This setting configures how multiple users will send data from multiple Workflow Management Suite databases to one single Sage Timberline® Office Accounting database.
|
Note |
|
This setting is only applicable to clients that use multiple WMS databases to interface with one single Sage Timberline Office® Accounting database. |
Each WMS database represents a separate company. Multiple users within one company are automatically prevented from sending data from one WMS database to one Sage Timberline Office Accounting database at the same time. This safeguard is based on the company number in WMS.
By assigning a group number to multiple WMS databases (companies), users working in different companies are prevented from sending to the same Accounting database at the same time. Only one user identified with the group number will be allowed to send to accounting at any one time. Use the same value entered in the Send to Accounting Group Number field across all companies (i.e., companies do not require their own unique Send to Accounting Group Number); the "sorting" of the data will be based on the company number. This send to accounting group number is basically a way for one user to gain exclusive access to the Accounting database for sending purposes.
|
Note |
|
If a group number is not assigned to multiple databases (companies), the software will default to prevent sending concurrently by company number only. This can cause corruption in the Accounting database. |
Access the Integration menu > Accounting > Accounting Integration Settings.
Or, select the Accounting Integration Settings 
icon from the toolbar.
By default, the Send to Accounting Options tab opens.
Verify the accounting company currently selected in the Accounting Companies grid is the correct accounting company for which this setting will be defined. If necessary, click on a different accounting company.
Enter a 3-digit numeric code in the Send to Accounting Group Number field. This number should be the same across all companies.
