Sage Intacct Data Source (Beta)
Sage Intacct is a cloud-based financial management and accounting platform. In SEI, the Sage Intacct data source is used for finance data only. When you connect to it, all data flows through the Sage Intacct Web Services API, which handles authentication, company access, and data retrieval on your behalf.
note
You cannot create or open views with the Sage Intacct data source.
