Managing Ledger Accounts and Syncing Data

• In the Sage Add-On section, you will see a list of ledger accounts already created in your Sage account.
• You can create new ledger accounts using the Create button.
• Next to the Create button, you’ll find a Sync Data button that syncs your accounts between Dash SaaS and Sage.
• When you click Sync, the platform will push created accounts to Sage and fetch updates from Sage as well.
• Any changes made on either system will be reflected on the other after syncing, maintaining accuracy across platforms.
• Then comes the refresh token button, if you click on that button you can also refresh the token easily.

Invoice Creation and Payment Tracking

• Once the Add-On is active, while creating an invoice, you can select a Sage ledger account from a dropdown menu.
• This ensures that your invoice is linked directly to an appropriate Sage account at the time of creation.
• When the invoice payment is completed, the system will automatically record a payment entry in Sage.
• This removes the need for double-entry and ensures that both systems always reflect the latest transaction status.
