How to: Connect Multiple Sage Intacct Instances
Learn how to connect, rename, and manage multiple Sage Intacct instances directly from the ERP Integration tab in Followup CRM.
Step 1 — Open the ERP Integration tab
-
In Followup CRM, go to Settings → ERP Integration.
-
Locate Sage Intacct under your connected integrations.
-
You’ll see your current connection. The integration now supports multiple Sage Intacct instances. ➕
Step 2 — View connected instances and rename
-
Click the settings dropdown (⚙️) next to the Sage Intacct integration.
-
The dropdown displays all connected instances.
-
To rename one, click the pencil icon (✏️) — by default, the instance name reflects the name from your Sage Intacct account.
-
Rename it to something recognizable, like “Finance - Production” or “Finance - Sandbox”.
Step 3 — Add a new connection
-
Click the plus sign (➕) to add another Sage Intacct instance.
-
Follow the on-screen prompts to authenticate and connect.
-
Once connected, the page reloads and your new instance appears in the dropdown list. ✅
Step 4 — Configure settings and module mappings
-
Click any listed instance to open its specific settings.
-
The Module Mappings window will load for that connection. 🔎
-
The header will always display which instance you’re viewing — making it easy to confirm you’re editing the correct one. 🏷️
Step 5 — Switch between instances
-
To switch to another connection, close the current one using the X (❌) in the window.
-
Open the dropdown (⚙️) again and select a different instance.
-
The system updates in real time, loading the settings for the newly selected connection. 🔁⚡
Step 6 — Best practices
-
Use clear and descriptive instance names (e.g., Acme - Sandbox, Acme - Production). ✏️📌
-
Keep documentation of which Followup CRM properties are mapped to which Sage Intacct fields for each instance. 🗂️📄
-
Each connection can have unique module mappings — configure them per instance to avoid errors. 🔧✅
-
Test each new connection with a sample record before syncing data broadly. ✔️🔁
