Connecting an Accelo Record to Practice Ignition

Once you've enabled the Practice Ignition integration, you can immediately begin connecting your work in Accelo to your Practice Ignition data. When a connection is made, new links will be created directly between the Accelo record and Practice Ignition, making it easy to access all of your client's proposals. To make that connection, simply follow these steps:

  1. Open the record in Accelo which you'd like to link.  This link can be made from any record, including the company itself, but sales are the most common one to link.
  2. Locate the Practice Ignition logo, found in the bottom left-hand corner of the page, and click Add

  4. Enter a Title which describes the content of your link.  This title will appear on the page in Accelo, and is a great way to differentiate between multiple clients.
  5. Click Connect.  The link is made, and you're all done!

If you have multiple client records which you're tracking in Practice Ignition for a single client in Accelo, you can make multiple links from one Accelo record to Practice Ignition. To add additional links, simply click the Add button again.

 

Configuring your Practice Ignition Integration's options

Practice Ignition Links
pi links

When you connect an Accelo record to a Practice Ignition client, Accelo will create direct links to the client and proposals which you're tracking in Practice Ignition. By default, that list includes all of the following records:

  • Proposals
  • Clients

These checkboxes allow you to hide records in Accelo which you don't actually manage in Practice Ignition, eliminating irrelevant links for your team. For example, if you don't manage your proposals in Practice Ignition, simply uncheck the Proposals box to hide that link. All of the enabled links will be displayed on every Accelo record which you link to Practice Ignition.

When the Practice Ignition integration is enabled, you can link any record in Accelo to Practice Ignition. The Available On settings can then be used to hide the Practice Ignition link on certain types of records in Accelo. The available records include:

Each Accelo company, project, retainer, etc. can be linked to a separate client in Practice Ignition.  This is crucial if you have a single client which you manage as multiple clients in Practice Ignition.  However, if you manage each client as a single client record, it can be much simpler to only make the link from the Accelo company record.
