Source Connection
A source connection in DataSync defines how the system connects to your Sage Intacct database to extract and refresh data. Creating source connections is required before you can load or synchronize tables in your data warehouse.
Create two types of source connections. If you need OLAP cubes, create a third source connection:
| Source Connection | Description |
|---|---|
| Refresh | Use for tables that can be loaded incrementally and kept up-to-date with regular refreshes. Optionally, add a property if you need to add Sage Intacct custom fields. |
| No Refresh | Use for tables that cannot be loaded incrementally and are not refreshed automatically. |
| Cubes | For Sales and Finance OLAP cubes: Requires one additional data source. |
