Send a Budget to ERP Integrations for Accounting Acceptance

Objective

Background

After you create and/or update a project's budget in Procore, you will want to send the new and updated data in the Budget tool to your company's ERP Integrations tool. Typically, a project manager. Once the data is successfully sent to the ERP Integrations tool, it can then be accepted or rejected for export to Sage 100 Contractor® by your company's accounting approver.

    • The export from Procore to Sage 100 Contractor® is complete and the exported entries have been manually posted to Sage 100 Contractor® using its Job Cost function. See your Sage 100 Contractor® Help system for instructions 
    • The synced data is visible in the Job Costs Report. See View Job Costs Report. 
      Notes:
      • After posting entries in your Sage 100 Contractor® Job Cost function, the data will sync back to Procore according to the set schedule. See View the Sync Schedule Page for Sage 100 Contractor®.
      •  If you want to expedite the sync back to Procore, you may the On-Demand Sync option via the hh2 synchronization client. See Perform an On-Demand Sync. 
• Additional Information:
  • If your budget includes Procore Sub Jobs that you want to export to Sage 100 Contractor® as an 'Extra' (a.k.a., 'Phase'), the sub job information in the Budget will also be sent the ERP Integrations tool.

   This reveals the Budget page. 
2. In the 'Budget' page, under 'Cost Code Detail', review the budget's line items.

3. When you are ready to send your budget to the ERP Integrations tool for acceptance by an accounting approver, click Send to ERP (or, if you've previously sent the budget, click Re-send to ERP).
   
   
    

4. After you sync the budget for the first time, you can also sync an updated Procore budget to Sage 100 Contractor®.
   Note: If you are updating a Procore budget that has been synced with Sage 100 Contractor®, see Create a Budget Line Item and Create a Budget Modification.

The system sends the original budget and budget modifications to the ERP Integrations tool where it can be accepted or rejected for export to Sage 100 Contractor® by an accounting approver.
