How do I connect my accounting software via BillSync?

⚠️ Important: This article is about the BillSync integration via the accountant portal. Are you an in-house accountant without access to the accountant portal? Then contact us via the Help button in the platform.

What is BillSync?

BillSync is a Windows service that you install on a PC or server. It takes care of the automatic synchronisation between Billit and your accounting software. With BillSync, you can:

  • Automatically download UBL, CODA and other files (such as reports or documents) to local folders.
  • For Expert/M and Adsolut, send additional data back to Billit, such as customers, suppliers, general ledger accounts and booking details (bidirectional integration).

Important if you are installing BillSync:

Are you installing BillSync yourself or having an IT partner do it?
Then make sure of the following:

  1. Create a (temporary) user via Settings > Users in the accountant portal for the person who will carry out the installation.
  2. Make sure you have access to the PC or server with administrator rights so that software can be installed.

  • Group receipts per payment method (BillSync)
    Down

    Are your business owners' client files connected via BillSync? Then, when exporting to your accounting software, you can now also choose to bundle receipts per payment method instead of per category.

    To set this up, go to the client file concerned in your accountant account and click the BillSync integration in the 'Integrations' submenu of the Settings menu. You will then see a screen where you can set the export options for this client file. There is a 'Group if possible' item for both sales and purchase invoices.

    If you activate the option for sales invoices, the following happens on export:

    • All invoices where no VAT number is linked to the customer (private individuals) are bundled into 1 UBL per month.
    • For all invoices where a VAT number is linked to the customer, one UBL is exported per invoice.

    If you activate the option for purchase invoices, the following happens on export:

    • All invoices that are not linked to a supplier with a VAT number are exported into 1 UBL per payment method and per month. (Since receipts are saved with the category as the supplier name, and therefore without a VAT number, these are the receipts in the client file.)
    • For all invoices where a VAT number is linked to the supplier, one UBL is exported per invoice.
