Custom Finance Integration

If your organisation does not use any of the finance packages we currently integrate with, we can potentially create a customised export to meet the specific requirements of your organisation and the finance package it uses. 

We require specification documentation for each export required by the finance package so that we can ascertain an accurate scope of work and provide cost and time estimates for the engineering work required.  

Most service providers choose to purchase  Support Contracts to pay for custom integrations as a way to minimise the costs.

Please note that all custom exports must be submitted to SupportAbility via your organisation's Authorised Representatives for estimation and approval. 


Creating a custom export specification

We require a Data Export Specification for any and all custom export requests. Please review the  Data Export Specification article for more information. Please also download our SupportAbility Custom Export Specification Toolkit to help design your custom export and communicate your requirements.
