no1tmorrow Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 We are a small business (50 or so employees) that have invested many years in Filemaker and have no desire to change. That being said we are currently running MAS90 or SAGE 100 depending on what you want to call it. We are thinking about changing and was wondering if anyone has connected Filemaker to a 3rd party accounting package with success or if there is a company that integrates well with Filemaker. I realize I can import/export/script and make it work with any application (Filemaker is good like that) but wonder what everyone else is doing...

no1tmorrow Posted July 28, 2014 Author Share Posted July 28, 2014 ggt667, So communicating with Sage 100 is not the easiest? From your post do you integrate with it? Thanks Thom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swl Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 ProductiveComputing and one other provider both have plugins that let FM talk to QuickBooks through a PC native plugin that I believe is client-side only. If QB is in the cards, I would recommend looking at this. Otherwise, you can maybe look at building some form of middleware, or using PHP via the Scodigo or MBS plugins, that connects to Xero via their API or another accounting package. I am looking at using the HTTPpost functionality as the bridge to more robust integration options through my own PHP-based site that will integrate with various services and I think it's a world of opportunity for FM.
