Integration Settings

Administration > System Setup > Integration Settings

Integration Settings determines the file type for general ledger account export files, the invoice export settings files, and reimbursement export settings created from the Transaction Search page on the Parks & Rec tab.

Financial System Selection

Your selection from the Financial System drop-down in the top-right corner of the page determines what exports appear on individual cards below the selection.

Export File and Service Setup

To set up an export file or service, click the corresponding export card to expand it:

To have a File or Service generated from the export page, move the corresponding toggle button to the right, and click the SAVE button under the Financial System field:

Depending on the financial system selected, additional fields may be available on the File and Service cards. The availability of the File and Service cards themselves also depends on the system selected.

The Service card always contains fields for the selection of a destination URL, user name and password. The password may be typed in manually or pasted in using Ctrl+V. The right-click > paste option is not available.

Use the Allow Manual Export check box on the File and Service cards to enable and disable manual export buttons on the corresponding export pages:

Selecting this check box on the File card enables a green export button on the corresponding export page with the word File in parentheses. Selecting the check box on the Service card enables a green export button with the word Service in parentheses. Selecting the check box on both export types enables both export buttons, one for file and one for service, as shown below:

Those using the Munis charge code service can verify their service and the returned charge codes directly from the Integration Settings page:

The charge codes returned will be available for selection in the Charge Code drop-down on the individual Fee Details pages in Administration.

Automation Schedule

The Integration Settings page also provides an Automation Schedule card that lets you automatically generate a file or a service on existing exports and tie it to a schedule; for example, you may have an export file run on a selected day of the week and time and dropped into an available file path location on the server:

For the File or Service option to be available as a selection in the Type field, the toggle must be in the active position on the corresponding card:

To verify the server containing the file is able to drop the file into the Download Location specified or, in the case of a service, the https request is able to reach the URL specified, click the VERIFY button. You will receive a message telling you whether the location is valid:

An invalid message instructs you to make sure the application has create and update access to the location.

Note: You may set up an automation schedule for a file or a service, not both.

To save your selections on the Integration Settings page, click the SAVE button under the Financial System field.

View System Logs

The View System Logs button at the bottom of the Integration Settings page opens a System Logs page containing export history, with each export displayed on a card:

Each card shows the type of export, the method (file or service and manual or automated), the number of records exported, the date and time of the export and the status of the export.

Action Menu

Click the vertical ellipsis on the far-right of any system log card to open an action menu with options to view and download export details:

View File

For a file, the View option opens a pop-up that shows the date of the export, whether it was run automatically or manually, the parameters used to run the export and the result—in this case, the name of the actual file created. If the export was run manually, the name of the user who ran it displays:

View Service

In addition to providing the same information as the file pop-up, the service pop-up includes details of the actual request that was sent:
