax rates and combined using a tax rule.
With such a tax configuration, link both OnRent tax rates to the same Exact online tax rate.
Activate Integration
Review all of your settings, then when you’re happy press the 'Active' slider at the top to YES.
When the slider is set to YES, the Exact online options become visible in OnRent system, e.g. you’ll now see a linked Exact Online Account in your OnRent Accounts.
