Getting started...

Get Connected

Have a user with practice administrator user permissions enter Practice Settings

  • Go to the Integrations tab
  • Hover the BGL row and select the action menu 3_dot.png and press Connect for the BGL products you would like to connect.
  • Go through the BGL login process to authorise AccountKit's access.
  • AccountKit will now retrieve the superfunds within SimpleFund360 and link them to a client in AccountKit where it can find a match. 
  • During the matching process, the actions carried out are as follows
    1. Look for match via ABN
    2. Look for match via Name
    3. Where a match is found, but the ABN field is empty or incomplete in AccountKit, the ABN field will be automatically populated and where connected, push this change into Xero Practice Manager.

How do you use it?

After completing the syncing process, inevitably there will be some exceptions to deal with. This is where the exceptions report comes into it. The report lists any differences between the Authorised clients in AccountKit as compared to those with SimpleFund360 superfund list.

Managing your Simplefund 360 Exceptions

To get to the report, simply head there via one of two locations

  1. Utilise the shortcut via the notification you would receive after a sync
  2. If you have access to practice settings, you can access the report via the 3 dot menu on the integrations tab.

The exceptions you are likely to come across and the way to fix them includes

  1. First go to your Practice Settings to ensure business types have been setup correctly, ATO Client Type of "self managed superannuation fund" or "superannuation fund" for each applicable entity type. We use this as a consistent method to filter by.

  2. Where the client is in AccountKit on the left, but not in the Simplefund360 list on the right.
