How does the Intacct Integration work?
This is a feature that is available through our Professional Plan.
Emburse Spend has a direct integration with Intacct. This means that we can sync expense data directly into Intacct, no export or import required!
When data syncs to Intacct, each expense will be automatically booked to the correct expense account, eliminating lots of manual data entry. Emburse Spend can also sync to Class, Department, Location, Customer, and Item information.
How does Emburse Spend sync reimbursable expenses to Intacct?
For reimbursable expenses, Emburse Spend creates a bill and a bill payment in Intacct. Every evening, Emburse Spend will debit your company bank account for the sum of expenses approved that day. When the debit is created, we will sync a bill and a bill payment for that debit amount.
The bills will be created in the Accounts Payable module:
Here's what an individual bill will look like:
Navigate to Accounts Payable > Posted Payments to find the bill payments:
FAQ on syncing reimbursable expenses to Intacct:
Q: Why is Emburse Spend the Vendor on the Bill?
A: We use a Bill and Bill Payment to make it efficient for you to reconcile to the periodic bank debits, while still giving you the full line item granularity for each expense that you need to properly roll up to the income statement, e.g. Account, Class, etc... a Bill can only have one Vendor, so Emburse Spend is the Vendor because we're responsible for the reimbursements.
Q: How often does Emburse Spend sync bills/bill payments into Intacct?
A: We will sync bill/bill payments once a day, for each day that Emburse Spend debits the company bank account. This generally corresponds with days that expenses are approved in Emburse Spend . (A small minority of companies have scheduled debits bi-weekly or bi-monthly, in which case the bills/bill payments would only sync on those days that we make debits).
How does Emburse Spend sync non-reimbursable Corporate Card transactions into Intacct?
Emburse Spend syncs corporate card expenses into Intacct as Charge-Card Transactions in your Cash Management module. In your Accounting Sync settings page, you will specify which register you want your corporate card transactions to sync to.
Navigate to the Entity connected to Emburse Spend, then Cash Management > Credit card transactions to find the Charge-Card transactions:
And here's what an individual Charge Card Transaction looks like:
What additional data can Emburse Spend sync to Intacct?
