Create expense category in Sage Intacct REST
Accounting API · write, waits for approval · 100% field coverage
Your agent can create expense category in Sage Intacct REST through Apideck's Accounting API, the same call it makes for every Accounting app. It changes data in the customer's Sage Intacct REST account, so it stops with the exact request until a person approves it. Apideck adds the customer's Sage Intacct REST credentials, so no token ever reaches the agent.
