Sandbox refreshes—Sage People Integration

Sage People and the Sage People Integration is based on Salesforce. Salesforce allows you to create copies of your production organizations, called sandboxes.

It's common to test integrations by creating a link between an Intacct sandbox and a Salesforce sandbox. After you’ve tested that the integration works, you can then integrate production environments.

Salesforce sandbox refreshes provide a way to update and test your Advanced CRM Integration before moving any new configurations into your production environments.

Supported sandbox relationships between Sage People and Sage Intacct.

You cannot connect multiple Intacct companies to a single Salesforce organization. For example, different Intacct entities under a distributed Intacct console cannot be connected to a single Salesforce organization.

Sandbox refresh process

The Sage People Integration supports Salesforce sandbox refreshes. A sandbox refresh requires a re-initialization of your data.

Refresh your Salesforce sandbox

Refreshing a Salesforce sandbox updates the metadata for the sandbox from its source org.

For more information about refreshing your Salesforce sandbox, go to https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=data_sandbox_refresh.htm.

Clear your subscription data

After your Salesforce sandbox has been refreshed, go to the Intacct configuration page in Salesforce and select the Clear Subscription Data button.

Intacct transactions, such as Intacct OE sales invoices and Intacct Contracts information are deleted from your Salesforce sandbox. Other information, such as Accounts Receivable terms or Locations, remain in the sandbox. The Advanced CRM Integration will match existing records in both systems when you reinitialize your data.

See Clear subscription data—Sage People Integration for more information.
