How HireHop & Sage Business Cloud Work Together

Instead of manual batch exporting, HireHop communicates with Sage Business Cloud using a live, instant synchronisation loop:

  • Invoices & Credits: Invoices and credit notes created in HireHop are automatically pushed straight to Sage with no user intervention required.
  • Bi-Directional Payments: Enter payments or credits into HireHop to update Sage instantly, or pull cleared bank payments from Sage back into HireHop with a single click.
  • Seamless Contact Sync: Import your existing customers and suppliers from Sage on day one. HireHop will automatically generate and sync new contacts in Sage as invoices are raised.
  • Purchase Orders: Use HireHop’s internal purchase orders to easily reconcile against your incoming Sage purchase invoices.
  • Multi-Company Support: Run multiple Sage Business Cloud corporate profiles seamlessly within a single HireHop network.
  • Complete Automation Control: Choose to let HireHop update Sage completely automatically in real time, or review transactions first before performing a scheduled batch update.
