What is Exact Online?

Exact Online is a cloud-based accounting package offered by the Dutch software company Exact. It provides a wide range of features, including invoicing, contact management, financial reporting and analysis, and project management. One of the key advantages of using Exact Online is that it can be connected to other business applications, such as the i-Reserve online reservation system. This form of integration can automate many tasks and save businesses time and money.

How does the integration between i-Reserve and Exact Online work?

The integration between i-Reserve and Exact Online is a one-way connection, via the Exact Online API. This means that data from the i-Reserve reservation system is sent to Exact Online. In most cases, invoices will be used to transfer financial data from the reservation. In some cases, reservation data may also be used. This means you no longer need to manually enter invoice data into your accounting package.
The most commonly used setup for the integration between the i-Reserve reservation system and Exact Online is that the debtor — along with financial data — is periodically transferred from i-Reserve to Exact Online.
