Linking the Import Set to the Actuals Dataset.
A separate connection is created for each dossier and financial year.
Creating a Connection
Creating a Connection
To create a connection:
-
Select the correct dossier in Factview.
-
Choose the appropriate administration from the accounting system.
-
Sign in with your account credentials, including two-factor authentication (2FA) if required.
-
Complete the connection process.
Factview will then establish the connection and retrieve the financial data automatically.
Managing Connections
After a connection has been created:
-
All connections are displayed in the management screen.
-
Existing connections can be updated or modified.
-
New financial periods can be imported.
Factview does not perform automatic background updates.
-
Connections must be updated manually by the user.
-
This gives you full control over your reporting data.
-
It also prevents figures from changing unexpectedly during a reporting period.
