Abacus API Accounts Receivable
AbaConnect XML Accounts Receivable Interface
Our time tracking solution, TimeStatement, provides an intuitive and easy-to-use interface with Abacus, an external financial accounting software. This allows you to export the invoices created in TimeStatement to the Abacus accounts receivable accounting with just a few clicks.
The export to Abacus is enabled via the AbaConnect XML file interface. The exchange of data via the AbaConnect XML file interface is done using XML files.
When you start the Abacus interface in TimeStatement, the corresponding booking data is saved in an XML file. You then simply have to read the generated XML file into the Abacus accounts receivable accounting. The TimeStatement to Abacus interface, a crucial component of our time tracking solution, is offered by us at no additional cost. Please contact your Abacus operator for the licensing of the AbaConnect XML accounts receivable interface on the Abacus site.
