Midwinter AdviceOS

Moneysoft CRM, Fact Find and Data Feed Integration Process – Midwinter AdviceOS CRM and Moneysoft PFM Data

Summary

When integrated, Moneysoft and AdviceOS deliver a powerful combination. The following guide runs through the set-up process in five short, easy to follow steps.

Ensure your AdviceOS version has the CRM and Fact Find module activated as this is where the data is integrated to. All AdviceOS sites will have the System Settings page as described enabled.

Note: You must ensure that the Moneysoft CRM Fact Find integration is enabled. If you are unsure please verify with your AdviceOS site administrator and confirm they have activated the Moneysoft CRM Fact Find integration.

If you have any questions or need any help with your own set-up, please email us at support@moneysoft.com.au or call us on 1300 850 878.
